      AWAY FROM THE HUSTLE AND BUSTLE OF GREENVILLE IS UP FOR SALE. AND GET THIS, IF IT SELLS FOR ITS ASKING PRICE, IT COULD SET A SOUTH CAROLINA RECORD. WE TOURED THE PROPERTY AND GOT A CLOSER LOOK AT THE $22 MILLION MASTERPIECE. A. 16,000 SQUARE FOOT HOUSE WHERE EVERY INCH TELLS A STORY. WE HAVE A LAMP POST FROM CENTRAL PARK IN NEW YORK. WE HAVE PLANTERS MADE FROM MATERIALS FROM THE GREAT WALL OF CHINA AND EVEN NODS TO THE UPSTATE. THE ROOM THAT WE’RE IN NOW, THESE GIANT BEAMS CAME IN THE OLD CLIFTON MILL IN SPARTANBURG, SO IT WAS MADE FROM SCRATCH AND HAND-BUILT HERE. YOU’RE JUST A 15 MINUTE DRIVE FROM WOODRUFF ROAD, BUT YOU MAY FEEL LIKE YOU’VE BEEN TRANSPORTED THOUSANDS OF MILES AWAY TO THE ENGLISH COUNTRYSIDE, WHICH YOU CAN STILL ESCAPE BACK TO YOUR 54 ACRE, YOU KNOW, SECLUDED ESTATE. AND YOU CAN’T SEE NEAR THE NEIGHBORS AROUND. SO IT’S JUST A RARE SANCTUARY, A SANCTUARY THAT INCLUDES A STATE OF THE ART EQUESTRIAN FACILITY WITH TWO OUTDOOR ARENAS, A COVERED ARENA AND A BARN WITH 12 STALLS. AND BACK IN THE HOUSE, LISTING, AGENT DAMIAN HALL SAYS EVERY AMENITY A LUXURY HOMEOWNER COULD WANT IS INCLUDED. ALL THE WAY DOWN TO THE BASEMENT. THERE’S A MOVIE THEATER DOWN THERE. THERE’S A INCREDIBLE WINE CELLAR THAT LOOKS LIKE IT FELL OFF THE PAGES OF ARCHITECTURAL DIGEST. IT’S THE MOST EXPENSIVE HOME LISTED IN THE STATE, ACCORDING TO HALL. HE SAYS THE SECOND MOST EXPENSIVE HOME SOLD IN THE UPSTATE WAS IN 21 FOR 20.5 MILLION. THE VANDAR HORSE MANSION ON KIAWAH ISLAND. BUT HALL SAYS THIS PROPERTY IS WORTH EVERY PENNY. I MEAN, TO RECREATE THIS PROPERTY RIGHT NOW WOULD BE OVER $30 MILLION. THAT’S EVEN IF YOU COULD FIND THE LAND. SO IT’S A REALLY EXCEPTIONAL PROPERTY. AS FOR WHAT’S NEXT, HALL SAYS THEY’RE EXCITED TO SEE WHAT FAMILY WOULD LIKE TO CALL IT HOME. BUT THERE COULD BE ANOTHER FUTURE FOR THE PROPERTY AS WELL. WE ALSO THINK IT COULD BE AN ENTITY THAT WANTS TO CREATE AN AMAZING EVENT VENUE OR BE AND BE KIND OF LIKE HOTEL DOMESTIQUE. THIS WOULD BE A FABULOUS OPTION FOR THAT. OVER THE YEARS, THE HOMEOWNERS HAVE HOSTED MANY EVENTS AT THE PROPERTY, LIKE FUNDRAISERS FOR SEVERAL LOCAL CHARITIES. THEY SAY T

              Hall says the quality of construction is the biggest selling point of the home.

              "The house was essentially hand-built, using materials from all over the world," Hall said.
