About This Home

As of July 2021

An absolute stunner of a home in a spectacular setting in one of Highlands' most desirable locations! Immaculate and thoughtfully designed, this charming home features an open living room/dining area with vaulted ceilings; sandstone-facing fireplace (wood-burning); hand-scraped, engineered hickory flooring; screened porch to enjoy the sounds of rushing Mill Creek; walk-in-closet in the bedroom; office area/bonus room; spacious laundry room; quartz countertops; cozy firepit next to the creek; and pine tongue-in-groove in the ceilings. Baseboard heat is an efficient, hydronic (radiant) system. The fireplace uses outside air to feed the fire (when the fan is on, it pressurizes the house so that there is no cold outside air intrusion if glass doors are closed). With doors open, it runs like a typical fireplace. House exterior painted six months ago. The cabinet in the hallway was salvaged from the old home that used to stand on the property. Window blinds are lined, providing additional insulation. House is 90%+ trusses (roof and floor). Old DirecTV dish (Sellers no longer use). Town internet dish is located at the corner of the storage room. All furniture, decorative accessories, art, window treatments, and some kitchenware, silverware, pots/pan, glasses, grill, and bakeware convey with the sale of the real property. Grill sits on a wood platform under the stairs that can be pulled out to use & pushed back to stow. The mattress is a Tempur-Pedic. There is a door in the back of the wood box for loading firewood from the outside. House located inside the flood plain. Main level of home is constructed three feet above 100-year flood line (the storage room and carport are not). Engineer drawings for pier foundation in listing docs.
