About This Home

Tucked away at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, this quintessential mountain cabin offers peaceful seclusion and scenic charm, all within the nature-centric Whisper Lake community. Bordered by 1400 acres of forest and a gentle stream, the setting is serene and private — ideal for those seeking a true retreat in the woods.

This well-maintained home features three spacious bedrooms, one on each level, and is being offered furnished with minimal exclusions, making it move-in ready. With three full bathrooms and a convenient half bathroom, the layout offers both comfort and flexibility for guests.

Enjoy nature from the comfort of expansive porches or through large windows that bring the outdoors in. The kitchen is open and functional — perfect for both daily use and entertaining. Providing opportunities for sipping coffee while listening to the rain in the trees or enjoying dinner with friends as the stream trickles nearby, this home captures the essence of mountain living.

Whisper Lake is a private community located between Cashiers and Sapphire. A scenic drive along Highway 64 and across the Horsepasture River leads to this rustic enclave, centered around a quiet, private lake where residents enjoy swimming, fishing, canoeing, kayaking, and electric boating. Community services include paved roads, deeded water access, a private dock, a picnic area, and racks for canoes and kayaks. The community also enjoys an active social calendar with regular events such as gatherings at the lake, canoe outings, luncheons, a book club, monthly movie nights, and more.

Sapphire Valley Master Association membership grants access to extensive resort amenities, including the 55-acre Fairfield Lake and beach, one heated indoor and three outdoor pools, a fitness center and spa, trails, mini-golf, picnic areas, playgrounds, gem mining, and a recreation center. Optional amenities include Red Bird Golf Course, Fairfield Tennis Facility, and seasonal skiing and tubing, all available at reduced homeowner rates.

Don’t miss this fantastic opportunity to own a fully furnished, turn-key cabin in one of the Plateau’s most vibrant communities. Conveniently located just minutes from the shopping, dining, and attractions of Cashiers and Sapphire, and within easy reach of Highlands, Glenville, and Lake Toxaway, this home provides the perfect gateway to all the adventures and tranquility the Western North Carolina mountains have to offer.
