A lakefront estate located in The Cliffs at Keowee Falls community in Salem, SC has been sold as the result of a live auction on May 6th. According to Platinum Luxury Auctions and Justin Winter Sotheby’s International Realty – the firms that cooperated for the sale – Oconee County property records show that the auction created the highest sales price within the lakeside community since 2011. While the exact sales price will not be released until closing, a representative for Platinum confirmed that the sales price was in excess of $2.1 million. The auction had a reserve price of $1.25 million. Miami-based Platinum worked in close cooperation with listing agent Justin Winter for the sale.
“Our team really enjoyed working with the folks in The Cliffs marketplace, and Justin Winter really engaged in the process and did a great job adding real value to our program,” stated Trayor Lesnock, Platinum’s founder and president. “We’re looking forward to exploring more market opportunities with his team.”
Situated on 1.8 private acres and boasting 560 linear feet of lake frontage on Lake Keowee, the property attracted five bidders who gathered on its waterfront terrace to competitively bid for the opportunity to own the home. Platinum reported that the winning bidder was a financial services professional who had been looking at lake homes in the South Carolina and Georgia markets for some time.
Boasting an English manor-inspired design, the +6,000-square-foot residence features four bedrooms, four full and two half baths. Morgan-Keefe luxury homebuilders, Neal Prince and Partners design, and Pulliam-Morris decorators in Columbia, South Carolina were recruited by the property owner to build the estate, which was completed in 2006.
Features include a gourmet kitchen with separate butler’s pantry, executive wood-paneled study, and spacious lakeside terraces and balconies. Additional amenities include a covered boat dock with lift, wood-burning fireplaces, fitness room, outdoor barbecue grilling station, and a 3-vehicle garage.
