1071 Ricketson Road

Ready-to-build homesite! This property already has the essentials in place—septic, power, and a well—saving you time and money. Bring your plans and start building your dream home right away. Imagine this… the first rays of sunrise spilling golden light across nearly nine acres of private waterfront paradise. The stillness of the morning is broken only by the call of waterfowl gliding along the glassy surface of Lake Secession, a hidden gem stretching seven miles long, with no horsepower restrictions and the rare privilege of owning right to the waterline. At 1071 Ricketson Rd in Iva, SC, you’re not just buying property—you’re claiming a lifestyle. With 1,100 feet of water frontage, two secluded coves, and the freedom of no HOA, this is a once-in-a-lifetime chance to own an unspoiled slice of lakefront heaven. Picture parking your RV or Park Model cabin today—the well, underground power, and a 4-bedroom septic system are already in place—so you can start making memories immediately. Set up a tiny home by the first cove for an instant weekend getaway or short-term rental, then design and build your dream home on the 2.5-acre stretch between the coves. You’ll even have another acre on the far side for total privacy—a rare luxury. Spend lazy afternoons fishing for largemouth bass, crappie, or catfish. Watch deer slip quietly through the trees, or catch sight of a fox on an early morning walk. This quieter section of the lake means less boat traffic, so you can kayak, paddleboard, or simply float in peace while the sun dips into a fire-lit horizon. When you do need to head into town, you’re just 30 minutes to Anderson for all your favorite grocery stores, restaurants, and shopping, just over an hour to downtown Greenville’s dining scene, the Reedy River, and Costco—and only five minutes to a Dollar Store and a charming local market featuring fresh pizza, made-to-order sandwiches, and produce. Public boat access is just across the bridge, but you’ll have no need for it—your shoreline is all yours. Whether you dream of a private retreat, an income-producing vacation rental, or a private lakefront lot, this property delivers freedom, beauty, and unmatched potential. Opportunities like this don’t come along often… once you see the sunsets here, you’ll never want to leave.
