About this House

Behind the iconic stone pillars of Satulah Mountain, one of Highlands’ most coveted addresses, lies a beautifully reimagined mountain cottage where timeless character meets refined modern living.
Just moments from Main Street, yet tucked away in a peaceful setting, this exceptional property offers the rare luxury of strolling to Highlands’ renowned restaurants, boutiques, galleries, and the private hiker-only trail leading to the summit of Satulah Mountain.
Designed with both elegance and versatility in mind, the home comfortably accommodates up to 10 guests across four distinct sleeping quarters, including a charming sleeping loft for younger guests. Whether hosting extended family for the holidays or welcoming friends for a weekend in the mountains, every space has been thoughtfully designed for comfort and privacy.
The main residence showcases soaring vaulted ceilings accented by architectural antique beams and reclaimed century-old timber, creating a stunning focal point that fills the living spaces with warmth, timeless craftsmanship, and authentic mountain character.
Designer finishes complement the beautifully appointed chef’s kitchen, featuring an impressive European range, and an inviting breakfast bar that naturally becomes the heart of the home. A sunlit office framed by the home’s original windows provides a quiet retreat for work or reading.
Two gracious bedroom suites on the main level each offer private ensuite baths, while a separate guest suite provides an ideal haven for visitors. The walk-out lower level functions almost as a private residence of its own, complete with a family room, kitchenette, full bath, and an expansive bunk room with king, queen, and twin accommodations.
Outdoor living is equally compelling. Enjoy morning coffee with views toward Sunset Rock, gather for evening dinners fresh from the grill, watch children and pets play in the fenced yard, and end each day around the fire pit beneath the cool Highlands sky.
Offered fully furnished (with select exclusions), this turnkey residence presents an increasingly rare opportunity to own a thoughtfully renovated cottage in one of Highlands’ most sought-after neighborhoods. Properties of this caliber—combining walkability, privacy, architectural character, and exceptional guest accommodations—seldom become available. In addition to this home being furnished, the house also comes with a 6 seater Verdi golf cart, your own Mountain Mobile.

    "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."
