About this House

Welcome to your mountain Treehouse retreat, offering both seclusion and convenience. A
classic Highlands 2-bedroom, 2-bath cottage, perfectly tucked away in nature yet just 2 minutes
from town the historic Highlands Country Club and 7 min. from the shops, restaurants and
varied activities of Highlands center.
Nestled in a large grove of Rhododendron under a canopy of mature Eastern White Pine, this
home requires no lawn maintenance. Inside, an open living room & dining room space flows
into the kitchen, with both areas opening onto a spacious back deck & an immediate
connection to nature and relaxation. Large, energy-efficient windows allow an abundance of
natural light and nature’s beauty to continue into the home. The rear of the .56 acre/1470 s.f.
property borders Glen Falls Rd (1 mi.) providing access to beautiful Glen Falls and its popular,
well-marked, pet-friendly hiking trail. Perfect for exploring nature with friends and family. 

The primary bedroom and bath are located on the main floor, while the second bedroom and
bath upstairs offer privacy for guests. Whether you’re looking for a peaceful Highlands retreat,
retirement home or a smart investment, this property is a rare find. While it boasts a Highlands
address, it’s outside the town’s rental restrictions, allowing you the freedom to rent it by the
day, week, or month—a major advantage for short-term rental income. And, no HOA! This is

    "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."
