Terrific “Walk to Main Street” (and we mean safely on an actual sidewalk!) from the Holt Knob neighborhood in Highlands. You'll fall in love with this lovely 3 bedroom 2 bath brick ranch with 2 fireplaces and a huge back deck. It even has a beautiful winter view that could be opened up for year round enjoyment. Brand new HVAC installation July 2019. A note from the Seller: This quiet little home in a quiet little community in a quiet little mountain town is the perfect getaway for a couple or family looking to escape from the rigors of the larger world. It's located on Holt Knob, a simple stroll from downtown Highlands, just a few hundred yards, in fact. That means you can walk to world-class restaurants, Highlands' jewel of a shopping district, The Bascom (the community's art gallery), Highlands Civic Center, Hudson Library, Harris Lake, Highlands Nature Center and Botanical Gardens, and The Highlands Performing Arts Center (home of the internationally-recognized Highlands-Cashiers Chamber Music Festival). The home itself is clean and modest. With the judicious application of your personal style, it can be an inviting seasonal getaway, or a comfy year-round house. For the last 25 years, it's been the home of a couple who raised a boy who's now graduated and moved out into the larger world. The neighborhood is quaint and cozy, and with a little effort, you can come to know everyone on the Knob.
