About This Home

Take a look at this Beautiful DIRECT LAKEFRONT Lake Keowee Cottage! This cottage is move-in-ready, has FULL-TIME capacity, comes with the majority of the furniture, golf cart, new HVAC, large waterfront yard space, a finished loft, hardwood floors and more! A new stainless refrigerator, oven and built-in microwave have all just been installed! If you are looking for a low maintenance retreat, full time residence or a lakefront getaway, this is it! Cottage 74 is a must see. A direct waterfront cottage, at this price, with over 1,100 square feet, a finished loft, full-time capacity and no lakeview obstructions is very rare. The cottage is only steps away from the lakefront walking path that goes around the neighborhood peninsula. This established community offers many amenities. They include a fabulous lakefront lodge and swimming pool, marina, beach, renovated fitness center, walking trails and more. There is no HOA. Cottage owners own their cottages and lease the land. This is how Backwater Landing has the most luxurious and affordable Lake Keowee living on Lake Keowee. There is a monthly regime that includes landscaping maintenance, private gated community, gates up keeping, sewer, trash service, pool, clubhouse, walking trails, fitness center, lighting and more. This is a private gated community. The gate is monitored with no public access. Entry requires agent representation. No rentals allowed less than a 12-month term. A modified tax structure adds to the savings of this remarkable Lake Keowee cottage. Please ask about the land lease, boat slip rentals, and further details as the developer anticipates thirty new boat slips very soon! Schedule your private tour today.
