A meandering and audible stream runs the length of the property and throughout the flora and pastoral front lawn. The front porch and entry foyer feeds an entirely open Chef's Kitchen with high-end appliances, zinc center island & breakfast bar. Flanking the kitchen are logical gathering spots including a fully-windowed Sunroom and Dining area. Just past these casual areas is the stream-side screened-in porch, perfect for morning coffee, cocktail hour, and flipping through Garden & Gun Magazine. The large-ess family-room with wood-burning fireplace says "gather round" loudly. The main floor layout includes the Primary Bedroom with a beautiful on-suite and plenty of closets. Three large Guest Suites are well separated upstairs ready for family, 3 couples, or your golfing buddies. Robust existing Rental Income make this property Investor appropriate with the best location just outside Highlands Country Club and close to "The Farm" at Old Edwards, The Orchard Room, and tranquil Lake Sequoyah. For those considering full-time residency in the Mountains, this one is calling your name. It's easy to see why such a rare find has you saying "This is what Highlands is all about"! Highlands, NC...come for the weekend, stay for a lifetime!
