Beautiful chalet-style home offers mountain ridge line views on 2.2 acres, just 9 minutes from Highlands' Main Street. This property is filled with places to gather, relax, and take in the natural landscape, with two indoor living rooms, 3 separate decks, 7-person hot tub, 5 stone fireplaces, water feature with waterfall, and a gazebo with firepit. A level 2 EV Charger is in the garage as well. Home currently has 3 bedrooms, 2 1/2 baths, but is being renovated to be 4 beds, 4 baths, AND a bunk bed room (sleeps 11). This additional living space will be available in summer 2026! A full home standby generator ensures the power always stays on.
The home’s upper level is a spacious primary suite with a king sized bed, ensuite bath, a wall of closets, a large-screen smart TV and a coffee bar for long, relaxing mornings. Step through the bedroom’s French doors onto the private screened porch, complete with couches and a fireplace - perfect for sipping your morning coffee or cozying up by the fire in the evenings. You may even glimpse the deer that frequent the front yard!
There is a climate-controlled walk-in closet adjacent to the primary suite that guests have reported is used by their children as a “secret hideout” for playing or even sleeping. Children’s mattresses are provided in this walk-in closet.
Also adjacent to the primary bedroom is an office space. A monitor, mouse, and keyboard, combined with high-speed satellite internet, adds convenience. This is the fastest and most reliable internet for the area.
The main level showcases beautiful views and abundant natural light through the soaring double-height wall of windows, opening onto the large outdoor deck with stone fireplace, plenty of seating, and dining table for 6.
The main level’s open floor plan includes:
- living room with massive floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace
- soaring beamed tongue and groove ceilings
- large-screen smart TV
- double size sofa sleeper
- gourmet kitchen
- 2 well-appointed bedrooms
- mudroom

Dine inside or out with each table seating 6. The kitchen comes well stocked with granite countertops, full gas range, and a wine bar and wine cooler that opens to the living room. Also provided is a dual pod and drip Keurig coffee maker, starter pods and creamers, and a variety of seasonings.
A finished terrace level serves as a second living room/game room, complete with a gas fireplace, sofa sleeper, game table and smart TV. Games, puzzles and books are supplied.
For outdoor fun, enjoy the ping pong table, youth-sized pool table, giant Connect Four, and beanbag toss game provided in the garage.
The ground level also includes:

Exterior audio/visual cameras are on the property for your security. These cameras cannot see the hot tub.
Other items supplied to make your vacation carefree are camping chairs and beach towels. As an added amenity, there is a scavenger hunt consisting of 5 life-sized stenciled “animals” hidden on the property that we encourage guests to try to find.
Downtown Highlands is a short 9 minutes away with upscale shopping, fine dining, outdoor music venues, art galleries, and much more.
Located in Highlands, this vacation home is in a rural area and in the mountains. Highlands Playhouse and The Bascom Center for the Visual Arts are cultural highlights, and some of the area's attractions include Highlands Biological Station and Cashiers Farmers Market.
