2019 Craftsman on .79-Acre Lot with Soaring Great Room Ceiling
What stands out first at 105 Carlton Street is the yard — a generous 0.79-acre, level parcel that opens possibilities for garden rooms, a play yard, or a future addition without losing the privacy a modern buyer craves. The house itself is a 2019 Craftsman with the kind of smart detailing you don’t often find at this price: 10-foot ceilings through much of the plan and a dramatic 12'6" ceiling in the great room that gives the main living space an airy, elevated feel.
I toured this home with an eye for finishes and flow. Wide-plank hardwood floors run through the primary living areas; Shaker-style cabinetry anchors the kitchen and pairs with durable quartz countertops. Energy-efficient windows and clean sightlines make everyday living uncomplicated. The open main level is practical for family routines and entertaining: the great room, dining area, and kitchen read together while still keeping zones distinct. Mechanical systems are modern — central AC and forced-air gas heat — and the two-car attached garage keeps weekend projects and storage accounted for.
The primary suite and two additional bedrooms share thoughtfully proportioned bathroom layouts and generous storage. With no basement and all living on one level, the home is easy to maintain and appealing for buyers seeking single-story convenience. The septic system and municipal water are noted items for inspection; as with any home on septic, verification of capacity and condition is recommended during due diligence.
Location is practical: shopping at Greenwood Mall is roughly 2.5 miles away, Self Regional Healthcare is about 3 miles, and Lander University sits about 3.5 miles from the front door — a notable upside for commuters or investors targeting student rentals. Recreation is equally close: Lake Greenwood State Park is about five miles out, offering boating and trails on weekend afternoons. Merrywood Elementary, rated 9/10, serves local families and sits within easy reach.
Overall, 105 Carlton St. pairs modern construction and maintenance-friendly systems with a rare lot size for Greenwood neighborhoods. It’s a versatile property — equally attractive as a long-term family home with room to expand outdoors or as an investment proximate to the university and local amenities. Bring your contractor or architect and consider what you could add on this level, usable parcel.

A factual market snapshot around 105 Carlton St.
Greenwood’s market currently reads as a buyer’s market with moderate inventory and longer listing times than major metros. Local metrics show roughly 3.5 months of inventory and an average days-on-market near 85 — indicators that buyers can find negotiation room, especially on homes that have been listed for several weeks. Median sale price in the area sits around $270,000, while single-family homes similar to this 2019 Craftsman have recent comp-based valuations in the $290K–$310K range; this property’s valuation midpoint is $300,000 ($203/SF), consistent with recent arm’s-length transactions.
Single-family homes with modern construction and larger lots remain desirable in Greenwood, because they combine lower near-term maintenance with flexibility for additions or outdoor amenities. Rental demand is healthy — proximity to Lander University supports an estimated monthly rent near $2,000 and a gross rental yield around 8% for investors. Given current conditions (5% 1-year appreciation and roughly 15% over five years), this is a reasonable time for buyers seeking value: financing rates and inspection contingencies will shape final offers, and the large lot adds intrinsic upside for buyers willing to invest in outdoor upgrades or an addition. Key cautions for inspectors and lenders include the onsite septic system and verifying zoning for any expansion plans.
