Nestled near the Richland/Fairfield county line and thus in horse country, this 25+ acre mélange of primary residence, caretakers home, stable and two more apartments, all punctuated by extensive fencing and substantially bordered by a creek and a fringe of mature timber, combine to offer an incredible combination of residential, equine and commercial possibilities. Best of all, this property will warm the heart of anyone looking for the opportunity for a professional equestrian operation in a relaxed and private country setting. Considering the various buildings reveals a luxurious 2,200 square foot log home (completed in 2006) with two large bedrooms plus a loft overlooking the comfortable family room with utilities housed in the walk-out, partially finished basement; turning to the stable (constructed in 1997) reveals 13 stalls, a wash stall, large washer/dryer equipped tack room, feed room, an office with full bath and, overhead, two 1,000+ square foot apartments each with living room, dining room, kitchen, two bedrooms, a shared bath and a front porch; finally there is the seven year old, 1,100+ square foot Clayton mobile home with 3 bedrooms and two baths. Each residential unit is fully equipped with quality appliances plus central heat and air conditioning.
The working part of the 25 acres is divided into eight pastures (some with run-in sheds) and a variety of handling/training areas by three-rail wooden horse fencing/cross-fencing costing well over $100,000. The striking setting is idyllic with over 1,000 feet of frontage on a flowing creek and a comfortable swath of mature timber that accomplishes the separation of this property from its neighbors. The net effect of the various options offered is a property that can either be an extremely comfortable primary residence for the equine aficionado with adequate quarters for a manager or caretaker plus an amply sized stable that offers intriguing boarding possibilities, or the entire property can be focused toward rentals using the doublewide as a manager’s home (currently generating $700/month), leasing out the log home (currently generating $1,100/ month), boarding up to 13 horses at $350-450/month each and also renting the two apartments (potentially to boarder’s owners or trainers) for about $800/month each. Most of the living units are currently under leases cancelable with 30 days notice, providing enough options that the property could function as a second home with living space nearly always available for the property owner and family, or the entire complex could provide an equine-oriented family compound.
One final option presents itself: the seller also has for sale a well seasoned and consistently profitable wood product manufacturing business located adjacent to, but differentiated from, this property. A buyer looking for an income producing operation that also provides a distinct equine flavor could acquire both properties as a package.
It is generally accepted that the keys to great real estate are location, location and location. This property is secluded and rural in character and yet only fifteen minutes or so to I-77, the gateway to Columbia and Charleston, South Carolina and Charlotte, North Carolina. In addition, Lake Monticello to the West, Lake Wateree to the East and Lake Murray to the Southwest provide a plethora of water-based activities. There is truly a cornucopia of possibilities presented by this offering.
