Few settings capture the Lake Toxaway lifestyle as immediately as this two-bedroom, four-bath lakefront pedestal home. The dock is just beyond the back door, reached across a gentle lawn, while views extend over the water to the surrounding mountain ridgelines. From sunrise on the deck to evenings beneath the covered lakeside porch, the home is designed around an effortless connection to the landscape. Inside, the living room makes a memorable impression with vaulted tongue-and-groove ceilings, exposed beams, a fireplace, and an expansive wall of windows framing the lake. Warm wood floors and natural textures create a relaxed atmosphere, while the room is equally comfortable for quiet evenings or lively gatherings. The kitchen offers granite countertops, a generous island with seating, stainless steel appliances, and an open connection to the dining area beneath another vaulted, beamed ceiling. The primary suite includes an adjoining sunroom currently used as an office, where windows capture the lake and mountains from multiple angles. A private balcony extends from the sunroom, creating an intimate perch for morning coffee or a quiet pause above the water. The suite includes a full ensuite bath, while the guest bedroom also enjoys its own private bath. Two additional full baths bring the home’s total to four and add convenience across its levels. The finished walkout lower level offers a kitchenette, full bath, tiled flooring, built-in storage, and sliding glass doors opening to the covered patio, lawn, and lake. Ideal as a recreation room, secondary gathering space, or guest retreat, it supports relaxed lake days with ease. Although the setting feels peacefully removed, the property is approximately 20 minutes from Sapphire Valley Resort and downtown Cashiers, 30 minutes from Brevard, and 40 minutes from Highlands. Nearby hiking trails and waterfalls invite exploration, while dining, shopping, art, music, and events such as the Cashiers Plein Air Festival and Groovin’ on the Green enrich the experience. Whether envisioned as a private mountain escape, a full-time lakefront residence, or a property with potential for short-term rental use subject to applicable rules and regulations, this home offers direct water access, flexible living space, and exceptional scenery. Experience the setting in person and discover a retreat where the water is more than a view—it is part of everyday life.

This is a very lovely property and a Large house. Under roof this one level living home has 4070 total square footage under roof. See the (House Square Foot Breakdown) Provided. The garage and garage storeroom is 570' +/- of that, but the rest of the house is quite "live-able". Because of rules and regs of the MLS System we are not able to advertise any house with square footage that does not meet certain standards. Therefore, this large house is only registered in MLS as 2885sf. (1667 FHLA on the Floor Plan layout page). In reality, under roof, minus garage, it is actually 3500+/- square foot house. The Main Floor, where you have one level living, is totally finished and totally heated. A small part, the sunroom, has a portion of its ceiling under the 7-foot limit, so not countable. The Basement Floor is mostly heated...some not, it is partially finished...some not, and its ceilings are mostly above 7'...some not. Can be confusing, but checking the House Square Foot Breakdown and the Floor Plan Provided, it becomes clear. Otherwise, this home is approached by a virtually flat, no sharp curves, Sweetwater Lane, onto a flat driveway. The house site has a very nice flat front yard, and just a slight slope in the back yard. Mountain Laurels surround the house on all sides and are beautiful when in full spring bloom! The entire almost 3 acre property is inundated with these native flowering tall mature bushes from one end to the other. Also, many mature, indigenous trees abound.! Sweetwater Farms is only 11 minutes from Main Street Brevard and all of Brevard's restaurants, music venues, galleries, shops, groceries, hardware stores, hospital and doctor offices.! The interior of the house is well kept and very stylish. The kitchen boasts highly sought after Wormy Chestnut cabinets that are in great condition. There is a Mud Room / Laundry Room / Half Bath which has been updated just a few years ago and is just off of the large double car garage. Both the water heater and the roof are both new within a short few years back! The home has a Radon Mitigation System already in place! There is a Generac "Guardian" Generator in place with a Generator Transfer Switch and Dedicated Generator Electrical Panel. (NOTE: This Generator has NEVER BEEN USED BY THE OWNERS. It was said to be working when they bought the property but is NOT GUARANTEED to be functional today.) Downstairs in the full basement there is plenty of room to expand living areas in a variety of ways. Currently it sports a Family Room, Recreation Room, Office, Work Room / Shop Area, and a "Flex" area with some workout equipment. Lots of great space to be enjoyed as is or completely changed to new purposes by the new owners. Either way, you are going to love this house.! Come see it and make it your home.!
