This unique tract combines prime river frontage with a private pond, offering a rare opportunity for a picturesque rural lifestyle. Perched on a hill, you can enjoy stunning sunset views to the west over your own pond, or choose to establish a homesite closer to the Saluda River for serene waterfront living.
This compact tract is a sportsman’s dream, brimming with recreational activities. The Saluda River provides options for duck hunting, fishing, and scenic boat rides downstream to Lake Murray. The private pond, stocked for fishing, also serves as a natural refuge for wood ducks and other waterfowl. Trails weave throughout the property, leading to partially cleared areas, old fields, and food plots that attract an array of wildlife, including wild turkey and white-tailed deer. The land’s vegetation ranges from brush and natural pine regrowth to mature oaks and hardwoods, creating a rich habitat for wildlife.
Several ideal homesites are located across the property. Upon entering, the initial hilltop offers scenic western views, while other homesite options can be found near the pond or river. With power already on-site and an existing well that may be salvageable, this property is prepared for your custom vision.
Though "rare" is often overused in real estate, this property truly lives up to the word - a unique opportunity to live and play on a one-of-a-kind landscape.
