Dramatic arch-shaped, castle-like doors open to a large concrete apron ideal for parking, gatherings, or overflow entertaining. A walk-in concrete vault offers flexibility as a custom wine cellar/tasting room or secure hunter’s storage, while the adjacent stone-walled theatre room with coffered ceiling delivers cinematic movie nights.Outside awaits even more: a large treehouse, boathouse, private boat ramp, RV hookups, irrigation system, and beyond.This rare, upgraded gem delivers unmatched value and endless possibilities on Lake Wateree. Don’t miss this extraordinary masterpiece — schedule your private tour today and claim your forever lakefront legacy! Disclaimer: CMLS has not reviewe
