First time offered by the original owners, this beautifully maintained brick home at 1 Penmar Street reflects years of thoughtful care and pride of ownership. It is set on a rare and private 1.4-acre lot in Houndslake North. Tucked into an elevated setting, where privacy, natural surroundings, and a pleasant vantage point create a true sense of retreat. From the moment you arrive, the inviting front porch with transom windows sets the tone for a home that feels both classic and welcoming. Inside, the foyer opens to a spacious great room anchored by a striking stone gas fireplace and a custom media wall designed for everyday living and easy entertaining. The dining room is gracious in size and detailed with refined moldings, offering a warm setting for gatherings both large and small. The kitchen is well-planned and functional, featuring abundant warm wood cabinetry, luminous granite countertops with backsplash, stainless steel appliances, a pantry, and a serving bar that flows naturally into a bright breakfast area. It's a space that supports both quiet mornings and casual hosting with ease. Warm wood flooring carries through much of the home, adding character and continuity throughout. The primary suite offers a comfortable and private retreat, complete with a soaking tub, custom easy-entry walk-in shower, large vanity, and a spacious, well-designed closet. The main level features a split-bedroom layout, with two additional bedrooms that share an updated bath finished with timeless neutral-tone granite. Upstairs, a large fourth bedroom with a full bath provides flexibility for guests, a home office, or bonus space to suit your needs. Outdoor living is just as inviting, with a generous, low-maintenance deck overlooking a peaceful wooded setting. The property offers a true sense of space and privacy, with beautiful greenspace that is increasingly hard to find--creating a setting that feels quietly tucked away while still being in town. Additional features include an oversized side-entry garage, ample parking, and a detached three-car carport offering versatility for vehicles, hobbies, or storage. The home also features ample extra storage, a roof installed in 2024 and a main-level HVAC system approximately three years old. Located on the southwest side of Aiken, this property is convenient to Houndslake Country Club, where optional membership offers golf, tennis, pickleball, swimming, and dining. You're also just minutes from Hitchcock Woods, Aiken Town Park, everyday conveniences including Kroger, The Fresh Market, Home Depot as well as Historic Downtown Aiken. This is a rare opportunity to own a spacious, well-cared-for home in an established Aiken community--offering comfort, privacy, and a setting that truly feels like home.
