About This Home
Perched atop 40 acres of pristine South Carolina countryside, The Castle on the Hill is a breathtaking architectural masterpiece inspired by a historic Italian castle. Every inch of this one-of-a-kind estate has been thoughtfully crafted to deliver luxury, grandeur, and timeless beauty. This majestic stone residence spans approximately 8,000 square feet and greets you with an unforgettable presence—stately stone columns, a slate tile roof, and double mahogany doors set the tone for what lies within. Upon entry, you're welcomed by a soaring 28-foot-tall foyer crowned with an Italianate dome and anchored by a stunning limestone staircase. The entire home is a study in custom craftsmanship, from the hand-selected Utah stone exterior to the reclaimed North Carolina barnwood flooring that flows throughout. The Grand Room features a floor-to-ceiling limestone fireplace—also 28 feet in height—one of five fireplaces that grace the home, creating a warm and regal ambiance throughout. With five bedrooms and five luxurious bathrooms (three en-suites), this residence is designed for both family living and lavish entertaining. There's a spacious two car detached garage with direct access to the house as well as additional space within the barn for storing five or more additional vehicles is desired. The chef’s kitchen is nothing short of extraordinary, outfitted with a natural gas Viking cooktop, Sub-Zero refrigerator, wine chiller, refrigerated drawers, dishwasher drawers, and rich custom wood cabinetry. Dual kitchen islands feature striking marble countertops, while the surrounding cabinetry is finished in durable, leathered granite. Entertainment and comfort abound in the home’s custom theatre room, complete with coffered ceilings and built-in wood cabinetry. Spa-inspired bathrooms feature marble and hand-laid tile, delivering the utmost in relaxation and style. Nearly every room is designed to frame sweeping, panoramic views of the Blue Ridge Mountains—spanning South Carolina, North Carolina, and Georgia. Outside, the grounds offer even more to explore: a stocked pond, acres of pastureland, forest trails, and a serene creek. A 5,000-square-foot barn with caretaker’s quarters completes this remarkable estate. The Castle on the Hill is not merely a home—it’s a legacy property, where Old World inspiration meets modern luxury in a setting that is nothing short of spectacular.
