About This Home

As of July 2022

This expanded and completely updated home presents expansive views of Lake Ravenel and the golf course. This light, bright modern one-level home is an entertainment delight while also offering a calming, relaxed and peaceful environment with natural mountain surroundings. The home is located inside the secure gates of prestigious Cullasaja Club halfway between Highlands and Cashiers, North Carolina. The open floor concept is centered around a gourmet kitchen with impressive views of the lake and opening to two entertainment areas. The kitchen features top-of-the line appliances and plenty of counter space. Encompassing practicality with beauty, there are two seating areas in front of two fireplaces with the dining area in between. Both rooms open to an expanded deck which appears to float over the lake. The primary suite opens to a covered deck where you can enjoy views of the lake and a cup of coffee while listening to the birds. The primary bath has the new wet room concept with the tub and the shower in harmony. Two additional guest suites with their own ensuite bathrooms are privately sited on the other wing of the home. Adjacent to the kitchen is a laundry/butlers pantry with steam oven and a second dishwasher. This is a rare opportunity to own a completely updated home that is both luxurious and livable. Offered furnished for immediate enjoyment.
