About this home
Imagine turning off the main road, leaving the pace of the city behind, and arriving home to more than three private acres surrounded by mature trees and peaceful surroundings. A welcoming wraparound porch sets the tone for this exceptional Greenville property--a home that feels wonderfully removed from it all, yet sits just five minutes from the medical district and only minutes from The Oakwood School. Step inside and you'll find 3,528 square feet designed for comfortable everyday living, entertaining, and simply having room to spread out. The extensively renovated kitchen quickly becomes the heart of the home, anchored by an oversized island with plenty of space for gathering. Stainless steel appliances, a wine cooler, abundant cabinetry, and thoughtful updates make it just as functional for a quiet weeknight dinner as it is for hosting family and friends. Throughout the home, multiple living spaces allow everyone to find their own place. There's a dedicated home office for working or studying, four generously sized bedrooms, and three beautifully updated full baths. And when it's time for movie night, head upstairs to the third-floor bonus room, already set up as a home theatre--the perfect place to settle in and escape for a while. Large windows bring the outdoors in, filling the home with natural light while offering peaceful views across the surrounding acreage. Outside, the possibilities are just as inviting. Spend mornings with coffee on the wraparound porch, create the garden you've always wanted, let the kids explore, entertain beneath the trees, or simply enjoy the kind of privacy that is increasingly hard to find. A detached double-car garage adds even more flexibility with plenty of room for vehicles, storage, hobbies, or a workshop. This is the rare Greenville property that gives you the feeling of a private country retreat without asking you to give up the convenience of being close to everything. Space, privacy, extensive updates, and an exceptional location all come together in a home that truly offers the best of both worlds.
