1460 Shortoff Rd, Highlands, NC 28741

This fabulous legacy property has almost everything anyone could want in a mountain home. The property is minutes from downtown Highlands, with 5.88 entirely fenced acres. It offers privacy, a babbling creek traversing the property, a spring-fed pond, and a marvelous view of Shortoff Mountain. Then there's the house. A like-new mountain contemporary masterpiece with a well-thought-out open floor plan featuring main level easy flowing living space. A 'nano' collapsing glass wall leads from the dining area to the spacious screened porch, complete with a wood-burning fireplace. There's also loads of open decking. Shortoff Mountain is perfectly framed in the view from the great room with its soaring stone fireplace and two-story ceiling. The primary bedroom with wood-paneled ceilings is large yet cozy. The en suite bath has an amazing space with a shower, freestanding tub, and plenty of closet space for storage. Upstairs is a split plan divided by an ample loft with bedrooms and baths on each side. There's even 'secret' storage behind the bookshelves that little elves will love to explore. There is a finished bonus room above the garage with a full bath ready to turn into an office, media room, or additional living space. Extra planning abounds with a generous laundry room, mud room, whole house generator, four separate HVAC units, two Rinnai instant water heaters, and an encapsulated crawl space. This property is a property for those with an appreciation for unique, refined design. Get that remote feel with the 1 minute final approach on gravel!
