Tucked away on a quiet street just moments from downtown Highlands, this charming 1-bedroom, 1-bath cabin offers an ideal blend of comfort, convenience, and character. A rare opportunity to own a true *in-town* retreat, you'll enjoy the ease of walking to local shops, acclaimed restaurants, the Highlands Performing Arts Center, parks, and nearby hiking trails—no car needed. Thoughtfully updated by the current owner, the home has seen meaningful improvements including professional repairs to prior water intrusion, a fresh coat of paint on both the exterior and roof, and a beautifully enhanced outdoor living space. The fenced-in patio and stone fireplace create the perfect nook for relaxing evenings, entertaining guests, or providing a secure space for your pup. Inside, you’ll find warm wood finishes and D-log siding that deliver an authentic mountain-cabin feel. The layout is efficient and welcoming, with all the essentials for low-maintenance living or a peaceful weekend escape. Just across the lane is the community’s shared chimney garden, adding charm and green space just steps from your door. Ownership includes the home and a 1/29th share in the Chestnut Cottages LLC, which holds title to the land—an uncommon arrangement that offers simplicity and shared stewardship. Affordable, adorable, and incredibly well-located, this special cottage doesn’t come along often. Schedule your showing before it’s gone!
