Description

Celebrating the importance of nature with the power of natural light, strength of materials, and the impact of details, this home nests on top of the mountain with an amazing view of Whiteside Mountain, Terrapin Mountain, Black Rock Mountain and a sixty-mile view beyond! The current owners enthusiastically completely remodeled this home down to the studs. The sense of arrival greets you with impressive stone columns and a large glass front door. As you enter through the foyer, you arrive at the large open living space with a beautiful new kitchen with custom cabinets and top of the line appliances. A large pantry and laundry room are easily accessible off the kitchen. Accented with interesting, modern light fixtures, the large room has nano doors opening to the large, covered deck with the outdoor fireplace with two open decks on each side outside the primary bedroom and a guest suite. The primary suite is on one wing of the home with a spacious walk-in closet, double sinks, freestanding tub and large shower. The other wing of the home is for your guests with two large suites and a powder room. The attached garage is large enough for two cars and a golf cart. Walking distance to all of the amenities of Cullasaja Club, you can quickly join classes at the fitness center, take a swim in the pool, practice your croquet, golf or tennis with a delicious meal at the clubhouse to round out your active day. Cullasaja Club is conveniently located between Highlands and Cashiers with a ten minute drive in either direction.

    "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. "

    "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."

  • 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?"

    "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."
