About this home

Let's imagine a day at 124 Golden Bear Drive, where mornings begin on the screened porch with a warm cup of coffee beside a crackling stone fireplace as light spills across the Blue Ridge Mountains and the first golfers of the day reach the 3rd green of the Jack Nicklaus Signature course below. By midmorning, the golf cart is out of its own dedicated bay and heading for a tee time, a stop at the Village Market, or a cruise down to the marina. This Ridgeline-built golf course home sits between the Keowee Avenue gate and Reserve Boulevard, so the Orchard House clubhouse, pools, fitness center, tennis and pickleball courts, putting course, and lakeside trails are all just minutes away. Afternoons bring you back to 3,594 square feet featuring acacia hardwood floors, natural stone accents, and three stone fireplaces, where the kitchen is ready for whatever the evening holds, with Viking appliances including a 5-burner gas cooktop and double oven, granite countertops, rich wood cabinetry, and an island big enough for everyone to gather, complete with a Sharp drawer microwave beneath pendant lights. As the sun sets, the terraced yard leads down to the fire pit for stories and laughter under the stars. Overnight guests settle into upstairs bedrooms with long-range mountain views, while the primary suite offers its own quiet escape with a soaking tub, walk-in shower, and a well-designed walk-in closet. Even the office has a secret: a bookcase door that opens to sizable attic storage, beside a fourth bedroom currently used as a den. Behind the scenes, the home runs with ease thanks to premium three-zone HVAC, a tankless water heater, a whole-house Generac generator, an encapsulated crawl space with dehumidifier, first-floor laundry with Kenmore Elite washer and dryer, a two-car garage, and a 9 x 16 workroom. Life at The Reserve at Lake Keowee, a gated lake and golf community in Upstate South Carolina, is meant to be lived one beautiful day at a time. A $100,000 Premier Membership is required at closing.
