Welcome to Dragon Wall Estate - www.dragonwallestate.com (copy URL and paste in browser). As you can see, it's one of a kind. It is the perfect oasis to Zen one’s life and/or entertain friends and clients. Its Zen Garden of Contentment & Happiness is one of only five or so AUTHENTIC Chinese classical gardens in the US. It is the only one that can be bought; the others are public gardens. For a short video of the garden, see https://youtu.be/XUktPtnvlSI.
The garden was designed and built by Beijing architect Yong Pan, creator of the famous Chinese Gardens at the Missouri Botanical Gardens (https://www.missouribotanicalgarden.org/gardens-gardening/our-garden/gardens-conservatories/international-gardens/chinese-garden) - remarkably similar to Dragon Wall as both are modelled (copied) after the Scholar’s Gardens in SE China.
All materials and labor were imported from Suzhou, China.
The 6.6-acre estate is in bucolic countryside surrounded by forest and several small, upscale elegant horse farms yet near the high growth and dynamic towns of Greenville and Spartanburg, SC, minutes from GSP airport, the foothills of the Appalachian Mountains and many lakes.
The house has three sections all on a single level - a separate guest wing, an entertainment wing, and master wing. There is also an authentic Chinese cottage – a xiao wu.
The house is fully wired for audio, phone, and cable. There are 31 built in speakers, 9 speakers in the theater alone. There is an astonishing # of built-ins plus 5 storage rooms, and an indoor endless pool & spa.

What the owner loves about this home
We have a few sets of strong feelings – first, is the feeling of pride & accomplishment. The property had been neglected for the better part of 10 years. We brought it back to its stunning, idyllic Zen-full self. Instead of playing golf every day, we were, for the first time in our lives, plumbers, electricians, plasterers, painters, wood and metal workers, path builders, wall repairers, restoration gardeners, pond “experts” , tree surgeons, photographers, and so many other ”skilled” roles that have been alien to us all our lives.
Second, and perhaps by far the most important feeling – mental and physical health. The total Zen nature of the property, both indoors and outdoors, demands and gets mindfulness. Plus, the physical effort has made us fit whereas golf simply messed my back and destroyed by self-esteem – e.g., my resting heart rate went from around 70 to 47.
Finally, we have spent much quality time together, much of it even blissful.
Yes, it does Zen Your Life. And, it entertains.
