Description

Located in the prestigious Big Bear Pen area In-town in Highlands, this stately yet elegant home was built with attention to every detail. Solid construction is prevalent throughout and notable accents, such as custom light fixtures and sinks, abound in every direction. From the moment you enter the home you are filled with a sense of grandeur. Custom mill work, from the solid front door to the tongue and groove ceilings to the wooden accent beams to the built-in cabinetry and seating areas will leave you in awe. A substantial kitchen features high end appliances, plenty of cabinetry and plenty of space for friends and family to gather and enjoy each other while entertaining. A variety of dining area options will let you choose your in-home meal venue: simple meals at the chef's table in the kitchen, casual meals while enjoying the foliage beyond on the screened porch or formal and traditional meals while listening to relaxing music through the in house speaker system in the elegant formal dining room, perhaps. Afterwards, enjoy settling in by a roaring fire in the massive stone fireplace in the great room or go back out on the porch to savor a sky full of stars. Thoughtfully planned and designed, you will not be disappointed. The master on main suite is private and laundry is conveniently located off of the kitchen area, so there are no stairs over which to fret. Generously sized guest bedrooms and baths upstairs provide a cozy and private area for company and a 2 car garage with a covered walkway to the home provide shelter during inclement weather. There is wine storage on the lower level and the crawl space was recently encapsulated. Hiking trails are just a few short minutes away and downtown Highlands is a walkable distance for those wishing to meander back and forth from town. Come be enthralled by this beautiful home and see why so many people are escaping the stresses of big city life for the calmer lifestyle offered in our special little town.

    "It’s beautiful and appears to be a great place to raise a family. I used to come here as a child back in the 70’s with my parents and it’s still as I remember it. Quaint and beautiful. "
  • Karie.mcclure
    "not sure only a renter at this point but love how safe And low key it is .. great weather as well nice people "
  • Pam
    "Great small town. Elevation 4000 feet plus. Friendly residents. Lots to do for a small town. A little pricy, but worth it. Great hiking and waterfalls galore. Dog friendly neighborhood and town."
  • Christine B.
    "It's a very friendly community. When the tourists come to town for the season it gets overcrowded but some non locals are really friendly. "
  • Bill B.
    "I live here and love the weather, hiking trails, water falls, and the National Forest. 4,118 feet elevation provides cool weather in the summer."
  • Susan C.
    "What a beautiful place to live ... there is nothing as peaceful or beautiful as the mountains and this lovely, quaint town."
  • Rick C.
    "There's no Wal-Mart or fast food joints. Life in the mountains has an easier pace. You are removed from the city, but that's why we live here, to get away from it all. There is a world class spa, fine dining on smaller scale, exquisite shops. Think Breckinridge, without the skiing.Beautiful mountains, hiking, mountain biking, floral life, live music, plays, wineries, what more do you want?"
  • carolrosen
    "Great area, lovely home, easy comfortable living"
  • John D.
    "A great place to spend the summer, and within walking distance to town."
  • Nadine P.
    "A wonderful community with a year round caretaker, pool, tennis courts and swimming pool plus it is gated. Certainly not a necessity in Highlands! I would recommend King Mtn to anyone looking for lush foliage, fantastic views and wonderful amenities."
  • Nadine P.
    "I have lived in Highlands, NC for 7 years and still upon returning from out of town get a peacefulness when I hit Main St or the Gorge Rd from Franklin. Prettiest place anywhere...you must visit!"
  • Dorothy S.
    "You will find that people are extremely friendly. We have four mild seasons. Winter is wonderful. Nothing is better than curling up with a book in front of a crackling fire."
