431 Dupree Place

Aiken, SC 29801

On the cul de sac of Dupree Place in the most beautiful setting one can imagine sits ''Cedar Lane''. A cottage style home with four bedrooms, 2 and 1/2 baths, three fireplaces and a large saltwater pool all on 1.56 acres. Horses are allowed. Easy walking distance to music in Hopelands Gardens and adjacent historic Hitchcock Woods. This home is set comfortably back with a slate floored front porch, a spacious elegant dining room with a gas starter wood burning fireplace and a spectacular crystal chandelier sourced from a Chicago mansion. The master bedroom includes a tile surround Victorian fireplace. One bedroom decorated in ''Lauren'' style could be perfect for a dressing room. The kitchen is a working delight with a vintage six burner Franklin stove, large island, second oven, party closet and overhead large pot rack found in an Edgefield, SC butcher shop. There is an extra-large family room with an early 1900s bar brought in from Savannah, Georgia, 25 feet of bookcases with lower built-in cabinets, a green Vermont casing iron gas fireplace tucked in an inglenook overlooking the pool and gardens. The huge back deck extending into the woods with fence railing fashioned exactly after Hopeland's garden fencing. Lining the driveway are cedars planted in 1905 as the west fence line for historic ''Sandhurst.'' There are over 20 varieties of camellias planted in the 1960s joined by mature boxwoods surrounding the pool, incredible hollies, many azaleas, ferns and spring blooming forsythia and sasanqua. This is a property in a wonderful private location and has been painstakingly landscaped, detailed and loved.
