Someone is going to have a lot of rooms to furnish when they move into the iconic Belle Terre home in Simpsonville.
But that move-in may soon be taking place.
The 38-acre property, located at 455 McKinney Rd. in Simpsonville, recently went under contract and will be closing in June, according to Joan Herlong & Associates | Sotheby’s International Realty, which listed the property. Sales price? Just under $9 million. If you’re wondering, property taxes are in the $15,000 range … but as the saying goes, if you have to ask, you probably can’t afford it.
Herlong is discreet about who the buyer is, so for now we’ll have to make do with a look inside the home. Situated minutes from downtown Simpsonville, the home mixes eclectic styles with traditional decor.
Belle Terre, by the numbers:
- 6 bedrooms
- 7 full baths
- 4 partial baths
- 12,437 square feet
- 38 acre exterior
- Built in 2015
In the meantime, take a look around, courtesy Joan Herlong’s team:

Elaborate landscaping designed by architect Dabney Peoples greets visitors first, including a vineyard, with a water feature. But you’ll have to share the space: the land is also home to 13 cows.

The gated front entry is lit by gas lanterns and adorned with fountains.

The outdoor Gunite pool offers plenty of space to unwind, with a spa, two fire pits and a pool house. Or for those looking for a more natural water feature, the land also includes a two-acre stocked pond.

Plenty of space for parking: The house comes with a 10-car attached garage and detached three-car garage.
