LOCATION, LOCATION, LOCATION! Here is an opportunity that should not last long! Live life large a stone's throw from Aiken's historic Hitchcock Woods. With equestrian-friendly property scarce, a property such as this, with such proximity to the foundation-owned Woods, is a true hidden paradise. The private, 1959-built, lovingly curated 4 BD 2.5 BTH one-level home on a 1.56-acre lot exemplifies what a privilege it is to live among Aiken's picturesque, native greenery and towering trophy trees. This special property is masterfully integrated into the surrounding environment on a tucked-away, almost hidden cul-de-sac, steps from Aiken's Hopeland Gardens, and a short distance to all the best that Aiken's downtown has to offer. The choices are many: The Aiken Golf Club, Palmetto Golf Club, The Green Boundary Club, boutique shopping on Laurens Street, fine and casual dining, The Willcox Hotel, Odell Weeks Activity Center, The Fresh Market ... And of course the renowned Hitchcock Woods. The Hitchcock Woods Foundation is solely responsible for the preservation and management of the Hitchcock Woods, the largest privately-owned urban forest in the country. The 2, 100 acres and 70 miles of sandy trails have been a haven for pedestrian and equestrian users since the early 1800s. The thoughtfully curated, landscaped lot showcases dozens of classic camellias, azaleas, boxwoods, and many other specimen trees. There is also a lovely, delicate shade garden tucked away between the pool and raised wooden deck that skirts the rear portion of the residence. The large in-ground swimming pool with new liner is privately sited behind a new 2025 wooden privacy fence that runs along the property line. The family-friendly outdoor space welcomes all. The spacious, gently curved, wooden deck reminiscent of an old Aiken estate is a wonderful place to sit or dine while enjoying the peaceful, oasis-like backyard. The interior of the residence resonates with eclectic charm. The owners collected a variety of storied antique items over the years and incorporated them into their design, lending great character and charm: an early 1900s Savannah bar; a cast iron pot rack from a butcher shop in Edgefield, SC; and a crystal chandelier from Chicago. This much cared-for and loved home is ready for its next steward. Fall in love with Cedar Lane Cottage. Use your imagination and customize it to your needs. You will not be disappointed!
