About This Home

As of August 2017

This fabulous mountain home "The Foxhole" with dramatic cathedral ceilings and walls of glass in the great room will welcome you the minute you step in. Wonderful architectural features are found through out the home. Enjoy the mountain breeze or entertain guests on the large covered porch and listen to the gentle sounds of the stream. The two tiered roof lines on the over-sized deck adds an interesting architectural touch. Surrounding the deck the Mountain laurel are blooming and the many rhododendron are ready to pop. If family and friends are not gathered on the deck, the floor to ceiling stone wood burning fireplace is their gathering spot. The private more intimate screened porch has a wood burning fireplace to enjoy that glass of wine or just nestle in with a good book. This is a great home for a couple as everything you need is on one level. If you need the space,one can use the loft area. There are four in suite bedrooms in the home - two on the main level and two in the loft. The second bedroom in the loft has two queens or it could be a bunk room. The Master is on the main and as well as the second guest room and bath. It is currently being used as an office. The 2 guest suites and den/office up stairs over look the loft to the great room below. Lots of storage, several cedar lined closets. Over sized 2 car garage. Gated with security. This is in a great location between Cashiers and Highlands. The home is located in Highlands Falls Country Club but membership is not required to enjoy living in this gated community. Should one wish to join there are numerous amenities to be enjoyed. Golf, tennis, croquet, hiking, fishing, pool, and numerous interest groups create a very diversified set of family and friends that live and enjoy the area.This home is what so many folks are looking for....just the right size with everything you need on one level and an over sized garage. Put this home on your list to see. You will be glad that you did.
