About this property

Breathtaking panoramic lake views on deep water w/gentle slope to the lake.

Our Lake Hartwell custom built home is located in a gated private 3 home community with a park like setting that is truly spectacular. Upon arriving at 'Heartwell Heaven', you will notice an beautiful custom craftsman style home with lake views for miles, a gentle slope to the water and a gorgeous park like setting where kids can run and play. The flat front yard is a great place where families can play volleyball, badminton or corn hole while others can relax on the rocking chair front porch with a cold drink.

Another favorite thing about our property is that it is less than 7 minutes off I-85 which makes it so convenient. For college fans, you can get to Clemson in 30 minutes and UGA in 45 minutes. Our priority when building our home was to have an upscale home with all of the niceties, have deep water and amazing view, and be less than 2 hours from Atlanta, GA one way, and Greenville, SC the other.

Our dock is situated on deep water year round so put on your suits and jump right off. Though we are situated on deep water, we are also near a cove so the high speed boats are never an issue. We just got a brand new large boat dock with 2 slips. Our boat is on a lift in one slip, but you are welcome to use the second slip (Harborlight Marina is close by for boat rentals too). We have 2 kayaks, a Lilly pad, a large tube, ropes, some water floats, water ski's, a wakeboard and much more. Bring your sunscreen and fishing gear for a full lake experience.

As you enter the front door you will be greeted with spectacular views of Lake Hartwell from the entire main level. The home has many extra amenities for your comfort such as granite countertops, upscale appliances including a food warmer, 2 refrigerators, a full sized washer and dryer, a floor heater in the master bathroom, a beautiful wood burning stone fireplace and much more. The kitchen hosts a farm table which comfortably seats 8 people with 4 bar stools around the kitchen island. Walk from the dining area to our covered porch where you can relax on comfy patio furniture and rocking chairs while enjoying our traeger grill and a picnic table for outside entertaining.

There are two Master bedrooms with king beds and private bathrooms.
The main floor master bedroom (#1) has its own bath with a luxurious oversized shower, garden tub, double vanity, and floor heater. The upstairs master bedroom (#2) has a king bed and en suite with tub/shower combo, tile floors, and single vanity. The other three upstairs bedrooms share a Jack-n-Jill bath with a tub/shower and a large vanity.
Bedroom (#3): 2 twin beds and 1 set of bunkbeds, game and TV nook. Bedroom (#4): King bedroom suite Bedroom (#5): 2 queen beds, sitting area and floor space for an air mattress if needed. We do have a queen and twin air mattress on site if additional beds are needed.

Extra Amenities:

Large parking area
Free high-speed wifi
Board games, puzzles and playing cards
2 Kayaks, knee board, wakeboard, tube
2 refrigerators for extra food, drink and ice

Perfect for us!
Everything was great from booking to check out. The house worked perfectly for our 24 hour staff retreat. Kitchen was fully stocked for us to prepare meals. The open living, kitchen, and dinning space worked great for comfortable meeting time. Beds were comfy and views were beautiful! Owner was great to work with answering all of our questions promptly before our arrival. A great place to bring a couple of families to enjoy some laid back lake living for a few days!

Lovely home
We had a great time. My 11 year old grandson made sure we played with everything in the basement. Saturday it was the ping pong table and the floats. Sunday the floats and kayaks came out. We rented a pontoon boat for three days so the big tube was a real hit Monday thru Wednesday. We fished in the evenings. Then the badmitton net was set up and corn hole game came out. We actually held a corn hole tournament on Friday evening. The 11 year old and his partner won. The house was very confortable and had everything we needed. We grandparents stayed on the main floor. The kitchen was big enough that we could all help with meals. Lana was very prompt and helpfull with a few minor questions we had. We were surprised at how quiet the lake traffic was. We had no problem with loud fast boats buzzing by.

About the host

Hosted by Lana Wertz

Host profile image
Jeff & Lana Wertz are the owners of the property. Jeff is a custom homebuilder from Atlanta, Ga and Lana is a nurse midwife. We have 3 daughters who remind us frequently that we are never allowed to sell the lake house because they love it so much.

Our lake home is wonderful for kids. Our girls like to have bonfires, take nature walks, pick wild blackberries, play volleyball and badminton, boat, swim, wake surf, waterski, sunbath, etc. Nights at the lake are our favorite time when we cook dinner, sit on the porches and enjoy the star lit sky.

For those with older guests or small children, the walk to the water is short and gentle without woods to meander through. There is a master on the main with a king bed and on-suite bathroom.

Why they chose this property

We chose to buy this property when we saw the land come on the market in 2008. This was the best lake lot we had ever seen (still is). We spent 6 months working on the plan and built our dream lake home on the property. We knew the area well and loved the convenience to the property but also to grocery stores and restaurants. We also have a boat ramp on our property for your convenience, plus a marina with gas near our home.

What makes this property unique

We love getting to the house the first night, unpacking and going to the front or back porch and just looking at the view! We also like going to Lavonia which is 10 minutes away to get doughnuts on Saturday morning and walk through the small shops and antique stores. We also buy local produce at the farmer's market on the square.
