Nestled within the prestigious Cullasaja Club, this mountain retreat blends timeless craftsmanship with refined comfort, set amid a serene, wooded backdrop just minutes from the heart of Highlands. Thoughtfully designed to capture light, space, and mountain ambiance, the home welcomes you with soaring vaulted ceilings, exposed wood beams, and a dramatic stone fireplace anchoring the great room.

The open-concept living and dining areas flow seamlessly into a well-appointed kitchen featuring stainless steel appliances, classic cabinetry, and generous counter space—ideal for both everyday living and entertaining. Walls of windows and French doors invite the outdoors in, opening to expansive decks that overlook the surrounding forest and create the perfect setting for morning coffee or evening gatherings.
