About This Home

Attention space lovers and value seekers — this one is for you! Tucked at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac in sought-after Riverwood Plantation, this 3,996 square foot home is proof that big living does not have to come with a big price tag. With 2,757 square feet above grade and a finished basement adding another 1,239 square feet — complete with a bar and kitchenette — there is room here for everyone and everything. The primary suite on the main level makes mornings easy, while three generous bedrooms and two full baths upstairs give everyone their own space. Step out to the large deck and you have the perfect spot for cookouts, coffee, or Carolina sunsets. Low-maintenance partial brick and vinyl exterior means your weekends stay yours, and the community pool means summer is always just a short walk away. Yes — this home needs some love. But with this much space, in this community, at this price? The bones are here and the opportunity is real. Bring your vision, roll up your sleeves, and make this one yours. Equity is waiting
