    Enchanting english cottageTwo fireplacesBeamed ceilingsBuilt-in bookcasesStorybook charmCharacter-filled residenceCommunity firepit
    Storybook charm meets relaxed mountain elegance in this enchanting English cottage in Riverwalk, a gated community just minutes from the heart of downtown Highlands. One of the community’s original cottages, this character-filled residence showcases timeless Arts and Crafts details, beamed ceilings, two fireplaces, and inviting indoor-outdoor living spaces. The open-concept great room showcases a dramatic floor-to-ceiling fireplace flanked by built-in bookcases, while a wall of windows frames peaceful views toward the pond. The kitchen flows effortlessly into the living and entertaining areas, including a serene screened porch with its own wood burning fireplace—the perfect setting for cool Highlands mornings, intimate dinners, or evenings by the fire. The main-level owner’s suite offers a private retreat with its own screened porch overlooking the pond in the distance. A guest bedroom is also conveniently located on the main level. Upstairs, two generously sized bedrooms each feature en suite baths, complemented by a cozy loft ideal for reading, or relaxing. Lower-level storage offers ample room for gardening equipment, outdoor gear, or a workshop. A recent synthetic shake roof installation gives peace of mind for many years to come. Set along the beautiful Cullasaja River, Riverwalk offers a wonderful sense of community with a shared dock for canoe and kayak access, a community firepit, and gentle roads ideal for leisurely walks with furry friends. Offered furnished with select exclusions, this delightful cottage provides an effortless opportunity to begin enjoying the Highlands lifestyle. Staging items do not convey. The striking painting above the mantel by local artist Bobby Sikes is available for purchase outside of the sale of the home. Just minutes from bustling downtown Highlands, enjoy exceptional shopping and dining along with seasonal concerts, festivals, farmers markets, art shows, and countless outdoor adventures. Escape to the cool mountain temperatures and experience the charm, beauty, and relaxed sophistication of life on the Highlands-Cashiers Plateau.
