Description

For the first time since 1964, Sunset Farm is available to the public. Spanning 203.7 gently rolling acres in northern Aiken County, this historic generational estate is located at 1242 Whispering Pine Road, Ridge Spring-conveniently positioned 6 miles south of Ridge Spring, 9 miles north of the Hwy. 1 / I-20 intersection, and 15 miles north of Aiken.

The Historic Farmhouse

The centerpiece of the property is a magnificent, antebellum-style farmhouse originally constructed in 1914 from pine timber sawn directly off this land. Offering 2,978 square feet of heated and cooled living space, the home perfectly balances historic character with modern updates.

  • Layout: 4 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, a formal dining room, a traditional parlor, and a spacious family room.
  • Recent Updates: A completely remodeled kitchen (2019) and updated pine flooring.
  • Outdoor Living: 1,465 square feet of sweeping, double wrap-around porches-ideal for entertaining or watching the sunrise and sunset.
  • Utilities: Private well and septic system, with county water already plumbed and ready for immediate hookup. High-speed fiber internet and power are fully available.

The Land & Infrastructure

Beyond the homestead, the remaining acreage operates as a highly versatile, turnkey 203-acre working cattle farm. Currently leased to a local farmer, a new owner has the immediate option to continue the lease or repurpose the land.

  • Pastures: Approximately 170 acres of well-established Bermuda grass, currently used for both hay production and grazing.
  • Outbuildings: 7 barns, sheds, and outbuildings providing ample equipment storage, plus two 1,000-bushel grain bins.
  • Water & Fencing: Miles of existing fencing, multiple corrals, multiple water tanks, and 2 distinct ponds. The northern pond is a watershed pond (just under an acre), while the southern pond is 1.25-acres, spring-fed, and stocked with fish.
  • Historical Versatility: The rich soils have historically supported cattle, horses, peaches, row crops, poultry, and swine.

Development & Investment Potential

With approximately 7,250 feet of total road frontage-including 5,600 feet of paved frontage along Whispering Pine Road and Satcher Pond Road, and 1,650 feet on Pitts Branch Road-the property offers incredible long-term flexibility. The gently rolling topography features multiple premium, potential homesites, making it a perfect candidate for a multi-family generational compound or equestrian estate.

Properties of this size, caliber, and deep-rooted history rarely come to market in Aiken County. Your dream of a legacy farm awaits.

Showings are strictly by appointment only. Do not enter the property without the listing agent present. The farmhouse, barns, sheds, and outbuildings are being sold as-is.
