About This Lot
Discover a private mountain retreat with a stunning waterfall as its natural centerpiece. This extraordinary estate lot in Sassafras Ridge, a private gated community, offers the rare opportunity to disconnect and immerse in nature. Panoramic mountain views set the backdrop for a property unlike any other, complete with a private waterfall easily accessible near the homesite. The tranquil rush of water offers a soothing soundtrack and a captivating visual focal point, creating a true sanctuary in the heart of the Plateau. Design and build a generational retreat with the architect and builder of your choice, a place where countless memories will unfold. Begin mornings with yoga by the waterfall and a fresh cup of coffee, then venture out to explore the natural wonders and endless activities across the Highlands-Cashiers Plateau. As evening settles in, return home to share stories of the day while surrounded by the sounds of nature, easing the curtain on another remarkable day.
This property is perfectly situated in the heart of Sapphire Valley and offers both privacy and convenience. Downtown Cashiers is just minutes away, and the homesite is a golf cart ride from the prestigious Country Club of Sapphire Valley, where membership is by invitation only.
This is more than a homesite, it is an invitation to live in harmony with nature, with the luxury of privacy and proximity to the best of the Plateau lifestyle.
