About This Home

As of October 2025

“Top of the Knob” - This splendid residence eagerly awaiting your presence and ready for your personal touch. Situated conveniently just a short stroll from Main Street, the home offers one-level living and a westwardly view. Inside, you'll find two, large master en suites and a spacious living room seamlessly connected to the kitchen - with a huge stone fireplace backing up to both. Home was converted to a 2 bedroom a number of years ago but easily returned to a 3 bdrm. - as originally built. The exterior features an expansive wraparound sun deck, including a screened and covered portion in the middle. The low-maintenance yard is adorned with plantings and native shrubs. Nestled at the very top of sought-after Holt Knob area, this residence provides one of the most coveted addresses within the city limits, offering easy access to all that Highlands has to offer. With numerous amenities within walking distance, it's no surprise that this location is always in high demand. Winter view is great and could be improved with additional trimming.
