Property Description
Inside, tobacco weathered acacia wood flooring runs throughout, setting a warm tone for every space. The kitchen is a true centerpiece, with custom wood cabinetry, high-end appliances, a breakfast bar, and French doors that open straight onto the deck — with a cozy coffee nook tucked just off to the side. A wood-beamed living room centers on a stacked-stone fireplace, and the adjoining dining room is finished with wainscoting.
All three bedrooms are ensuite with king beds. The primary suite is a retreat of its own: a private office with French doors opening to the deck and mountain views, a spa-caliber bathroom with a custom stone-wall walk-in shower, and a built-in sauna that seats four. Heated slate floors run through all three bathrooms. A well-appointed laundry room adds a stackable washer/dryer, a sink, and a custom built-in dog bed.
Outside, the home offers an oversized two-car garage/outbuilding with untapped potential, a circular driveway, a single-car carport, and dedicated RV parking — all connected by a gravel drive that winds past the terraced, landscaped grounds. It's a rare combination of privacy and usable land in the Highlands market, with views of Yellow Mountain from the property.
In the last two years, the sellers have replaced the septic system, furnace, and water heater, rewired and re-plumbed the entire home, rebuilt the deck, and added additional insulation for year-round efficiency — the next owner inherits not just beautiful finishes, but a home that's been renewed from the ground up.
Just 5 minutes to the Yellow Mountain trailhead, 15 minutes to downtown Highlands, 25 minutes to Cashiers, and 30 minutes to Franklin — private, move-in ready, and perfectly positioned to enjoy everything the Plateau has to offer.
