The Fast Facts on 102 Harborough Road

This is a one story home in the Stonehaven subdivision, Anderson County, zip 29625. No HOA. Public water, septic tank, crawl space foundation, architectural shingle roof.

The numbers that matter

  • Price: $259,900, or roughly $150 per square foot
  • Size: 3 bedrooms, 2 full baths, 1,732 square feet
  • Lot: listed remarks say about 0.72 acres with a creek border
  • Schools: Centerville Elementary, Lakeside Middle, Westside High
  • HOA: none, which is rarer than buyers expect at this price

Pro Tip

The MLS lot field and the listing remarks do not agree on acreage. Always pull the county parcel record before you fall in love with a lot size. I do this on every deal, and it changes the offer more often than you would think.

Why the Creekside Lot Is the Real Story

Interiors can be changed. Land cannot. That is why the lot is the first thing I look at on a home like this.

The property backs to a creek and sits in a park-like setting with a gentle slope and scattered trees. You get privacy without paying a premium subdivision price for it.

What the outdoor space gives you

  • A screened porch for spring and fall, not just July
  • An open deck for grilling and hosting
  • A natural back boundary instead of a neighbor's fence
  • Room for a garden, a shed, or a fire pit
  • Street lights in the community for evening walks

What to check before you commit

  • Flood zone designation and whether flood insurance is required
  • How the slope drains during a heavy rain
  • Septic tank location, age, and last pump date
  • Whether the creek is a recorded easement or setback
  • Survey and pin locations against the fence and tree line

Buyers fall in love with the kitchen. Smart buyers fall in love with the lot, then negotiate the kitchen.

That 400 Square Feet of Bonus Space

The listing remarks describe roughly 400 square feet of heated and cooled basement level space. That is the most flexible square footage in the whole house.

Home office, gym, media room, teen hangout, or a quiet space for a parent staying with you. Very few homes under $275,000 in this area offer that separation.

Highest and best uses I would consider

  • Remote work: a door that closes is worth real money now
  • Home gym: saves a monthly membership and the drive
  • Guest suite: useful if you host Clemson game weekends
  • Hobby or studio: noise stays out of the main living area
  • Resale story: flexible space widens your future buyer pool

Pro Tip: The MLS basement field reads None while the remarks describe finished lower level space. Ask for the permit history and confirm whether that square footage counts as heated living area on the appraisal. It affects your loan and your future listing.

Location: Lake Hartwell, Clemson Boulevard, and I-85

Centerville sits in a useful spot. You are close to the Clemson Boulevard retail corridor without living on top of it.

Lake Hartwell is nearby for boating and fishing. I-85 gives you a straight shot toward Greenville in one direction and Atlanta in the other.

Who this location fits best

  • Buyers who want lake access without lakefront pricing
  • Commuters splitting time between Anderson and Greenville
  • Clemson area families who want more lot for the money
  • Remote workers trading square footage for a quieter setting
  • Anyone tired of HOA rules and monthly dues

Key Insight

Anderson is running near balance right now. Recent local data shows homes taking roughly two months to sell and closing around 98 percent of list price. That is not a bidding war market. You have room to inspect, negotiate, and ask for repairs.

What $259,900 Actually Costs You Each Month

List price is not your payment. Here is the rough math at the current 30 year fixed average of 6.67 percent.

With 20 percent down, you are financing about $207,920. Principal and interest lands near $1,338 per month before taxes and insurance.

The line items people forget

  • Property tax: the listed annual figure is $7,250
  • The 4 vs 6 rule: SC assesses primary homes at 4 percent, others at 6 percent
  • Insurance: get a quote early, especially with a creek on the lot
  • Septic: budget for periodic pumping instead of a sewer bill
  • PMI: applies if you put down less than 20 percent

Pro Tip: That $7,250 tax figure looks like a non-owner-occupied assessment. If this becomes your legal residence in South Carolina, file for the 4 percent assessment ratio with the Anderson County Assessor. It can cut the bill meaningfully. Run your own numbers on the mortgage calculator and the affordability calculator.

How to Tour 102 Harborough Road and Write a Smart Offer

Five steps. Do them in this order and you will not overpay or get surprised at closing.

  • Step 1. Get fully underwritten. Not prequalified. Underwritten. Start with a vetted lender so your offer carries weight.
  • Step 2. Tour in person and in the rain if you can. Walk the creek line, the slope, and the crawl space. Ask where water goes.
  • Step 3. Pull the comps. Compare against the last six months of Centerville sales, not the whole city. Check recent solds first.
  • Step 4. Verify the three conflicts. Acreage, basement square footage, and the tax assessment ratio. All three change your number.
  • Step 5. Write with terms, not just price. Inspection window, septic inspection, closing timeline, and repair credits often beat an extra $3,000.
