It’s the Time of Year to “Fall” in Love with Lake Life Again!
Lake Keowee in the Upstate of South Carolina is the Lake Tahoe of the Southeast. Lake Keowee is beautiful because of the dedicated people that care about it including Friends of Lake Keowee Society (FOLKS) and Advocates for Quality Development (AQD). We report on the four categories of Lake Keowee properties: Waterfront homes, off water homes, also referred to as “interior” homes, waterfront homesites and off water homesites. Closed sales prices for homes and lots are interesting!
With over three hundred miles of shoreline and 26.1 miles long, you have selected or will choose the neighborhood that meets your lifestyle wants and needs. You will find full golf course memberships to neighborhoods with a clubhouse, pool, tennis-pickleball, boat slips, and trails to neighborhoods with no amenities at all. Some neighborhoods allow for short term rentals while others do not. The golf course communities are presented separately along with non-golf course that we aggregate as “OTHER” Lake Keowee properties. We always embed our four Excel spreadsheets for Waterfront Homes, Interior/off water Homes, Waterfront Homesites, and Interior/off water homesites in our electronic market report. Each one has tabs at the bottom that you can click on to provide details on each sale closed this yearto-date, pending sales, and active listings. Below is a quick summary and we invite you to read the rest.
