A rare 2-home Highlands retreat just 4 minutes from Main Street, this exceptional offering was originally built by renowned local craftsman Ralph Thomas and thoughtfully updated for modern mountain living. Privately set among the trees near the Mirror Lake area, the property spans approximately one acre across two lots and offers an uncommon blend of craftsmanship, flexibility, privacy, recreational access, and income-producing potential. Together, the residences provide approximately 4,500 square feet of interior living space, five bedrooms, five full baths, multiple flexible guest rooms and office spaces, two laundry/utility areas, four full-size refrigerators, and abundant indoor-outdoor living space. More than 2,000 square feet of decking includes a 400-square-foot cathedral-style screened porch, permanent seating areas, two fire pits, an outdoor stove, and peaceful spaces for gathering, dining, or relaxing beneath the tree canopy. The setting is both private and convenient, with winter mountain views, summer forest-canopy vistas, and more than 130 trees planted along the perimeter in 2020 to enhance the secluded feel. A private paved driveway provides access within a quiet enclave adjoining Mirror Lake, while nearby gravel roads, waterfalls, streams, hiking trails, Skyline Lodge, and downtown Highlands place the best of the Plateau close at hand. The primary residence underwent a comprehensive renovation in 2020 while preserving its original Adirondack camp character. Original wormy chestnut cabinetry and wood flooring remain, complemented by Bosch and Liebherr appliances, updated baths, a screened outdoor living area with electric screens, a metal roof, and replacement windows and doors throughout. Additional features include two wood-burning fireplaces, a gas river-rock fireplace, two garages with space for three vehicles, workshop areas, guest parking, high-speed internet service with fiber-optic availability, and a generator serving both homes. The second residence has been upgraded to strengthen rental appeal and has generated up to $60,000 annually in long & short-term rental income. Located outside the Town of Highlands limits, the property benefits from the absence of municipal rental restrictions, offering flexibility for personal use, guest accommodations, or investment income. With two distinct homes, refined updates, original craftsmanship, outdoor living, and proven rental performance, this is a truly distinctive Highlands property.

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.
