About this home

Kick back and gaze upon one of the oldest mountains in the world from this charming Highlands cabin. The original owners who built this peaceful retreat kept it in the family for decades, but now it can be yours. The four-bedroom, one-and-a-half bathroom home is ideally situated on a forested, 4.11-acre lot, which opens up to reveal the spectacular view of Whiteside Mountain. Two streams trickle through the property, which abounds with native rhododendrons, laurels, and a lush carpet of moss. An expansive screened porch or the wood-burning fireplace offer the perfect amenities for leisure in a wooded setting. The private location allows you to seclude yourself miles from the hustle and bustle of modern life but still access the arts, entertainment, shopping, and fine dining offered by nearby Highlands and Cashiers. Take advantage of this opportunity to own a slice of paradise in Highlands, NC.
