Description

Welcome to 764 Hardscrabble Ridge Road -tucked into one of Highlands’ most prestigious neighborhoods, this stunning home offers the best of mountain living with style, comfort, and a serious wow factor. Built by Heritage Log Homes, every inch of this residence reflects thoughtful design and expert craftsmanship. Step inside the grand great room and you’re immediately struck by the soaring 30-foot ceiling, a dramatic stone fireplace, and sweeping views of Whiteside Mountain. It’s a space that feels both impressive and inviting. The open-concept kitchen and dining room make hosting a breeze. Slide open the doors to the spacious covered porch and summer kitchen - perfect for entertaining or just enjoying the cool mountain air and unforgettable scenery. The primary suite is a true escape, complete with its own fireplace and extra-large his-and-hers closets. Upstairs, your guests will feel like they’ve checked into a luxury lodge. Each of the three guest suites includes its own private balcony, and a large loft area offers extra space for work, relaxation, or play. Downstairs, there’s a special treat for wine lovers: a one-of-a-kind wine cellar built around a natural granite formation that keeps everything at the ideal temperature and humidity. Outside, the grounds are just as impressive. Picture yourself unwinding by the koi pond, enjoying a picnic, or serving up wood-fired pizza from your custom stone oven. There’s also a two-car garage with a fully outfitted guest suite above - kitchen, bath, and all—so friends and family can visit with total independence. Just a short drive from the heart of Highlands, this home is more than a place to live - it’s a mountain lifestyle at its finest. Peaceful, beautiful, and built for both quiet moments and unforgettable gatherings.
