Johnson Pond Road and Donald Davis Rd , Bishopville, SC 29010(Lee County)

Take a custom designed and carefully built cypress-sided contemporary home with three full floors and a widows walk, surround it with about 334 acres of plantation pines and lovely meadows in rural Lee County, South Carolina, then add over 700 feet of setback from the paved road: the result is a private, peaceful and secluded piece of heaven on earth. The 2,870 square foot main level is fronted by a nearly full length open porch (reached by a variety of French and single doors from the great room, dining room and master bedroom) plus a Florida room that stretches for much of the full length of the rear of the building and is reached by two different doors from the inside and three from the outside (with steps up to decks from the ground level); the remainder of the main floor is made up of a mud/utility room, a gourmet kitchen (with custom natural wood cabinetry, tile floors and countertops, a central island and an eat-in area), a formal dining room, a magnificent great room (featuring vaulted ceilings, fieldstone fireplace, second floor balcony overlook and two-story windows), a back hall that provides access to the Florida room, a half bath, the stairways to the second floor and to the lowest level and to the master bedroom (with its vaulted ceilings, another fieldstone fireplace, French doors to the front porch, a private sundeck, elegant master bath, walk-in his and hers closets and an office or sitting room with direct access to the Florida room). The 850 square foot second floor consists of two very comfortably-sized guest rooms and their shared bath, the central hall with balcony overlooking the great room, a large family or media room and the piece de resistance: the stairway to the widows walk and cocktail deck on the roof of the home. The entire home is served by a surround-sound system, security system and is equipped with thermal-pane windows and doors. The 2,200 square foot lowest level is built on a slab (with the walk-out front portion above ground while the rear and sides are partially in-ground) and is not included in the square footage of the home. This level is presently used mainly for storage but has rough-ins for two full baths, has two roughed-in fireplaces that are plumbed for gas logs and has block walls that are firred - out for eventual finishing. This floor could quite easily be tied into the central heating and cooling system and turned into two bedrooms (each with a private bath and a private exterior door) plus a central living room with two grade-level exterior French doors and a fireplace: perfect for an apartment or in-law suite. The exterior of the lowest level has field stone facing while all of the upper floors are cypress-sided for low maintenance. The grounds contain, in addition to extensive timber (the timber management agreement that is in place with South Carolina yields benefits plus some restrictions), a 30X40 foot pole barn with a secured central work shop and drive-in storage for the farm tractor and attachments, the estate style lawn mower and plenty of storage room for other maintenance and recreational equipment, a three bay detached garage with a secured work shop or storage area and an irrigation system. This magnificent property is located just minutes from Bishopville (for routine shopping), 20 minutes from Camden and 10 minutes from I-20 thus providing easy access to Florence, Myrtle Beach, Charleston, Camden and Charlotte, North Carolina. Lake Wateree and the Wateree River are near Camden and offer a wide spectrum of water recreation opportunities. Much of the acreage is in planted pines (and, as previously noted, is in the South Carolina CRP program), there is a large shared pond and creek plus additional meadows. This property truly must be seen to be appreciated.
