    What's special

    Track lightingInviting garden areasPeaceful cul-de-sacSerene woodland settingQuiet private corner
    This beautifully crafted, 1,568 square foot cabin combines charm. comfort and quality craftsmanship throughout. Built by a custom builder for his family member, it is tucked away in a quiet, private corner of the ever-popular Holly Forest community in Sapphire Valley. It is conveniently located at the end of a peaceful cul-de-sac surrounded only by the soothing sounds of nature. Set slightly above the road, the property offers a serene woodland setting with level ground that offers convenient parking and inviting garden areas. Inside you will find all new, never-used stainless steel kitchen appliances and gorgeous new hardwood flooring throughout the home. The great room features vaulted ceilings, track lighting and a wonderful, double-sided, wood-burning fireplace that opens to the kitchen/dining area. There are 2 bedrooms and baths on the main floor as well as a loft area just above the great room which would serve as a great office, reading corner or hobby space.

Spend relaxing afternoons on the generous covered porch that wraps around half of the home, part of which is screened and perfect for dining al fresco in our glorious mountain air. An important asset of this cabin is a fully encapsulated crawl space for added protection and efficiency. A very unique feature is that it borders on a greenway space that leads right to Hogback Lake just a short distance below the lot line, allowing access to swim or fish if a walking trail was cleared. Enjoy easy access to nearby hiking trails, waterfalls, golf courses, gym, skiing, tubing and zip lining as well as dining and shopping opportunities found throughout Sapphire Valley and nearby Cashiers, while still feeling completely immersed in the peace and beauty of the mountains.
