530 Magellan Drive West Union, SC 29696

A true mountain lake gem! A nearly flat lot, easy build site, clear, swimmable and navigable water, shallow at the beach, deep at the covered dock, all this, in the highly desired and luxurious Wellington Pointe subdivision. Your future home will sit only 6 miles from shopping, the hospital, medical... facilities, and restaurants in the town of Seneca. 530 Magellan is arguably the easiest to build upon lakefront lot currently available on the shores of Lake Keowee. The slope is very mild and would easily allow for a single story ranch style home. If instead, you desire a nearly flat walk to the beach and your private dock, you could build a walk-out basement style home. Either way, the majority of the windows on the home will enjoy expansive water and island views. Electric, Water, Natural Gas, Cable, Phone and Internet are all available at the street and septic permit is approved and available. Wellington Pointe is a planned unit development which is nearly built out, with multi-million dollar homes, so the value of just about any home you build here should be supported by the neighborhood value. This lot is next to an owner that has kept the adjacent lot as a driveway access and parkland style buffer for the last decade. This lot has just over 100 feet of shoreline which has been rip-rapped with granite stones to prevent future erosion. There is also a stone staircase entry to a sandy beach area right in the middle of the waterfront where you will enjoy swimming and launching a kayak or canoe. In addition, there is a full size, covered Kroeger Aluminum dock which is big enough to allow for two slips (subject to Duke permitting). The current configuration is one slip and a large, covered entertainment patio with a dock box for storage. The dock was moved out to deeper water and secured by metal pilings so there are no annoying cables in your swimming area. Lets talk about the lake... Lake Keowee is approximately 18,000 acres and has at least 300 miles of shoreline. The water is deep and clear and supports power generation and municipal water supply for a vast portion of Upstate South Carolina. Lake Keowee is owned by Duke Energy and docks/shoreline are used and modified by permit from Duke. Lake Keowee is an all-sports lake, which allows powerboats, jet skis, water skiing, wakeboarding, wake surfing, tubing, kayaking, fishing etc. There are even several hundred sail boats here. Awesome lakefront properties on clear, open water are becoming extremely rare. Do not miss this incredible lakefront opportunity! Continue reading
