About This Home
The entire home seems to pause, allowing the view to make its introduction. From the moment the front door opens, legendary Whiteside Mountain commands the horizon beyond soaring walls of glass, while the Cashiers Valley quietly reveals itself between the surrounding ridges, creating a panorama that changes beautifully with the light throughout the day. Gracefully positioned within Highlands Falls Country Club, this extraordinary mountain residence was designed to embrace the landscape rather than compete with it. Designed by Jeff Weller of Summit Architecture and masterfully built by Brett Murphy of Arrowood Construction in 2025, the home reflects an unwavering commitment to craftsmanship. Every room reveals another thoughtful detail, from curated lighting and exceptional millwork to windows positioned to celebrate the landscape rather than simply capture it. The newly reimagined kitchen features rich walnut cabinetry, an oversized gathering island, professional appliances, a stainless-steel backsplash with pot filler, and flows naturally into a morning room that may become your favorite place in the home. Positioned between the kitchen and the mountain beyond, it offers the perfect setting for lingering over coffee, a good book, and the ever-changing light across Whiteside. Two exceptional primary suites provide remarkable flexibility, each offering spa-inspired baths with heated floors, exquisite stone and tile, beautifully crafted cabinetry, self-drying steam showers, generous dressing rooms, and breathtaking mountain views. The main-level suite includes a private office, while the upper-level suite features a gracious sitting room. Two additional guest suites welcome family and friends with the same level of comfort found throughout the home. Beautifully landscaped herb, vegetable, and flower gardens blend naturally into the mountainside, while premium composite slate roofing, low-maintenance siding, and exceptional craftsmanship reflect the home's enduring quality. Designed with remarkable restraint and built to be treasured for generations, this is more than an exceptional mountain residence. It is one of those rare homes where architecture, craftsmanship, and the landscape exist in perfect harmony.
