Nestled in the heart of downtown Highlands, this enchanting three-bedroom, two-bath cottage is a rare blend of timeless character, architectural charm, and thoughtful designer updates. Rich in history and filled with original details - including exposed original beams- this precious home has been lovingly restored while offering the modern comforts today's buyers desire. The updated kitchen flows effortlessly into inviting living spaces, creating the perfect setting for everyday living or weekend entertaining. Outside, a charming outdoor dining area invites you to enjoy cool mountain evenings surrounded by the beauty and privacy of this special property. Wrapped in classic shake siding and topped with a durable metal roof, this picture-perfect dollhouse is being offered furnished (with a few exclusions), making it an exceptional turnkey opportunity. The backyard provides plenty of room for your dogs to play, while the detached garage is the perfect place to house your collector car, or additional storage. A large outdoor screened porch has a wood-burning fireplace for evenings where you want to hear the crackle and smell of real wood. Tucked away at the end of a quiet road, you'll enjoy a surprising sense of privacy while being just moments from Highlands' celebrated restaurants, boutiques, galleries, and parks. Live close to everything you love without sacrificing the peaceful feeling of coming home. Beautifully cared for. Loved. Full of history. One of those rare homes that simply captures your heart.
