Welcome to 130 River Ridge Road — where the lifestyle you've been planning finally has an address. Nestled within the gated, amenity-rich community of Old Edwards Reserve at Lake Keowee, this 5-bedroom, 6-bath Craftsman-style home offers over 5,500 square feet of refined lakefront living — and a way of life that's hard to put a price on. Whether you're looking for the perfect second home, a well-earned retirement retreat, or simply a place where every weekend feels like a vacation, this property checks every box. Set along 120 feet of private shoreline on a quiet, swimmable cove just off the main channel of Lake Keowee, the home captures sweeping water views from multiple rooms and features a covered dock accessible via a private golf cart path. The terrain between the home and the water has character — this is a lake home, after all — but the cart path makes getting to the dock easy and enjoyable rather than a chore. New stairs lead down to the dock gangwalk, and once you're on the water, you'll understand exactly why this setting commands attention. Inside, the owner's suite is conveniently located on the main level — ideal for those who prefer single-floor living without sacrificing space. The finished walkout basement adds flexibility for guests, family, or entertaining, and the nearly 1,000 square feet of covered porch space makes outdoor living a genuine part of daily life here, not just an afterthought. Recent investments include a new roof, new gutters, and a new HVAC system — the kind of updates that are easy to overlook but impossible to regret. The home has been professionally deep cleaned and is fully vacant, move-in ready, and conveying with a Premier Membership to Old Edwards Reserve. That membership opens the door to a Jack Nicklaus Signature Golf Course, a 200-slip marina, Har-Tru tennis courts, pickleball, multiple dining venues including the Orchard House, a wellness center, spa services, miles of walking trails, and a year-round community events calendar. At Old Edwards Reserve, the amenities aren't a bonus — they're the point. At the current list price, this home simply cannot be rebuilt for what you're being asked to pay for it. Land, lake access, membership, and over 5,500 square feet of quality construction — this is one of those rare opportunities where the math actually works in the buyer's favor.
