About this home

An updated and tastefully furnished in-town Highlands’s cottage with deeded access and a dock on Lake Sequoyah.. 2 bedrooms and 1.5 baths PLUS a loft enables a family of 6 or friends to partake in the many activities of being in town Highlands. Shopping, restaurants, live music, theater and special festivals. Short-term rentals are allowed and the cabin has an excellent rental history. These homes rarely come on the market where you can canoe or kayak from your own dock. Enjoy an afternoon of fishing and have a fresh catch for dinner. Take in the view of the lake from the expansive deck or gather around the fire pit. This one won’t last long.
