A Gated community, A lot that makes it easy for you to visualize the beginning of construction of your new mountain home. Makes it easy with these peaceful, natural surroundings. Lot 4 sits within Highlands Point, a gated enclave of eleven homesites just two miles down Dillard Rd from Main Street Highlands. The community is small by design — the kind of place where neighbors build carefully, and the gates mean something. Several custom homes are already standing, and the standard they set is evident. The lot itself is nearly an acre at .96 with generous road frontage and a natural elevation that rises from the street. That uphill grade is more than aesthetic; it is gently sloped and ready to receive the home of your design near the top of the road by the cul-de-sac. The drone confirms what the topography suggests: views of Whiteside Mountain are present at the build site. Selective clearing would open that view fully. How much clearing depends on your architect and where you place the home. The groundwork for moving forward is further along than a raw lot might imply. A water tap and utilities are already at the street. A site evaluation has identified the septic location, and in Macon County, the permit process is refreshingly straightforward — typically a few weeks, provide a site plan, bedroom count, and a fee currently ranging from $200–$800 based on bedroom size can usually be acquired within a few weeks. Details at maconnc.org/environmental-septic.html or by phone at 828-349-2490. A professional excavating company has also reviewed driveway access to the homesite; that information is available upon request. Most raw land asks you to solve problems before you can build anything. This lot has been solving them quietly. The dream you've been holding onto is ready when you are.

Highlands has its share of log cabins, but only a small fraction of those sit in town. 472 Chestnut Street is one. Built well before the 1960s by one of the region's most celebrated cabin builders, the home has been lived in, looked after, and now thoughtfully brought forward without losing what made it remarkable in the first place. The logs have been refreshed and have been made quietly, in service of the original. Inside, the renovation reads through materials rather than gestures. The kitchen is anchored by reclaimed barnwood and an imported Italian 6-burner stove, with a custom built-in refrigerator, deep pantry storage, and finishes chosen to age well. The main ensuite is layered — limestone accent walls, black granite, unlacquered brass fittings, an oversized soaking tub, and a tiled shower featuring hand-made Moroccan tile with a locally crafted trout inlay. Two additional ensuite bedrooms upstairs carry the same considered hand, with imported tile and limestone floors. Throughout the main cabin: hand-hewn beams overhead, tongue-and-groove ceilings, original wide-board white oak floors that have earned their patina, and a hand-laid stone fireplace at the heart of the great room. A covered breezeway leads to a separate guest house with a main-floor living area and an upper bunk room — both finished in the same spirit. In total, the property offers four bedrooms and five baths across both structures. Out back, a firepit sits in a curated garden setting, with Satulah Mountain framed beyond. The practical layer holds up: metal roof, public water and sewer, fiber optic available, and a 0.43-acre level-to-rolling city lot. 472 Chestnut Street is a rare opportunity to own a cabin in one of the most prized in-town settings on the Highlands-Cashiers Plateau.

For those seeking privacy, acreage, and the freedom to create something truly personal in the mountains of Western North Carolina, this 30+/- unrestricted acre tract offers a rare and exciting opportunity. Offered as a portion of a 33.35+/- acre parcel, the property is privately tucked at the end of the road and bordered on two sides by USFS land, giving it a peaceful, protected feel while remaining approximately 15 minutes from Highlands and 30 minutes from Cashiers.

A trail has already been cleared so the property can be toured with ease, allowing you to walk the land, take in the setting, and visit the charming old one-room cabin built when the current owner was a child.
