Some homes are built to impress. Others are built to be lived in. This one was built to become part of a family's story. Tucked away at the end of a quiet country road just minutes from Interstate 85, 200 Sleepy Hollow Rd is a one-of-a-kind custom cedar log home offering the peace and privacy of mountain living without sacrificing convenience. Surrounded by nature yet only minutes from Greenville, Powdersville, and everyday essentials, this is the kind of property that rarely comes to market. Originally built by the owner's late husband as his dream retirement home, every detail reflects thoughtful craftsmanship and intentional design. Based on Southland plans but extensively customized during construction, the home features a full-length covered porch, a beautiful skylight, oversized windows that flood the interior with natural light, custom solid wood kitchen cabinetry, and a recently installed custom cherry walk-in closet system in the primary suite. Even more remarkable, the home's interior was designed without load-bearing walls, offering incredible flexibility for future reconfiguration if desired. Constructed with solid cedar logs, the home delivers both timeless character and outstanding natural insulation. Inside, you'll find warm wood finishes, inviting gathering spaces, and a floor plan that feels equally suited for raising a family, welcoming guests, working remotely, or simply slowing down and enjoying a quieter pace of life. This isn't a cabin built for weekends—it's a home built for everyday living. Step outside and you'll quickly understand why the current owners have loved this property for so many years. The expanded patio and custom fire pit have hosted countless family gatherings, cookouts, and evenings under the stars. Wildflowers and clover now bloom throughout the property, mature blueberry bushes provide summer snacks just steps from the patio, and wildlife including deer, turkey, and other native species regularly wander through the surrounding woods. With virtually no through traffic, the setting feels remarkably secluded while remaining only about five minutes from the interstate. Modern updates make this home just as practical as it is beautiful. Significant improvements include a 2022 solar panel system paired with two Tesla backup batteries, providing exceptional energy efficiency and backup power. During Hurricane Helene, neighboring homes were without electricity for more than a week while this home continued powering lights, refrigeration, and everyday essentials. Additional updates include a new HVAC system, water heater, renovated guest bathroom, exterior staining, crawlspace moisture barrier and dehumidifier, insulated garage door, updated lighting, and numerous other improvements that allow the next owner to move in with confidence. The detached 24x24 garage, oversized workshop shed, and open land create endless possibilities for hobby farming, gardening, recreational equipment, home projects, or simply enjoying room to spread out. With no HOA, Spectrum internet for remote work, and space for chickens, goats, gardens, or future expansion, this property offers a level of freedom that's becoming increasingly difficult to find. Despite its peaceful setting, the location keeps you close to everything that makes Upstate living so desirable. Downtown Greenville and Easley are approximately 20 minutes away, Powdersville is just 10 minutes, Interstate 85 is approximately five minutes from your driveway, and outdoor destinations like Conestee Nature Preserve, Piedmont Riverfront Park, and Dolly Cooper Park are all nearby.
