Property Description

This is a rare opportunity to own acreage and one of the most unique homes in the area, and with views of Shortoff Mountain! 16.43 acres with two ponds, a custom-built house by Tommy Chambers, pump house, a large garage and an additional building. From the covered front porch, enter into a unique foyer with a wood-burning stove, stone floors and access to stairs leading up, the laundry room, a large game/viewing room and full bath. There is an elevator off the laundry that also can access the second level. As you walk up the stairs you are greeted with a generous family room with a large stone fireplace, and open to the kitchen and dining areas. Note the details like wood ceilings and beams, bay windows, stained glass windows, custom wood cabinets, old doors with transoms and unique lighting fixtures. The primary suite is located on this floor as well as a second bedroom and bath. Enjoy views of Shortoff Mountain from the dining area or primary bedroom. The upper level has a room that could be a studio, office or playroom and the third bedroom. The antique pine logs (circa 1865) are from a cabin in Thomasville, Georgia and the antique heart pine wood (circa 1875) is from a railroad station in Charlotte. The roof is a standing-seam metal, there are copper gutters with antique scuppers and lightning protection. Outside is a stone terrace and a covered area perfect for outdoor dining. The house overlooks a meadow with fruit trees, bushes and vines, and a double-door garage with workshop and unfinished second floor. Follow the asphalt drive that borders the property to view the 16-acre property, two ponds, an additional building and underground utilities. Use as a private mountain retreat or subdivide the acreage up to 4 additional estate lots. Only minutes to downtown Highlands, ranked America's Best Small Mountain Town by Travel & Leisure Magazine in 2021.
