527 Doe Run

CONTINUE TO SHOW - first right of refusal (call) Welcome to 527 Doe Run in Pickens, SC, the modern mountain cottage on 5.29 private acres. Some homes just get it right. This 2019-built mountain cottage sits at the base of the Blue Ridge Mountains on over 5 acres of privacy, combining the best of mountain living with thoughtful, modern design that actually makes sense for how people live today. The wraparound porch (Yes, It's That Good) Let's start outside, because honestly, you might spend half your time here; I know I would. The covered wraparound porch is not just a nice feature—it's practically an additional room. Morning coffee while the sun filters through the trees? Check. Evening relaxation with mountain sunset views? Absolutely. This is the kind of porch where you can set up your laptop, host dinner, watch the game, or simply exist peacefully with a good book. It's the rare outdoor space that works in every season. Inside: open, bright & beautifully finished. Walk through the front door & you'll immediately understand why open concept design works so well in a mountain setting. Wide-plank hardwood floors flow throughout the main level, complemented by contemporary paint colors & clean lines that let the natural surroundings take center stage. The wood-burning fireplace anchors the living room, creating that cozy mountain vibe without feeling overdone. The real magic happens when you open the double doors connecting the living space to the porch. Suddenly, your home extends into nature. The current owners keep these doors open whenever weather permits, flooding the space with fresh mountain air & the ambient sounds of the forest. A kitchen worth cooking in. The kitchen is genuinely impressive—spacious & functional with custom cabinetry, granite countertops & a large island that becomes the natural gathering spot. Open shelving adds character without sacrificing storage & stainless steel appliances plus a generously sized sink make this a kitchen designed for real use, not just looks. Note the ample counter space! Smart bedroom layout - the floor plan makes sense: two bedrooms at the front of the home share a full bathroom with a tub/shower combo, perfect for kids or guests. The primary suite claims the peaceful rear of the home, featuring a private bathroom with walk-in shower, a walk-in closet &—don't miss this—a stunning wall of built-ins that's equal parts functional & beautiful. Both bathrooms feature custom furniture-style vanities that elevate the everyday routine. The upstairs surprise - here's where it gets fun. A newly finished upstairs space includes a fourth bedroom, closet & a small flex area at the top of the stairs. Currently serving as a teen retreat, this space adapts to whatever you need—craft room, home office, hangout spot, or just well-conditioned storage. It's that flexibility that makes a house work for the long haul. (While this is currently being used as a 4th bedroom, it may not work for all needs) The location, Pickens sits in that sweet spot where you get genuine mountain scenery & privacy without being far from civilization. This particular property gives you 5.29 acres of your own space in a quiet, rural-style neighborhood—enough land to feel completely secluded while still being part of a community. Additional highly functional features of this home: mudroom space with a walk-in laundry room, featuring a sink. Unique garage setup that provides PLENTY of storage (two levels) & a workshop. Accessible from both the interior and& exterior. The bottom line, this isn't a fixer-upper or a compromise property. It's a 2019-built home with quality finishes, smart design & that increasingly rare combination of privacy & proximity to nature. If you've been looking for a mountain retreat that doesn't require you to sacrifice modern comfort, this is worth your time. Your own slice of Pickens County heaven! Ready to see it for yourself? Let's schedule a showing & you can experience that porch firsthand.
