Description

A lovely home and detached guest house sit on 1.60 acres situated just off Bowery Road in the peaceful Sagee Mountain neighborhood. The property is perched above moss covered rocks and enchanting stone pathways that meander through old growth Rhododendron and mature hardwood trees. This mostly one level home with wide plank wood flooring is brimming with classic old Highlands charm. The main home is filled with an abundance of light and has a gracious living room with a cathedral ceiling and a wall of windows that surround the beautiful stone fireplace. The upscale, detached guest house is a delight for friends and family when visiting. The spacious main house kitchen, with breakfast area, has plenty of pantry space and features a beautiful kitchen island. All three bedrooms in the main house open up to the back patio gardens and have ensuite bathrooms. The screened porch and outdoor wood burning fireplace have a perfect view of the hillside garden. The garden has a natural stone feature with steps leading to a beautiful plot of vegetable and flower beds. There is also a fenced dog run that is perfect for your four legged friend. This property is conveniently situated across the street from walking trails within the 17.34 acres owned by the Highlands Land Trust. The neighborhood roads are mostly flat and easy to walk. Located a short distance from the Highlands Biological Station, the shops and restaurants along Main Street, the Performing Arts Center, and The Bascom, a Center for Visual Arts.

    "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."
