About This Home
Escape to mountain living at its finest in Apple Mountain, ideally situated just 10 minutes between downtown Highlands and Cashiers. Spanning 3,614 square feet all on one level, this property combines privacy, luxury, and family-friendly comfort. Set on a private 1.01 acre lot, this property directly borders a shared easement with the prestigious Cullasaja Club. Enjoy deeded access to Lake Ravenel for kayaking, canoeing, and fishing via a scenic pathway directly from your yard. Inside, a light-filled open layout centers around an expansive living room with a towering stone fireplace and vaulted, beamed ceilings. The well-designed kitchen features two refrigerators, a walk-in pantry, an expansive island, and a pass-through to the screened porch. Accommodations include a primary suite with dual custom closets and a spa bath, two generous-sized guest bedrooms, a private office, and a flexible bonus space. This home offers a thoughtful layout ideal for family living and entertaining guests. The outdoor haven features a screened porch, open deck, fire pit, putting green, zip line, and a sheltered dog run. Hobbyists and car enthusiasts will appreciate the four-car garage capacity, split between a two-car attached garage and a separate two-car detached garage with workshop space.
