Description

Have you ever fantasized about having your own cozy cabin in the woods that you could escape to, any time you wanted? Built in 1925 by Highlands native and renowned builder Joe Webb, this two bedroom, two bath cabin could easily make that dream come true! Nestled amongst the native rhododendrons, laurel, and trees, and made from the same materials, the cabin blends beautifully into nature. A covered screen porch with intricate rhododendron and laurel branches enriching the railings welcomes you home. Inside, you will find a great room with a wood-burning, rough stone fireplace that has a log mantle. A variety of wood from local trees cover the floors, walls, and ceilings. The kitchen has contemporary stainless steel appliances, yet still fits in with the hand-crafted feel of the home. There is a stacked clothes washer and dryer in the corner, making laundry day convenient for multitasking. The primary bedroom has an en-suite bathroom with oil-rubbed bronze finishes, as well as a bathtub that has unique stone accents surrounding it. The guest bath has similar finishes but boasts a tub surrounded by modern tile. An open back deck surrounded by woods, laurel, and rhododendrons invites you to relax at the end of the day. The cabin is offered fully furnished, with a mix of comfortable Arts & Crafts and modern rustic furnishings that are appropriate to the period and style. The quality of Joe Webb's imaginatively conceived and beautifully executed houses in the mountains of western North Carolina make his work outstanding and is distinguished by the creative use of local materials. Don't miss your chance to own a piece of Highlands history! The current owners have used this home as a vacation rental; however, there is uncertainty with in-town properties regarding vacation rentals at this time.
