Description
Set within a quiet, wooded enclave along the water's edge, Inn the Cove is a fully renovated and purposely curated retreat. Surrounded by mature trees and positioned within a peaceful cove, the property offers a rare sense of privacy while remaining connected to the natural beauty and recreation of Lake Hartwell. A winding approach leads to the residence, where understated architecture and natural materials create an immediate sense of arrival. Inside, the home unfolds into a light-filled interior defined by vaulted ceilings, exposed wood beams, and expansive windows that draw the outdoors in. The main living space is both refined and relaxed, designed for gathering yet grounded in comfort, with seamless transitions that extend effortlessly to the surrounding landscape. At the heart of the home, the kitchen is both functional and beautifully composed, featuring an oversized island, quartz surfaces, a farmhouse sink, and custom cabinetry. It opens naturally to the dining and living areas, creating a cohesive environment. The residence offers four well-appointed bedrooms and three full baths, each space designed with a focus on simplicity, warmth, and livability. The main house features three bedrooms: The primary suite serves as a quiet retreat, with direct access to the outdoors and a connection to the surrounding landscape. Additional bedrooms include a thoughtfully designed bunk room and a guest bedroom. You will love the flexibility in the detached self-sufficient dedicated recreation space, currently arranged as a game room and lounge (and 4th bedroom with 4 beds!), offering a relaxed setting for gathering, entertaining, or extended stays. It has a full bathroom and large storage closet. Outdoors, the property continues to unfold with intention. Expansive new Trex decking provides multiple vantage points for dining, lounging, and quiet reflection, all framed by the natural surroundings and lake views. Just beyond, a private covered dock extends into the water, creating a seamless transition between land and lake ideal for boating, swimming, or simply taking in the stillness of the cove. Dock is seasonal in depth, and often from Spring thru fall accommodates power boats up to 4ft of depth in addition to pontoons or kayaks. A favorite route is to head left out of the cove and boat up into the narrows of north west Lake Hartwell into the wooded foothills of the mountains. The public boat ramp is just a 2 minutes drive away! Whether envisioned as a full-time residence, a refined weekend escape, or continuing as an established income-producing property (with outstanding reviews!), 159 Manor Oak Trail offers a lifestyle defined by privacy, connection, and effortless living. Offered fully furnished, you won't have to lift a finger before enjoying this retreat.
