About This Home

Live Among the Treetops

Find serenity in this classic Highlands 2-bedroom, 2-bath cottage, perfectly tucked away in nature yet just minutes from town. Located 2 minutes from the historic Highlands Country Club and 7 minutes from downtown, this charming retreat offers both seclusion and convenience.
Surrounded by mature rhododendron, this home requires no lawn maintenance—just the beauty of the
mountains. Inside, an open living room and dining room space flows into the kitchen, with both spaces opening onto a spacious back deck nestled among the pines and poplars. The back of the property borders Glen Falls Road, a popular and well-marked hiking trail that leads to one of the areas most beautiful waterfalls, Glen Falls—perfect for exploring nature with friends and family.
The primary bedroom and bath are located on the main floor, while the second bedroom and bath
upstairs offer privacy for guests. Whether you’re looking for a peaceful Highlands retreat or a smart investment, this property is a rare find. While it boasts a Highlands address, it’s outside the town’s rental restrictions, allowing you to rent it by the day, week, or month—a major advantage for short-term rental income.
This is your chance to own a true Highlands hideaway—a home that blends mountain charm, prime location, and rental flexibility. Don’t miss out!
