Property Description

Tucked behind mature landscaping on one of Greenville’s most iconic streets, this nearly one-acre property is one of the most private and peaceful settings you’ll find inside the city limits. With over 8,000 square feet of living space, beautifully maintained interiors, a resort-style pool, and rare walkability to Augusta Road, downtown Greenville, and city parks—this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to own a true in-town retreat. Known as Crescent Grove, the home has been thoughtfully updated over time, blending classic Southern architecture with timeless materials and ageless design. Think 200-year-old milled pine cabinetry from the Green River area near Asheville, heart pine floors, custom millwork, and soft natural light throughout. Everything feels elegant, warm, and built to last. At the center of the home is a welcoming, character-filled kitchen that flows into generous living and dining spaces—designed for both quiet mornings and lively evenings. The main-level primary suite features a rare layout: dual bathrooms connected by a shared shower. Upstairs, a second primary suite provides flexibility for guests or multi-generational living, and two additional bedrooms each have their own private en-suite baths. The finished basement includes a wine cellar, billiards room, and another en-suite guest room. With a two-car attached garage and a two-car detached garage, there’s covered parking for four vehicles—a rare find in this location. The home is also equipped with an automatic whole-home generator, providing peace of mind year-round. A separate guest suite above the detached garage offers ideal space for a home gym, au pair, in-laws, visitors, or a home office. There is also extensive finished and unfinished storage throughout the home. Out back, the flat grassy lawn is perfect for badminton, volleyball, or barefoot evenings catching fireflies. The pool, hot tub, and water feature create a peaceful, private outdoor escape that feels miles away from downtown—even though it’s just minutes down the road. Homes like Crescent Grove rarely come to market—not with this level of privacy, scale, location, and enduring appeal. This is classic southern living at its most graceful. Shown by private appointment only, preapproval or Proof of Funds required to confirm. Listing agent present at all showings, no exceptions. 48 hours minimum notice required.
