What sets 212 SE Shore Drive apart is its combination of thoughtful renovation and immediate access to Lake Toxaway's shoreline. Thoughtfully updated while honoring the home's original character, this contemporary residence offers 2,660 square feet across 2.5 stories, positioned on a gently sloping 1.16-acre parcel just a short walk from the lake.
Inside, the renovation focuses on performance and comfort: ductless heating and cooling, high-efficiency systems, and careful finishes that contribute to the home's excellent condition. The main living areas feel purposeful—rooms sized for relaxed gatherings, a living room with a fireplace for cooler evenings, and spaces that extend toward the outdoors. The property includes three bedrooms and four bathrooms, plus a partially finished lower level that provides flexible space for media, hobbies, or an office.
Well-suited for year-round use or a mountain retreat, the home includes a dedicated sauna and modern mechanicals that lower operating costs. Utilities are set up for mountain living—well water, septic, propane, and electric service through Duke Energy—and a two-car detached garage adds valuable storage and workshop potential. The shingle roof and wood-frame construction reflect durable, straightforward choices appropriate to the setting.
Outdoors, the 1.16-acre lot offers privacy, room for gardens or future improvements, and direct proximity to the water and community amenities. Lake Toxaway Country Club is a short drive away for golf and dining, while Gorges State Park and its network of trails and waterfalls are within easy reach. For those who want a connection to a vibrant small-town arts scene, Brevard is about a 15-mile drive.
This property is a strong option for buyers seeking a move-in ready lakeside home with contemporary systems and turnkey comforts. With a recent series of renovations, efficient mechanicals, and the rare combination of acreage plus lake access in Lake Toxaway Estates, 212 SE Shore Drive represents both lifestyle and long-term value in one of Transylvania County’s most desirable settings.
