508 Mountain Summit Road, Travelers Rest
$1,150,000
3 Beds ⋅ 4.5 Baths ⋅ 1605603 MLS
Positioned approximately halfway up Mountain Summit Road in The Cliffs Valley, this custom luxury home captures long-range mountain views extending approximately 20 miles from the rear of the property and from windows throughout the home—without the drive to the top of the summit. Designed by acclaimed residential architect Don Gardner and built by his team in 2001, the home was thoughtfully positioned to take full advantage of its mountain setting, natural light and expansive views. From the moment you enter, the architecture directs your attention toward the view. The great room is the centerpiece of the home, with a dramatic vaulted ceiling accented by substantial wood-clad beams, a floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace, custom built-ins, hardwood floors and an impressive wall of Pella windows framing the Blue Ridge landscape beyond. Warm wood finishes, stone and extensive glass create the comfortable mountain character you expect in The Cliffs while maintaining an open, spacious feel. One of the home's most impressive qualities is how consistently the view follows you from room to room. The great room, kitchen, breakfast area and other living spaces across the rear of the home take advantage of the elevation and long-range scenery. The kitchen offers extensive custom cabinetry, quartz countertops, a large center island, built-in appliances and generous work and storage space. Arched openings and detailed wood trim connect the kitchen with the adjoining living areas while still giving each room its own definition. The main level is designed for comfortable everyday living. In addition to the primary suite, a 17' x 13' office connects directly to the primary bath and provides valuable flexibility. It can remain a substantial private office or potentially serve as a second bedroom on the main level when needed. The walkout lower level adds an entirely different dimension to the home and is particularly well suited for entertaining family and overnight guests. The centerpiece is an expansive 39' x 18' recreation room with a kitchenette and see-through fireplace, along with large windows that continue to capture the mountain setting. There is plenty of room for billiards, television, conversation and casual entertaining without compromising the main-level living areas. Beyond the finished living space are additional areas that are already heated and cooled but intentionally left unfinished, providing unusually useful space for a workshop, home fitness area, hobby room or substantial dry storage. A future owner has the flexibility to use these areas as they are or adapt them to changing needs. Outdoor living continues the connection between the home and its surroundings, with mature hardwoods providing privacy while the elevation opens the rear of the property to miles of mountain scenery. Rather than having just one designated "view room," the home was designed so the setting becomes part of the experience throughout the house. Important updates include new HVAC systems installed in 2026, while the Pella windows throughout the home are particularly well suited to a property where natural light and long-range views are such an important part of the architecture. Located in The Cliffs Valley in Travelers Rest, the property combines a private mountain setting with convenient access to Greenville. The community features the Ben Wright-designed golf course, clubhouse, Wellness Center, swimming, tennis and pickleball, along with hiking, cycling and a wide range of member activities. A Cliffs Membership with access to all 7 Cliffs Clubs is available as a separate purchase.

105 Forestville Road, Travelers Rest
$555,888
3 Beds ⋅ 2 Baths ⋅ 1604815 MLS
Close to everything Travelers Rest has to offer. Tucked away from almost everything else. Surrounded by mature woods and peaceful natural views, 105 Forestville Dr offers the privacy of a retreat with the convenience of being less than 10 minutes from Downtown Travelers Rest. For buyers searching for a home where life feels a little quieter without sacrificing restaurants, trails, coffee shops, high-speed internet, and everyday conveniences, this is the balance that's increasingly difficult to find. Inside, the home was designed around simple, comfortable living. The open kitchen and living area creates a natural gathering place where dinner, homework, conversation, and evenings at home can all happen together. Large bedroom windows frame the surrounding landscape, filling the home with natural light and keeping nature constantly in view. But some of the best living happens outside. The screened porch feels like an extension of the home—pour your morning coffee, settle in among the trees, and don't be surprised when the local deer wander by to join you. It's equally suited for quiet mornings, watching the game, entertaining friends, or unwinding at the end of the day. Out front, another porch provides plenty of room for grilling and gathering, while recent improvements include new screening, wood trim and stain on the rear porch along with fresh landscaping and a new paver walkway in the lower yard. Downstairs, the walk-out basement adds an entirely different level of flexibility. There's abundant room for a workshop, home gym, hobby space, recreation area, storage, or a combination of them all. Even better, a large structural header is already concealed behind the existing drywall, giving a future owner the opportunity to explore installing a full-size garage door, French doors, or another larger exterior opening without starting the project from scratch. For remote workers, the combination becomes especially compelling. AT&T Fiber internet provides the connectivity today's work-from-home lifestyle demands, while the wooded setting provides the peace, privacy, and natural views that are considerably harder to find. The property itself is what makes this home especially difficult to replicate. Its wooded surroundings provide privacy and beautiful scenery, while the woods and creek area invite exploration, future trails, and more time outdoors. A newly paved upper section of the driveway adds another recent improvement to the property. And then there's the location. Downtown Travelers Rest is less than 10 minutes away, putting restaurants, coffee shops, the Travelers Rest Farmers Market, and Trailblazer Park within easy reach. The Swamp Rabbit Trail and Furman University are nearby for walking, running, cycling, and recreation, while Greenville remains convenient for work, entertainment, and everything else the Upstate has to offer. Whether you're raising a family, working remotely, looking for a peaceful place to land as an empty nester, or simply want more nature in your everyday life, 105 Forestville offers something increasingly valuable: Privacy without isolation. Nature without sacrificing convenience. And enough flexibility to make the home your own.

Architect-designed timber frame mountain chalet on 4.64 private wooded acres in the foothills just north of Travelers Rest, bordered by streams and the vineyard side of Hotel Domestique. Enter past the stone columns and follow the paved drive to a home built for the setting: massive pine timber beams soar to 25-foot vaulted ceilings over the great room and kitchen, Tennessee field stone wraps the foyer and the wood-burning fireplace, stained glass windows glow at every level, and walls of glass open to a large multi-level deck with mountain views. Heart pine hardwoods run through the main living areas. The kitchen features glazed cabinetry with glass uppers, stainless appliances, gas range, tile backsplash and an open flow to the dining room and great room. The main-level primary suite was created in 2020 by enclosing the original deck, adding roughly 720 square feet: a sunroom/den with skylights, a dressing area, a fitted walk-in closet with radiant floor heat, a laundry closet with front-load washer and dryer, and a spa bath with radiant heated floors, dual farmhouse sinks on granite, a doorless walk-in shower with bench, three spray heads, hand jet and overhead waterfall, plus Toto bidet commode and urinal.

Stone-terraced landscaping, rock outcroppings and mature hardwoods surround the home, and the drone views say it all: rolling Blue Ridge foothills in every direction. All this just minutes from downtown Travelers Rest, the Swamp Rabbit Trail, Furman University, Cherokee Foothills Scenic Highway 11, Jones Gap and Caesars Head State Parks, and about 30 minutes to downtown Greenville. Floor plans and 3D tour available.

Wood beams and vaulted ceilings set the tone the moment the door opens, and then the lake takes over. This 2014 Dillard-Jones custom residence sits on 1.29 private acres above its own quiet water in The Cliffs Valley, close enough to the wellness center and clubhouse to walk, far enough down a wooded private drive that the mornings belong to you. Twelve years on, the house still reads new. Dillard-Jones is among the most respected custom builders in the Upstate, and the craftsmanship shows in all of the fine details. Stone columns and timber accents anchor the living room. Oak hardwoods run the main level. Ceilings hold at ten feet upstairs and down, and reach twelve in the formal dining and music room with its built-ins. Custom hardwood cabinetry in the kitchen. Leathered granite in the laundry and again in the lower-level kitchenette. The living room opens through French doors onto a deck above the water, where Phantom retractable screens let the space breathe while keeping the evening at bay. A gas-log fireplace anchors one wall. Whole-house audio is integrated throughout, along with a central vacuum system. The kitchen was built for people who cook and for the people who keep them company. A Wolf gas range with four burners and a griddle sits in the island, which seats three, and a bar opens directly into the living room. Sub-Zero refrigeration, a Thermador wall oven and microwave convection oven, a Bosch dishwasher, an undermount farm sink, and a walk-in pantry handle the work. Meals happen in a dining area under a wood-inlay dome ceiling inside a wall of windows facing the lake. The screened porch is the room this family will tell you about first. Flagstone floors, a vaulted wood ceiling, gas logs, built-in speakers, and panels that slide down when the temperature drops, which quietly turns three seasons into four. It opens to a Trex deck for grilling, and it looks over the water the entire time. The primary suite takes the lake head-on through a wall of windows beneath a tray ceiling. Dual closets are fitted with built-ins. The bath carries dual vanities and a walk-in shower with body jets, and the clawfoot tub sits where the view is best. The lower level lives like its own house. A den with a stone gas-log fireplace and coffered ceiling opens through French doors to the terrace. A guest suite has its own bath and its own private lakefront terrace. His and her offices, both with terrace access and lake views, mean two people work from home without negotiating for the good room; one is fitted with a closet and functions comfortably as a fourth bedroom or flex space. A third bedroom sits beside a full bath with a walk-in closet, and a kitchenette with sink, refrigerator, and microwave means guests never have to come upstairs for coffee. Outside, a flagstone terrace with a gas firepit sits above a natural park-like landscape, with stone steps down to the water's edge. Walking paths run through the wooded grounds, a seven-zone irrigation system keeps the landscaping, and a garden path carries you down to private shoreline access. Paddleboards go in from here. Grandchildren fish from here. The lake is shared by the handful of residences that sit on it. A Cliffs Membership is available for purchase at closing. Membership at one club gives you access to all seven world class clubs in the area. Downtown Greenville is roughly thirty-five minutes, Travelers Rest and the Swamp Rabbit Trail sit just beyond the gate, and Hendersonville, the Flat Rock Playhouse, and Fresh Market are an easy run in the other direction.
