A Southern Living Show House

Written By: Wiley Sloan | Issue: 2016/11 - November

Perched high above the Old Edwards Club at Highlands Cove is a stunning Arts and Crafts-style estate featured as a Southern Living Showhouse.  At 4500 feet, the mesmerizing panoramic views overlook the Tom Jackson–designed golf course to the distant mountain vistas.  

Enjoy relaxed entertaining while pampering family and friends in utmost comfort.  The carefully designed floor plan optimizes every square foot.  Enjoy eye-catching panoramic vistas from most every room.  The expansive decks built of Brazilian hardwood offer durability and lasting beauty.

Stone accents meld with cedar shake shingles to dress the entrance in sophisticated mountain style.  The beautifully landscaped front yard provides a level entry to the home’s light-filled foyer.  The formal Living Room is dressed to impress – imagine your favorite artwork above the grand stone fireplace.  Evenings are especially alluring as the light from the magnificent chandelier cascades down from the two-story ceilings.  The adjoining Dining Room flows into a well-appointed Chef’s Kitchen with custom cabinetry and a professional Thermador range.  The large limestone island offers generous seating with space for serving.  Enjoy a casual dinner in the four-season Carolina Room with its built-in grill, custom ventilation system, flat screen TV, and cozy fireplace.  Wrought iron and brick complement the covered portico leading to the two car Garage which includes a spacious Suite that is perfect for in-laws, or your au pair, which is currently used as a gym/workout room and includes a full bath.  

Welcome the morning from the first of three Master Suites.  Here on the Main Floor you can savor the fresh air and stunning scenery from your private deck.  No need to fret, your family or guests have two more Master Suites just as stunning.  On the Terrace Level they even have their own spacious Family Room with mini-kitchen and are in close proximity to the outdoor hot tub.  They will especially appreciate this extra privacy.  Those who prefer a bird’s eye view can choose from the two Bedrooms with en-suite Baths located on the Upper Level.  They will enjoy their own intimate Family Room overlooking the living room. 

Take advantage of the cozy warmth of a gently glowing fire in any of the home’s multiple fireplaces. There is space for everyone to enjoy their own special time together in this cozy and comfortable setting.  The light-filled rooms are perfect for a variety of uses, including an artist’s studio, a nursery or for a game room or office.  You will be wowed by the beauty throughout.  Its traditional features include an elegant combination of transitional and classic Southern style, exquisitely decorated with the finest furnishings, accessories, window treatments, rugs and lighting. Offered turnkey and fully furnished, this estate is a rare opportunity for the discerning buyer.
