This home was the show house many years ago and has been in the care of one owner all these years. The great room has rustic wood floors and a floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace and opens seamlessly to the covered, screened porch where many evenings have been spent with friends in front of the stone fireplace. The owners have created a beautiful water feature on the side of the home to lull your senses. On the main level is an oversized kitchen with a generous island and large eating area in front of a bank of windows. The master on the main boasts "his and her" baths plus "his and her" closets. Upstairs there are three beautiful bedrooms with vaulted ceilings and private baths - just what everyone wants for their family and friends. The terrace level has a one-car garage, two additional guest rooms with baths, a media area and a game room. This cottage is located on the Atlanta side of Highlands with easy year-round access.
