14 River Ridge Rd is on a mountain ridge providing views across a beautiful mountain valley
This home is in a mountain ridge neighborhood overlooking a river valley, foothills and the southern end of the Blue Ridge escarpment. Morning light fills the front of the home. Sunsets can be experienced from the rear screen room and deck with a stunning, rare, panoramic, mountain horizon view of the iconic landmark, Table Rock Mountain. Also on the main floor is the owner’s suite with adjoining great room. Both rooms feature high ceilings, ample natural light and large triple window settings of Table Rock Mountain and foothills. The upper floor of the home features two spacious bedrooms and a full bath, all with mountain valley views directly facing Table Rock Mountain.
The basement includes a bonus room area, bath, guest bedroom, and a walk out deck ready for placing your swing or hammock with immersive timber and mountain views. Add a small kitchen to the basement and you have a separate living area. Two or three bluebird families nest close to the house every season. Multiple families of hummingbirds return to the upper deck every spring. Approximately 6 acres of the property are wooded, mountain terrain, crossed by a mountain stream, sloping down to the lower property line and a private swim, fishing and picnic area on the South Saluda River.
River areas are accessed by a beautiful and well maintained mountain trail. Perfect for hiking or biking. This mountain trail has shared easement rights with neighbors but is not open to the public. River Ridge is above Marietta, SC, and just minutes from all that both downtown Greenville and Travelers Rest have to offer. These two cities, with their Main Street restaurants, cafes, parks, performance venues and Saturday morning farmer’s markets are locally connected by the award winning 22 mile Swamp Rabbit Trail greenway. GSP International Airport is an easy 40 minute drive. Jocassee and Keowee lakes, Hendersonville, Asheville, Dupont State Forest, Table Rock State Park are nearby day trip destinations.
Cherokee Lane and River Ridge Rd are single lane roads in top condition with shoulder room and space for any oncoming traffic, all maintained by Greenville County. The drive to this home ends with a short interlude through timbered areas, past other mountain homes and could be your daily escape into the mountains.
