About 540 Crescent Avenue

Now ready for its next chapter, Crescent Grove quietly presents one of Greenville’s most private and enduring in-town estates. Tucked behind mature landscaping on one of Greenville’s most iconic streets, this nearly one-acre property offers one of the most peaceful and secluded settings you’ll find inside the city limits. With over 8,000 square feet of living space, beautifully maintained interiors, a resort-style pool, and rare walkability to Augusta Road, downtown Greenville, and city parks, this is a rare opportunity to enjoy true privacy without giving up convenience. Known as Crescent Grove, the home has been thoughtfully updated over time, blending classic Southern architecture with timeless materials and ageless design. Think 200-year-old milled pine cabinetry from the Green River area near Asheville, heart pine floors, custom millwork, and soft natural light throughout. Everything feels elegant, warm, and built to last. At the center of the home is a welcoming, character-filled kitchen that flows seamlessly into generous living and dining spaces, designed for both quiet mornings and lively evenings. The main-level primary suite features a rare layout with dual bathrooms connected by a shared shower. Upstairs, a second primary suite provides flexibility for guests or multi-generational living, along with two additional bedrooms, each with its own private en-suite bath. The finished basement includes a wine cellar, billiards room, and another en-suite guest room. With a two-car attached garage plus a two-car detached garage, there is covered parking for four vehicles, a true rarity in this location. The home is also equipped with an automatic whole-home generator, providing peace of mind year-round. Above the detached garage, a private guest suite offers ideal space for a home gym, au pair, in-laws, visitors, or a home office, in addition to extensive finished and unfinished storage throughout the home. Out back, a flat grassy lawn is perfect for badminton, volleyball, or barefoot evenings catching fireflies. The pool, hot tub, and water feature create a serene, private outdoor escape that feels worlds away from downtown, even though it is just minutes down the road. Homes like Crescent Grove rarely come to market, especially with this level of privacy, scale, and location. This is classic Southern living at its most graceful, ready for you to enjoy this spring.
