This 3 bedroom, 3.5 bath cottage serves as a spacious haven with several outdoor features including a covered wrap-around porch, extended screened-in porch, fenced in yard, lower gravel terrace with a firepit and lastly a gentle creek trickling along the edge of the property.
This home offers a spacious main level, sporting several sets of windows and glass doors which allow plenty of natural light to illuminate its vaulted ceilings, wooden beams and wood floors. On the main level, the family room is centered around the cozy stone gas log fireplace and provides access to the updated galley-style kitchen, breakfast bar, and dining area, as well as a half bath. Also on the main level is a bedroom (Queen) with private access to the screened porch and an ensuite bathroom with a walk-in shower.
The space above serves as a perfect lofted study, with comfortable seating and a desk/computer/printer combo. You'll also find another guest bedroom (King) with vaulted ceilings and an ensuite bath.
The lower level features a King Suite complete with a small kitchenette (fridge, sink, coffeemaker) and ensuite bath, as well as its own exterior access to the expansive outdoor area. The Laundry room and a space with a small game/card table finish off this level of the home.
All bedrooms and the main room have TV's with DirecTV, and the owners know how important internet access can be (even on vacation!) so they've invested in the new Starlink internet to optimize connectivity in the rural NC mountains.
This home is tucked into a beautiful spot in-between Highlands and Franklin, with 15 minutes drive to the wonderful downtown shops and restaurants that Highlands has to offer. Location amenities include in close proximity: Hiking at Van Hook Glade, and Cliffside Lake recreational areas; Fly Fishing on the Cullasaja River and Cliffside Lake, Scenic Waterfalls include Dry Falls, Bridal Veil Falls, and the Cullasaja Gorge areas (Bust-your-Butt Falls).
