#2 Highest Residential Sale in the Entire Upstate.

There are homes with views, and then there are homes that become the view.

We’re proud to announce the sale of 125 Scenic Crest Way in The Cliffs at Keowee Springs, where Damian Hall Group represented the buyer in a landmark transaction. The closing price of $6.3M has set a new record for The Cliffs’ Mountain and Lake regions in South Carolina, and stands as the second-highest residential sale in the Upstate to date.

And honestly, it’s no surprise. This estate lives in its own league.

Known affectionately as “The Museum on the Mountain,” this nearly six-acre sanctuary pairs modern mountain luxury with an artistic soul. Perched at the very highest point in the community, the property delivers some of the most commanding panoramas of Lake Keowee and the Blue Ridge Mountains you’ll find anywhere in the Carolinas. Long-range views that run from Table Rock to Bad Creek. Sunsets that feel almost scripted. A setting that simply can’t be replicated.

Inside, more than 10,000 square feet unfold across three levels, tied together by architectural precision from Mitch Lehde and interiors by Inspiro 8 Studio. Every inch is thoughtfully curated and deeply personal. The seller’s extensive art collection anchors the home’s identity, most notably the piece that inspired the residence itself: “Casa Blanca,” an emotional, two-part work by Argentine artist Raúl Díaz.

A humanoid sculpture gazing toward a fragmented white house—the suggestion of memory, longing, and origin—became the conceptual heartbeat of the entire design. The owners were so moved by it that they built the house around it. You don’t see that every day.

Highlights inside include 22-foot floor-to-ceiling hurricane-rated windows framing the kind of views people usually have to hike for. Black walnut floors. Paris Ceramics limestone. A sculptural wet bar. A 600-bottle glass-encased wine room. Spa-level suites for every guest. A terrace level built for indulgence. A third-floor office that might just have the best views in South Carolina.

The kitchen is a chef’s fantasy rendered in Iceberg and Prada quartzite with top-tier appliances (Wolf, Miele, Fisher & Paykel, Gaggenau, Sub-Zero). Outdoors, the property continues its flex: fire pit, half-court basketball, 3,000 square feet of covered living, and room to breathe.

The result is a property that’s not only architecturally significant but emotionally magnetic—a true statement home that captures the essence of mountain-lake living at its peak.

For privacy reasons, Damian won’t comment on the buyers, but we can say this: they now own a piece of modern Southern design history.

Keowee continues to rise as one of the Southeast’s most coveted luxury markets, and 125 Scenic Crest Way stands as a benchmark for what’s possible when world-class architecture meets one-of-a-kind land.

The call to “live legendary” has never been louder.
