Description

The second offering at 1875 is underway on Lot 5, a beautifully crafted multi-textured stone flanked modern 4,197 square foot residence that artfully blends rustic character with refined mountain elegance. Masterful craftmanship, care and meticulous detailing abound throughout, incorporating the architectural landscape and natural surroundings. Hand-hewn, rough-sawn reclaimed beams frame the entry to the grand living room, where a trussed ceiling and a dramatic wall of custom floor-to-ceiling windows draw the surrounding natural beauty indoors. A striking floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace anchors the space, creating a warm and inviting focal point. The thoughtfully designed floor plan centers around an entertaining chef’s kitchen and dining area, creating an ideal gathering space for family and friends. A 60” Wolf Dual Fuel Oven/Range with massive hood above will anchor the kitchen with a built-in Sub-Zero refrigerator/freezer and built-in Cove dishwasher that will seamlessly flow with the kitchen cabinetry. A dedicated scullery and grilling porch will enhance both everyday living and entertaining and the covered stone terrace with its own fireplace will provide year-round outdoor enjoyment. Designed for both comfort and effortless privacy, the home features a main-level primary suite, tucked away for a calm space, complete with a rough-sawn beamed ceiling and a lavishly tiled bath will feature heated floors, free-standing soaking tub and an expansive walk-in closet. Upstairs, spacious guest accommodations include three additional bedrooms, two bathrooms, a loft retreat for relaxation or office, and a versatile bonus room for reading, media, or recreation. Additional highlights include a two-car garage for convenience during inclement weather and beautifully landscaped grounds with native plantings and sculptural boulder accents. Privately gated and tucked into a serene setting, the property is just minutes from vibrant downtown Highlands and is close to Highlands Country Club, offering an exceptional balance of privacy, natural beauty, and convenience. Architectural plans and finishes are subject to changes at the builder's discretion prior to completion. Estimated Completion Date June 2026.

    "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."
