Nestled on just over an acre in a quiet, private setting near the Aiken Golf Club, this beautifully updated 4-bedroom, 3-bath brick home offers the perfect blend of convenience, character, and functionality. Enjoy the benefits of downtown living with the ability to travel by golf cart to dining, shopping, entertainment, and recreational amenities. Originally built in 1962, this well-constructed home has been thoughtfully renovated, including updated wiring and the addition of a private owner's suite. Gleaming hardwood floors welcome you into the spacious foyer, where the main living areas are located to the right and the guest wing extends down the hall to the left. The inviting living room features a wood-burning fireplace and flows seamlessly into the formal dining room, creating an ideal setting for entertaining. At the heart of the home is the beautifully remodeled kitchen, perfectly positioned between the dining room and a cozy keeping room with a second fireplace. This warm gathering space is ideal for morning coffee, casual conversations, or relaxing with guests while meals are being prepared. Designed with both beauty and function in mind, the kitchen showcases quartz countertops, a tile backsplash, stainless steel appliances, gas cooking, a coffee bar, a large center island with storage, and an oversized farmhouse sink perfectly positioned beneath a window overlooking the backyard. The private owner's suite addition is tucked away just off the kitchen and dining area, creating a peaceful retreat. The spacious bedroom is complemented by an oversized bath featuring dual vanities, a storage tower, private water closet, and a large tiled walk-in shower with three recessed niches for organized storage. A generous walk-in closet with built-in shelving completes the suite. Conveniently located between the owner's suite and kitchen, the laundry room offers additional storage and direct access to the rear patio. On the opposite side of the home, three additional bedrooms and two full baths provide excellent accommodations for family and guests. The hall bath serves both as a guest powder room and as a bath for two bedrooms, while the rear bedroom enjoys the privacy of an en-suite bath and features two closets. Car enthusiasts, hobbyists, and those needing extra storage will appreciate the oversized detached garage. With 30 feet of depth, it easily accommodates a full-size pickup truck and includes a climate-controlled third bay complete with a utility sink--ideal for a workshop, hobby room, or conditioned storage space. Outdoor living is equally impressive, featuring a large rear patio perfect for grilling, entertaining, or simply enjoying the peaceful surroundings. A separate storage building provides additional space for tools and equipment. Parking is abundant and thoughtfully designed. A driveway on the left side of the home leads to the detached garage and expansive parking pad. A circular front drive accommodates multiple vehicles, while a second driveway on the right side, tucked beneath a canopy of mature trees, offers the perfect location for RV, boat, or trailer parking. With its exceptional location, flexible floor plan, extensive updates, abundant parking, and private outdoor setting, this move-in-ready home offers a rare opportunity to enjoy downtown Aiken living at its finest.
