    What's special

    A Distinguished Mountain Estate in Highlands - Positioned just moments from the refined boutiques and acclaimed dining of downtown Highlands, this exceptional 4-bedroom, 4-bath residence captures the essence of elevated mountain living. Overlooking a private, tranquil pond, the property offers a rare blend of natural grandeur and sophisticated design. Thoughtfully conceived with both architectural presence and livability in mind, the home’s grand living room is defined by soaring ceilings, dramatic vertical volume, and a statement stone fireplace that anchors the space with warmth and scale. Expansive windows invite the landscape indoors, creating a seamless dialogue between refined interiors and the surrounding beauty. The kitchen and adjoining dining area are tailored for elegant entertaining and effortless daily living alike, offering an open yet intimate flow ideal for hosting. Every detail reflects comfort without compromise. The primary suite is a private sanctuary, complete with its own screened terrace — an intimate retreat suspended among the treetops. A second screened outdoor living room located just off the kitchen, is enhanced by a striking fireplace, serves as a year-round extension of the home, perfect for curated gatherings or quiet evenings enveloped in cool mountain air. Located in one of the Southeast’s most coveted high-elevation enclaves - RIVERWALK. Whether envisioned as a legacy mountain home or an exclusive seasonal escape, this is a property of rare distinction — where luxury, privacy, and proximity converge. 30 day rentals are allowed.
