When Sierra Club founder John Muir penned his famous words, “The mountains are calling, and I must go,” he might’ve had 137 Wotawok Trail in mind. Sitting atop a ridge, this home captures a stunning northwestern panorama that brings the iconic granite dome of Table Rock Mountain touchably close, extends to several Blue Ridge ranges beyond, and takes in a portion of the Table Rock Reservoir. Originally four separate homesites, the setting is over ten secluded acres, yet the property is convenient to Clemson University, Greenville, and various nearby towns.

Past a gated entrance and private drive, the residence is surrounded by lovely landscaping with blooming colors in the warmer months. The interior exudes a casual, rustic charm with wood plank ceilings and walls in most main-level rooms. The great room features a two-story vaulted ceiling, soaring natural stone fireplace, and a wall of windows that gracefully frame the vista.

Stairs near the fireplace lead to a loft with stained glass windows on one end and an overlook to the great room on the other. The open kitchen incorporates a large center island with seating, generous pantry and cabinet storage, separate beverage area with bar sink and cooler, and skylight for abundant sunshine. Over 20 feet long, the adjoining dining area can accommodate a large table and party-sized crowd.

Multiple doors open to an Ipe deck that spans the entire rear of the home. The spacious master suite offers deck access and room for a sitting or office area. Its en suite has double sinks, jetted tub, and separate shower.

A second main-level bedroom with skylight is next door to a full hall bath. On the lower level, a wide family room has the home’s second river rock fireplace, as well as a bar area with fridge. Floor-to-ceiling windows allow the scenery to shine.

A generous bedroom (the home’s third) has outside access and is serviced by an adjacent hall bath. Completing the lower level is a fully equipped media room that makes for effortless movie nights, as well as a spare room suitable for an office or home gym. Outside, a lower-level patio is currently equipped with a fire pit for year-round enjoyment.

Nearby steps ascend up the hillside to a swing. Wotawok Trail is in the River Bluff community, located just off SC Highway 11, designated the Cherokee Foothills National Scenic Byway. The immediate surrounding area is replete with beauty and nature pursuits, including Lakes Jocassee and Keowee, Table Rock State Park, Caesars Head State Park, countless waterfalls and hiking trails, and more.
