A wood-burning stone fireplace with a raised hearth anchors...A classic High Hampton cottage in one of the community's original and most convenient locations, minutes from the clubhouse and less than five minutes from the stoplight in Cashiers. A gravel drive winds through rhododendron and tall hardwoods to 1.93 acres, with a wide, level lawn around the home and woods for privacy. Inside, knotty pine walls, wood floors, and a beamed tongue-and-groove ceiling with skylights give the great room its warmth. A wood-burning stone fireplace with a raised hearth anchors the living and dining areas, and French doors open to a large deck overlooking the yard. The kitchen keeps the cottage's original character, with knotty pine cabinetry, butcher-block counters, a large pantry cabinet, and a door out to the covered carport. The single-level split plan puts the primary bedroom and its private bath on one side. The two guest bedrooms are on the other and share a connecting bath. Windows throughout look out into the forest. There's room to add a guest home, or to build your primary residence and keep this cottage as a guesthouse. Purchase makes the buyer eligible for High Hampton membership, with golf, racquet sports, outdoor recreation, dining, and a full calendar of member events in one of Cashiers' most lasting club communities.
