A rare combination of end-of-road privacy, long-range mountain views, and 33.53+/- unrestricted acres, this Highlands-area log cabin offers the kind of usable mountain land that is increasingly difficult to find. Surrounded on two sides by USFS land, the property feels quiet and protected, with a private pond, ample parking, a cleared trail across Flat Mountain Rd, and multiple potential homesites where selective tree limbing or clearing could open additional view opportunities. The 3-bedroom, 2-bath log cabin captures the character buyers seek in a true mountain retreat while offering the comfort and function needed for everyday use. Inside, warm wood walls, soaring ceilings, expansive windows, and layered natural textures create a relaxed, collected atmosphere. The great room is a dramatic yet welcoming gathering space, equally suited for intimate evenings or easy entertaining, with direct flow to a large deck wrapping three sides of the home. One side is covered and includes a porch swing, creating a quiet place to take in the ridgelines. The main level includes two guest bedrooms, a shared full bath, a laundry room, and an open kitchen with stainless steel appliances. Upstairs, the primary suite offers a brand-new shower, walk-in closet, three attic access points for generous storage, and a small loft office area just outside the suite. The walkout basement adds meaningful flexibility, with a large unfinished area opening to a covered patio and a separate workshop with barn-style exterior doors for bringing equipment and materials in and out with ease. With no HOA and no restrictions, the land invites a wide range of uses: create a private mountain compound, explore additional homesites, enjoy hiking, camping, gardening, hunting, or simply preserve the acreage as a quiet retreat surrounded by nature.

Surrounded on two sides by USFS land, the property feels quiet and protected, with a private pond, ample parking, a cleared trail across Flat Mountain Rd, and multiple potential homesites where selective tree limbing or clearing could open additional view opportunities. The 3-bedroom, 2-bath log cabin captures the character buyers seek in a true mountain retreat while offering the comfort and function needed for everyday use. Inside, warm wood walls, soaring ceilings, expansive windows, and layered natural textures create a relaxed, collected atmosphere. The great room is a dramatic yet welcoming gathering space, equally suited for intimate evenings or easy entertaining, with direct flow to a large deck wrapping three sides of the home. One side is covered and includes a porch swing, creating a quiet place to take in the ridgelines. The main level includes two guest bedrooms, a shared full bath, a laundry room, and an open kitchen with stainless steel appliances. Upstairs, the primary suite offers a brand-new shower, walk-in closet, three attic access points for generous storage, and a small loft office area just outside the suite. The walkout basement adds meaningful flexibility, with a large unfinished area opening to a covered patio and a separate workshop with barn-style exterior doors for bringing equipment and materials in and out with ease. With no HOA and no restrictions, the land invites a wide range of uses: create a private mountain compound, explore additional homesites, enjoy hiking, camping, gardening, hunting, or simply preserve the acreage as a quiet retreat surrounded by nature. The original house remains on the property and could offer renovation potential as a guest house or short-term rental. Approximately 15 minutes to Highlands and 30 minutes to Cashiers, the property offers access to dining, shopping, Saturday Music on Pine, Bear Shadow, Groovin' on the Green, Plein Air events, nearby trails, waterfalls, and the refined mountain lifestyle of the Plateau. Rare acreage with this setting is limited; schedule your private showing soon.

Tucked behind the gates of Wildcat Cliffs Country Club, this fully furnished 4-bedroom, 4 bath, 2 half baths, Craftsman retreat has been completely renovated and professionally redesigned, blending timeless craftsmanship with refined mountain luxury. Ralph Lauren-inspired interiors feel sophisticated yet warm, inviting and perfectly suited to life in Highlands. Understated from the road, the home unfolds into generous living spaces designed for family and friends. The great room features vaulted ceilings, a dramatic stone fireplace, custom wainscoting and walls of glass framing lake and long-range mountain views. A hidden equipment room keeps technology discreetly out of sight. The chef's kitchen offers a 60-inch Wolf range, Bosch dishwasher, custom cabinetry and abundant gathering space. A dedicated bar room reminiscent of “Cheers” flows into the open dining room and expansive covered terrace. With a masonry fireplace, outdoor television, infrared heaters and views over lush perennial gardens, this is true four-season outdoor living. Wrapped in glass, the main-level primary suite features spectacular views, separate his-and-her closets and a spa-inspired bath with a soaking tub overlooking the gardens and mountains. A second main-level en-suite evokes the timeless comfort of a classic mountain retreat. The lower level includes a media room with built-in Murphy beds, wine room and private fitness room. Beyond the interiors, an extraordinary adventure awaits. Pass Mo, the enormous bronze moose, and descend into a private enchanted forest that must be experienced to appreciate its magic. Moss-covered paths with cable railings lead down locust-and-stone steps, past a massive boulder where spring water trickles through unusual moss formations, then by a hidden cave. Follow the sound of moving water to a mountain waterfall meandering through the stones—a setting reminiscent of a national park, yet entirely your own. Hike from home and continue exploring along a trail network extended by neighboring properties. An oversized two-bay golf-cart garage provides room for multiple carts, clubs and gear, with the clubhouse just a short ride away. Wildcat Cliffs offers championship golf, croquet, pickleball, fitness center with indoor pool, fishing ponds and walking trails. Membership is by invitation and subject to approval. This is more than a renovated home; it is a thoughtfully curated Highlands retreat unlike any other.

WHITESIDE MOUNTAIN. YOUR FRONT ROW. Some views you drive past. This one stops you cold. From the moment you arrive on the custom paver drive, gas lanterns flickering at the entry, Whiteside Mountain fills the horizon like it was commissioned for this exact property. It wasn't. But it feels that way. 429 Hardscrabble Ridge Road is a brand-new, spec home on 1.79 private acres, with thoughtfully designed, luxury-appointed living space and an unfinished basement with 14-foot ceilings ready to become whatever you dream: home theater, bunk room, gym, wine cellar, or a combination of all four. Those ceilings aren't an accident. They're an invitation. Inside, every finish reflects a decision to build this right or not at all. The custom slate fireplace anchors the living area, wood or gas, your choice. The kitchen carries a luxury appliance package and connects to a fully equipped prep kitchen for serious entertaining. A wet bar with wine cooler and ice machine means the party never has to pause. Eight Sonos speakers mean it never goes quiet. Wide-plank luxury vinyl flooring runs throughout the main living areas, chosen for its durability in a mountain climate. Four bedrooms, four and a half baths, a loft with its own Samsung TV, a Samsung Frame TV above the fireplace. Above the garage, a versatile bonus room with a full bath adds even more living space: home office, workout room, media room, whatever the next owner needs it to be. Outdoors: a gas firepit, a built-in propane grill system, a professionally designed landscape with a custom water feature, and that mountain, always that mountain, filling the sky above your deck. The main level comes professionally staged with a designer furniture package, available for purchase, negotiated separately. Move in and start living on the main floor, then make the upper level your own. The practical details matter too: Highlands town water with auto shut-off, a 1,000-gallon below grown propane tank, a generator, and fiber internet. A town fire hydrant sits directly across the street. The HOA runs an estimated $2,500 for 2026. The standing seam roof has ice guards. Nothing was an afterthought. New construction with this view of Whiteside Mountain does not come along often. Do not miss your opportunity to call this beautiful property your own.

$2,950,000

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.
