$1,185,000 - 1668 Old Lewisburg Hwy, Columbia

Set on 3.56 private acres bordering the 12,800-acre Yanahli Wildlife Management Area, this custom-built residence offers the rare charm of a country estate—thoughtfully designed in 1992 with inspiration drawn from local historic homes. The result is a striking neoclassical property that captures timeless Southern architecture while delivering modern construction and livability. A Class 4 impact-resistant copper roof, hand-laid and soldered, crowns the home, while wrought iron railings, a private primary balcony, and an expansive veranda accessed by multiple French doors create an elegant and inviting exterior. The grounds are equally impressive, featuring Italianate gardens, mature landscaping, curved brick and stone walls, crab orchard stone walkways, and a stunning two-tiered fountain framed by an iron-gated garden. Inside, 2,208 square feet of living space showcases exceptional craftsmanship, including custom-milled solid oak floors, extensive trim work, plantation shutters, and 10’ ceilings on the main level. The family room features a restored antique tiger-striped oak mantel from historic Columbia, while the office/media room is highlighted by a carved antique mantel and custom stained glass pocket doors. The custom kitchen blends function and artistry with solid maple cabinetry, seeded glass, a hand-built copper range hood, dual farmhouse sink, and high-end appliances including a Kucht gas range and Asko systems. French doors throughout the main living spaces create seamless indoor-outdoor flow to the veranda. The home offers three bedrooms and three full baths, including a primary suite with a private balcony, custom wardrobe system, and spa-like bath with soaking tub and granite finishes. A 1,200 sq ft climate-controlled basement with tandem garage provides additional flexibility, while features like Renewal by Andersen windows, a professional fire alarm system, and upgraded mechanicals ensure peace of mind.
