Stunning Plantation-Style Home on 40 Acres There's plenty of room for the cattle and horses to roam on this gorgeous 40-acre property in St. Stephen, a short drive from Summerville in the renowned Santee National Forest area. There are 4 large ponds loaded with bream and bass for fishing on those lazy summer days, lots of producing pecan trees, a rustic chicken coup with laying hens and cleared farm land perfect for hogs or planting. The property is protected in the back and side by wetlands and a wooded buffer with cypress trees and pines. Enjoy an oyster roast at the huge gazebo overlooking one of the ponds, or a summer cookout by the brick and wrought iron fenced in ground pool with His & Hers bath house. Park your golf carts or store equipment in the back of the bath house. Practice your strokes on your very own golf greens. Did we mention that this gorgeous property comes with a 3400+ square foot brick home reminiscent of an old southern plantation? Enter the property through the automatic wrought iron gate with its own remote control. The house looks grand, with its 5 massive columns in the front. As you enter the house, you will step into the foyer with soaring ceiling, slate flooring, built in book shelves and a beautiful chandelier. The formal dining room is to the left and is separated from the foyer by columns. The formal living room or study is to the right. There is dental crown molding inside the home, as well as outside. The formal dining room leads into the spacious kitchen, with plenty of counter space and cabinets, and a center island, great for entertaining. There is a sunny breakfast nook, spacious enough for a large table. Step down from the kitchen into the cozy, sunken den with a wood burning fireplace that has a buck stove insert. You can actually slow cook on this and it keeps the downstairs nice and warm in the winter. Adjacent to the family room is the huge master bedroom.
