LOCATION. STYLE. LAKE ACCESS. AND A WHOLE LOT OF FUN! Welcome to 119 Grand Summit Drive, where lake living meets a cool contemporary vibe—and where you might just find yourself becoming the house everyone wants to hang out at! Located in the highly coveted The Summit, this stylish 4-bedroom contemporary home is anything but your typical lake house. It’s designed for people who love to entertain, relax, play and enjoy life. In other words, bring your friends…you have plenty of parking! The fun starts outside. The spacious deck features a built-in grill, while the screened porch is the perfect spot to enjoy an evening beverage, whether the forecast calls for sunshine or one of those classic Southern “pop-up” showers. Head downstairs and the party continues with a hot tub, fire pit and plenty of seating for late-night conversations that somehow always last longer than planned. The private, level yard is a rare find and gives you plenty of room for outdoor games, a future pool, or simply enough space to tire out the kids—or the dog. And then there’s the lower level—WOW! Completely renovated in 2021, it includes a full kitchen, fireplace, living area and game room, plus a bedroom with a connecting full bath. It’s perfect for guests, extended family, a home-care situation, or—let’s just say it—a child who has discovered that moving out is apparently optional. They can have their own kitchen, living room and bathroom, so everyone wins! Upstairs, the spacious owner's suite is your private retreat, complete with a cozy reading nook overlooking the beautiful outdoors, two walk-in closets and a luxurious bath featuring dual vanities, a soaking tub and separate shower. Two additional bedrooms and an office are located on the opposite side of the home, providing plenty of privacy. A convenient laundry room leads toward the two-car garage. Need more space? You got it. There’s a third garage and workshop on the lower level, plus a massive driveway with room for cars, golf carts and probably a few friends who “just stopped by.” A whole-house Generac generator provides an added layer of convenience and peace of mind. And let's talk about the location. Publix and Ingles are just 4/10 of a mile away, while Clemson University and Downtown Seneca are only about a five-minute drive. That means groceries, football games, dinner and everything else you need are remarkably close. No epic road trip required. Best of all, you’ll have your own deeded boat slip (#5), so spontaneous lake days are officially encouraged. The Summit's amenities include pickleball and tennis courts, a clubhouse, pool and cabana, playground, walking trails, sidewalks, streetlights, kayak storage and launch, plus a gated storage area for boats, RVs and other toys. And with an active social calendar, making friends is easy. The Summit is the kind of neighborhood where you may move in knowing nobody and somehow end up with plans every weekend. Whether you're looking for a lake lifestyle, a place to entertain, a neighborhood where people actually get together, or simply a home where “What are we doing this weekend?” is a question with a very long answer, The Summit delivers. Come see 119 Grand Summit Drive and discover why this isn't just a house—it’s a place to live, play, entertain and make some seriously good memories. Lake access. Great location. Amazing amenities.
