About this home

This is a beautiful and unique property that you must see to appreciate. 5+/- acres of park-like manicured trails meander through the property - following a tumbling stream and taking you to the private waterfall, a large wood-burning fire pit; multiple seating areas, a swinging bridge and even a zip line! The trails also lead to a second gated driveway cut in and cleared for an additional home site or play area. The home is exceptional with cherry wood interiors, high end finishes and beautiful furniture and accessories that all stay with the property. The upper level open living room, dining area & kitchen is completely surrounded by windows giving you the feeling of living in a high end tree house. The Master suite is spacious with a seating area while the lower level is perfect for your guests with a sleeper sofa, game area and private bath. There is a large patio with a gas fire pit and wood burning BBQ . This incredible property is only 8.2 miles and a short drive from downtown Highlands but a world away from the daily grind!
