Travelers Rest, SC 29690

Perched at approximately 2,000 feet in elevation, this exceptional mountain retreat captures sweeping mountain vista views and the tranquil soundtrack of Gap Creek, highlighted by a striking 30-foot natural waterfall along the property. Encompassing 3.9 private acres and bordering 79 protected acres, the setting offers remarkable privacy, combined with preserved natural beauty. Upon entry, the residence unfolds with warmth and architectural intention. Eleven foot heart-of-pine floors sourced from the late 1800’s, and reclaimed maple countertops dating to the 1890’s create a sense of heritage and authenticity throughout. Natural light filters through thoughtfully placed windows and French doors, drawing the outdoors in and enhancing the home’s inviting ambiance. Unique architectural details—including charming porthole accents, a hidden door for storage seamlessly integrated into the mudroom, custom built-ins, and breeze doors with screened transoms—offer both character and function. The interiors feel curated yet comfortable, blending mountain craftsmanship with timeless design. Designed by Historical Concepts, renowned for their skill in combining traditional with vernacular architecture, and built in 2008 by Bluestone Construction, the home reflects architectural integrity and enduring quality. The kitchen balances beauty and performance with Thermador appliances, including a six-burner gas range, complemented by a farm sink, secondary hand sink, and a glass pass-through cabinet window. A built-in desk positioned between the kitchen and primary suite creates an ideal office nook. Living and entertaining spaces transition seamlessly outdoors to a screened porch featuring an outdoor stone fireplace with iron tie ceiling accents. Three sets of French doors open to the extended rear deck, rebuilt with TREX decking, welcoming mountain breezes and layered views. Outdoor living areas are perfectly positioned to capture the soothing, rhythmic sounds of the nearby waterfall, creating a peaceful backdrop for relaxing mornings and serene mountain evenings. A private guest wing offers its own entrance, creating a comfortable and secluded retreat for visitors. This wing features generously sized guest suites with board and batten walls and thoughtfully curated finishes, blending character with privacy while remaining connected to the main home. A newly constructed stone bridge provides a classic and welcoming private entrance to the guest wing. Separate from the main residence, a charming guest house provides additional flexibility for extended stays, an art studio, office, or workout space. Accessible by a stone walkway, as well as a dedicated golf cart path, the guest house enhances the estate’s versatility and sense of retreat. Its private patio captures truly spectacular mountain views, offering a stunning vantage point to relax, entertain, and take in the natural beauty that surrounds the property. Significant recent updates ensure turnkey confidence. The roof on both the main home and guest house was replaced in 2026. HVAC systems were updated in 2023, and a new driveway was installed in 2025. Gutters were added and the stone grilling patio was redone in 2024. The exteriors of both the home and guest house were repainted in 2025, and the screened porch was recently refreshed. The sellers will be passing along most of the furnishings to make this truly a home to enjoy right away. This is a rare convergence of architectural pedigree, thoughtful updates, natural preservation, and elevated mountain living—crafted for those who value privacy, authenticity, and enduring design. A membership to the Cliffs seven private communities is available for purchase.
