No, you're not seeing things. .. This is two Vintage Log Cabins on the same property! First, there's a Joe Webb Original (Former Hunting Cabin circa early 1900's) formerly known as "Blackberry Brae" paying homage to it's Scotch-Irish heritage and rich blackberry crop. The second dwelling is "Gilmer Cabin" (circa 1700) which has been shipped in from Anderson, SC and painstakingly rebuilt log-by-log & stone-by-stone to it's original state. Gilmer Cabin has roots to the American Revolution where it stood in "Bounty Land", an area used as buffer from the Indians during battles. The finishes on both cabins were facilitated by the late-great Tommy Chambers (Artisan Cabin Restoration Expert). Gilmer Cabin is a charming sleeping cottage for Family & Guests (both invited and uninvited) replete with a floor-to-ceiling fireplace, a lounging area for morning coffee, and the "slumbering loft" above. Inside the Joe Webb cabin you'll enter the family gathering spot with the original stone fireplace as the centerpiece, followed by a cozy eat-in kitchen, second sitting area, and outdoor deck, a full bathroom, and the Master bedroom well positioned at the end of the residence. Outside the cabins is where this property really shines. The fully screened-in porch at Gilmer Cabin is the gathering spot, complimented nicely by flower gardens, stone walls, ferns & flora. The lush lawns, locust-post fences, and mature tree canopy create many Good Vibrations. Beyond the property lies the Webbmont Community, among the most coveted addresses in on the Plateau. There's horse barns, a community garden, the headwaters of Bridal Veil Falls and a collection of Joe Webb Cabins that make you feel like you're in Maine or the Boundary Waters Canoe Area of Minnesota. But actually, you're in Highlands, NC. .. one of the last best places in the USA!
