Description

Featured in one of Atlanta’s premier design magazines, this Highlands home is a true SHOWSTOPPER. Perfectly designed for the person who loves to entertain 50 guests with ease—or for the one who treasures quiet moments in a private mountain sanctuary. Located just 2 minutes from Main Street in Highlands and not in an HOA, this exceptional property offers both convenience and independence. Lovingly cared for by the same family for 10 years. Originally built in 1976 and completely renovated in 2013 -the pride of ownership is evident in every thoughtful detail. Everything You Imagine — And More: From the vaulted, beamed ceilings in the living room to the dramatic floor-to-ceiling rock fireplaces, the main living space is both grand and inviting. The kitchen and baths are sleek and modern with Carrara marble, all beautifully appointed with Waterworks plumbing fixtures, faucets, and accessories, delivering timeless luxury and elevated design. Some bathrooms have heated floors. The primary suite is privately situated in its own wing on the main level, offering direct access to the back porch with premium double-paned windows, HVAC and a stunning stone-clad wood-burning fireplace. Your personal retreat for cool mountain evenings. Designed for Living & Entertaining: Formal dining room with it's own fireplace, for elegant dinner parties, or quiet dinners at home. Cozy library/den with its own fireplace—perfect for football Saturdays or quiet afternoons Upper-level private apartment with full bath and kitchenette—ideal for extended guest stays Built-in bunk room (third bedroom) with its own bath—a magical space for kids to play, laugh, and (hopefully) sleep. Off the bunk rooms is a loft that can double as an office or an additional sleeping area. The oversized two-car garage easily accommodates vehicles, outdoor gear, and storage needs. Outside, the beautifully landscaped yard is maintained to perfection, creating a setting as stunning as the home itself. This house is everything you think it is: beautiful, impeccably maintained, and ready for its next chapter. Welcome home.
