Less than a mile from Highlands Country Club, just outside Highlands city limits, sits the designer masterpiece, Copper Fox. Tucked away in the rhododendron are three beautifully designed and decorated dwellings. The Main house consists of three bedrooms two and half baths with room for expansion on the terrace level. The owner just finished a den addition on the terrace level and a sun room off of the dining room that is perched in the trees where it receives wonderful daylight in the winter months. The carriage house consists of an attached single car carport, large living room with kitchen nook on main level and studio with full private bath upstairs. Both homes contain many custom built-ins, wood floors and tiled baths. Below the main house sits the two car garage with an unfinished upstairs that would make an excellent office or caretaker quarters. All of this surrounded by formal boxwood gardens and informal native plantings that take your mind away from the bustle of everyday life. The brilliant former owners spent the last ten years perfecting the masterpiece and now are looking for someone that will love it as much as they had. Nothing on the market currently compares to this.
