Residential Land for Sale in Travelers Rest, South Carolina

Located at 31 Drake Road in Travelers Rest, this 7.77-acre property offers a rare combination of privacy, existing infrastructure and convenience just 10 minutes from downtown Travelers Rest and 30 minutes from downtown Greenville. The property is divided by Drake Road, with approximately 5.77 acres on the uphill side and 2 acres on the downhill side. A gravel driveway leads up the larger portion to an existing homesite with a 1986 Fleetwood single-wide mobile home. The 2-bedroom, 1.5-bath home has power, water and septic already in place and is currently leased for $850/month under a written annual lease. The lease can be terminated with proper notice or could most likely be renewed if a buyer would like to continue the rental income. The mobile home was originally intended as temporary housing while the owner built a primary residence farther up the hill. Because of this, the septic system was upsized to accommodate a future 3-bedroom, 2-bath home. Farther up the ridge is the property's premier homesite, tucked among mature hardwoods consisting primarily of white oak, red oak, hickory and others. The property sits on a slope, making this homesite particularly well suited for a basement-style home with large windows facing the mountains. With selective clearing, there is potential to open up views toward the Blue Ridge Mountains. Across Drake Road are approximately 2 additional acres of former pasture that have naturally grown into young hardwoods. This portion is bordered by a year-round creek branching off the North Saluda River. Located on a quiet, dead-end road with no through traffic, the property offers a secluded setting while remaining convenient to Travelers Rest, Greenville and all the amenities those have to offer. Whether you're looking for a private mountain homesite, weekend retreat or acreage with existing rental income, this tract offers plenty of possibilities. Utilities include Greenville Water, Blue Ridge Electric and an existing septic system. A gravel driveway serving the neighboring property crosses the front portion of the property, with an easement in place (documents available upon request). See supporting documents for a copy of the plat, aerial map, and topography map. No restrictions! Offered at $295,000
