About this home
Move-in ready with a private pool, two primary suites, and no HOA, The Copper Dwelling is a distinctive copper-clad home in Rock Hill's highly sought-after, established Seventeen Acres neighborhood. Designed by Greg Tew while he was an associate professor at Winthrop University's School of Design, this dogtrot-inspired home blends inviting gathering spaces, black locust hardwood floors, mahogany cabinets and doors, and a wood-burning fireplace. More than 700 copper pieces of siding adorn the exterior. It is so unique that the home was featured in an August 14, 2026 edition of the Post and Courier.
The kitchen features a Miele five-burner gas range and oven, a stand-alone island, and the spacious dining room welcomes gatherings. A soaring breakfast room with an antique chandelier overlooks the garden and pool. Two primary suites provide flexibility and privacy. One is an expansive retreat with a sitting area, a deck overlooking the backyard, a custom walk-through closet, and an ensuite bathroom with dual sinks, a clawfoot tub, and a walk-through shower with dual showerheads and benches. The original primary bedroom has its own ensuite bathroom. Wake up to sun streaming into these spaces. Two additional bedrooms, another full bath, a loft, and an upper-level laundry room complete the layout.
Enjoy the fenced backyard oasis, where the private in-ground pool creates an inviting retreat. The yard has space for a fire pit, a covered area for your outdoor grill, and mature foliage that shades parts of the yard. The separate, climate-controlled pool house offers space for a home gym, entertainment area, or dedicated home office, complete with a garage roll-up door, sink, and counter space. An attached one-car garage has a workbench, and the adjoining rear workshop, previously used as an art studio, provides ample storage. A roof was installed in 2020.
Live half a mile from Winthrop University and enjoy its public spaces: a one-mile loop around Winthrop Lake, about five miles of walking and biking paths, an 18-hole disc golf course that hosts the College Disc Golf National Championship, free gallery exhibitions, 100+ music, theatre, and dance performances each year, Eagles games, and the Come-See-Me Festival. Earthfare is your closest grocery store, and historic Old Town Rock Hill offers dining, festivals, concerts in the park, the Mural Mile, the Center for the Arts, and Gettys Art Center.
Rock Hill has 30+ miles of greenways and trails and 31 city parks. Launch a kayak, canoe, or paddleboard at the Rock Hill Outdoor Center at Riverwalk, float the Catawba River, or boat and fish on Lake Wylie. Golf at Waterford Golf Club, take a yoga or fitness class, or watch national tournaments at the Rock Hill Sports & Event Center. The BMX Supercross Track, Giordana Velodrome, and Rock Hill Aquatics Center round out this amateur sports mecca, home of the American Cornhole League headquarters.
I-77 is a 2.5- to 3-mile drive, and Charlotte is about 30 minutes away for Michelin-recognized restaurants, the Charlotte Ballet and Symphony, Broadway shows, the Mint and Bechtler museums, live jazz, and Panthers, Hornets, Knights, Checkers, and Charlotte FC games.
WalletHub ranks South Carolina 4th lowest in the nation for real estate property taxes in 2026, and today, owner-occupied homes are assessed at 4% of market value. South Carolina does not tax Social Security benefits, and there is no estate or inheritance tax. In-state universities include Furman, Wofford, Winthrop, The Citadel, Clemson, and the University of South Carolina.
