This enchanting single-level mountain home at 630 Cobb Road perfectly blends the timeless charm of “Old Highlands” with the modern upgrades today’s buyers seek. Within the prestigious Highlands Country Club, this beautifully updated 4-bedroom, 4-bath residence sits on a meticulously landscaped 0.57-acre lot, offering captivating views of the 5th hole of the championship Donald Ross golf course and the surrounding mountains. Thoughtful renovations have preserved the home's original character, including gleaming hardwood floors, wormwood walls in the bedrooms and dining room, and a cozy stone wood-burning fireplace in the living room. No detail was overlooked: a lifetime metal roof and a fully updated kitchen—featuring double Bosch ovens—enhance both functionality and style. The primary bedroom now features vaulted ceilings, adding charm and character to the space. Both the main house and the guest cottage have been fully encapsulated, ensuring structural integrity and year-round comfort. The home offers excellent bedroom separation, providing privacy for both family and guests. Each bedroom features its own beautifully appointed bathroom. A charming back deck invites you to enjoy cool mountain evenings while listening to the sounds of children playing or watching golfers pass by. A stone patio off the dining area offers the perfect spot to unwind after dinner with a cup of tea beneath the stars. The separate guest house, also adorned with original wormwood walls, includes a full bath and a coffee bar—creating a welcoming, self-contained retreat for visiting friends or family. Just across the fairway, the club’s canoe dock offers opportunities for fishing, paddling, or enjoying a sunset cocktail. Additional highlights include new paved parking, a fire pit, and a private putting green. Offered furnished and move-in ready, this home provides a lifestyle of leisure and understated elegance—just minutes from downtown Highlands' award-winning restaurants, art galleries, spas, and vibrant cultural scene, as well as nearby hiking trails and waterfalls.

This enchanting single-level mountain property in Highlands Country Club is the epitome of "old Highlands" charm. The owners have made all the updates that today's buyers expect but have retained the magic of years gone by, such as gleaming hardwood floors and wormwood walls in the bedrooms and dining room. There were no corners cut with this renovation; a new lifetime metal roof was added, and windows, doors, and kitchen were all updated. A new dual-fueled efficient heat pump with humidity control, which can be monitored and adjusted from your cell phone, was added, and both main house and cottage have been encapsulated. Great separation of bedroom spaces affords everyone their privacy as well as their own baths. The beautifully updated kitchen boasts double Bosch ovens so the chef won't have to juggle oven time and temperatures. The back deck is the perfect spot to enjoy the cool summer temperatures while listening to the sounds of children playing in the yard. Views of the 5th hole on the championship Donald Ross course can be seen from the rear of the home. The owners have enjoyed many golf days during which they drove right up to the deck for lunch or to pick up a grandchild for a ride. The cozy stone patio off the dining area is a perfect place to enjoy an after-dinner cup of tea. A separate guest house boasts wormwood walls, a full bath, plus a coffee bar, and will keep your overflow guests cozy and happy. The home is directly across the golf course from the club canoe dock where one can fish, canoe, and paddleboard; it is also makes a wonderful spot for sunset cocktails. This home is only minutes away from downtown Highlands, where one can find award-winning restaurants, spas, art galleries, world-class shopping, the Bascom Center for the Visual Arts, the Highlands Playhouse, and the Performing Arts Center. Numerous hiking trails and waterfalls are nearby.
