About This Home

Pass through the gates and wind up to the top of Norton Overlook to discover an original homestead, set back from the road within a private sanctuary. From the front porch, the sights and sounds of nature create a serene backdrop for quiet moments to unwind.
Evenings may be spent gathered around the outdoor firepit or inside beside the cozy wood-burning stove set in a stunning stone fireplace. The spacious main level is designed for both comfort and functionality, offering a spacious kitchen, den, dining room, great room, office, laundry area, and a generous primary bedroom, all thoughtfully arranged with excellent flow.
Upstairs are two oversized bedrooms, while the lower level expands the living space with an additional bedroom, full bathroom, potential for a kitchenette, and two expansive bonus rooms, perfect for flexible use or recreation areas.
A large detached garage with a workshop provides space for artistic pursuits, woodworking, or other hobbies, while ample storage throughout the home ensures everyday practicality.
Winter reveals panoramic mountain views, with the potential for further enhancement through strategic tree trimming. Conveniently located near Cashiers, Highlands, and Lake Glenville, this residence combines privacy, comfort, and the best of mountain living.
With its versatile spaces and timeless mountain character, this residence offers both a peaceful retreat and a setting for lasting memories.
