Featured Custom Home Project

Saluda River Craftsman

Nestled in the premier neighborhood of Saluda River Club, this home has it all with Saluda River access, walking trails, community swimming pools, a club house, and it’s zoned for Lexington 1 School District. It’s close to downtown Columbia but far enough away to accomodate a resort lifestyle.

This two-story Modern Craftsman home has a welcoming front porch with stacked stone veneer partial columns and details like wide window trim and lanterns on the porch and above each garage door. The extra gable over the porch, the dormer vents in the upper roof, and the carriage garage doors add charm and whimsy to the exterior of this home.

The back of the home has a spacious screened-in porch and fenced-in yard perfect for a dog or for young children to keep them safe.

With just a small foyer, the entryway opens to living space with a formal dining room with custom molding on one side and a navy blue study with glass french doors on the other side.

Dramatic french doors open to reveal a navy blue home office, conveniently located near the front entryway in case clients or coworkers need to meet.

The living space has built-in shaker cabinets with floating shelves on each side of the gas fireplace. Above the shelves, unique transom windows bring in additional light while maintaining privacy on the side of the home. Black granite surrounds the fireplace, creating a nice contrast with the white mantle and supporting columns. And rustic, wide-planked hardwood floors add plenty of charm and character to the space.

The kitchen is all-white except for the large eat-in kitchen island with a bluish-gray hue. And the shaker cabinets, white subway tile, and brushed nickel hardware and faucet match beautifully with the stainless steel appliances. Industrial-style dual pendant lights add a warm glow for task lighting and under-cabinet lighting creates a bright area for food prep.

An eat-in breakfast area sits beside the kitchen complete with a wall of windows, drenching the area in natural light.

Between the kitchen and the formal dining room, a smart-looking butler’s pantry with gray shaker cabinets provides extra storage space for fine china, silverware, crystal, table linens, and additional serving space for dinner guests.

Near the garage entrance, mudroom provides storage for coats, shoes, and other necessities, as well as plenty of seating with the built-in bench.

The master bathroom has a large dual vanity with plenty of storage and counter space for two. And the separate drop-in tub surround extends a bit farther than usual to provide a handy built-in shower bench for the oversized glassed-in shower with three showerheads.

The master closet has built-in shelves, hanging space, and a beautiful built-in dresser for plenty of storage space in the closet. This gives the master bedroom a lot more floor space and flexibility for a sitting area if desired.

This home also boasts two master suites so that the family can accommodate extended family or additional guests easily at a moment’s notice.
