Description

"Precious" is the word to describe this delightfully whimsical cottage in Highlands' charming Mirror Lake community. The home and yard present like a fairy tale. Remember romantic Rosehill Cottage in the movie "The Holiday"? Well like Rosehill, this cottage is an enchanting escape from life's stresses. Beautifully designed inside and out, you can wake up in the owners' bedroom on the main, walk past a well-appointed kitchen, through the vaulted family room and out to its decks & porches. Your outside..."Precious" is the word to describe this delightfully whimsical cottage in Highlands' charming Mirror Lake community. The home and yard present like a fairy tale. Remember romantic Rosehill Cottage in the movie "The Holiday"? Well like Rosehill, this cottage is an enchanting escape from life's stresses. Beautifully designed inside and out, you can wake up in the owners' bedroom on the main, walk past a well-appointed kitchen, through the vaulted family room and out to its decks & porches. Your outside living experience is highlighted by your own magical stream bubbling beneath your feet as it flows from the backyard to the front rippling directly under the large deck built for entertaining! There is no better place to read a book or hold an outside dinner party under garden lights and Highlands' cool summer night sky. Residing over 3,700 feet above sea level, enjoy summer seasons when the high temperatures average in the 70s. In the winter, marvel at the quiet of occasional snowfalls while sitting by a fire. Downtown Highlands' quaint boutique shops (voted best small-town shopping by USA Today in 2019) and fine cuisine restaurants are less than 1 mile away! Mirror Lake, with its canoeing and fishing opportunities, is even closer. Take time to meander through local evergreen-shaded streets, past flower gardens, mossy hills, ponds, and Rhododendron blooms. Each season of the year brings its own look and feel, both to the home and the natural surroundings. Now is the time to acquire your own little piece of heaven!
