The kitchen and adjacent area include an extra-large walk-in pantry, a utility room, two refrigerators, and a commercial ice machine. As you enter the main cottage, you're greeted by a spacious formal living and dining room that leads into additional living and dining spaces, perfect for cocktail parties or hosting dinners at home. Down a short hallway, you will find the powder room and the entrance to the primary suite. It boasts a large walk-in closet and a spacious primary bathroom. Three private, individual-bedroom ensuites are in the detached guest quarters. This home has an updated HVAC system, a partial generator, and a fully encapsulated crawlspace, adding unseen value to this well-maintained family retreat. The exterior of this home features a no-step entry into the house from a circular driveway with an additional upper parking area for overflow parking and a single-vehicle garage. There is an extra-large deck that overlooks the historic 13th hole of HCC and lush gardens nestled throughout the property. This property also boasts a private paved cart access to the golf course. The 1.19-acre combined parcels are the perfect private golf course-facing mountain retreat for small or large family gatherings and weekends away from the city. 554 Moorewood Road is located minutes from downtown Highlands, where you will find award-winning restaurants and boutique shops and the charm of one of the best small mountain towns. In August 2023, Highlands was voted the Best Small Mountain Town in the US by Travel + Leisure.
