About This Home

As of August 2025

Welcome to a rare jewel in the prestigious Old Edwards Club at Highlands Cove—a home where Palm Beach sophistication dances with Blue Ridge serenity. From the moment you step inside, you'll be swept away by panoramic mountain views that serve as the perfect backdrop to this exquisitely designed retreat. Every inch of this home exudes luxury, from the glistening crystal light fixtures that catch the sunlight like fine jewelry, to the expansive chef’s kitchen outfitted with top-of-the-line Wolf and Cove appliances, a custom oversized island with waterfall edge, and elegant tiling and finishes fit for entertaining royalty. The main-level primary suite is a sanctuary unto itself, featuring a spacious designer bathroom and generous his-and-her closets that feel more like private dressing rooms than closets. Just steps away, an enclosed porch with a floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace invites you to unwind in style, no matter the season. Upstairs, two private guest suites anchor a central sitting area—perfect for guests or cozy conversations. Downstairs, a well-appointed gym and office space make it easy to stay fit and focused, even in the mountains. Need room for company? The spacious two-car garage includes a chic apartment with kitchenette above, offering privacy and comfort for guests who appreciate their own space. Sophisticated yet inviting, this home is the ultimate blend of high-end design and elevated mountain living. A truly rare opportunity to enjoy the best of both worlds—Palm Beach polish with Highlands charm. Sold beautifully furnished with a few exceptions to the sale.
