Stone, Glass and Splendor

Written By: Wiley Sloan | Issue: 2017/03 - March

Traverse gently rolling hills through lush greenery as you climb skyward to this beautiful home, resting sublimely on one of the highest points of Highlands Country Club.  

Throughout the home, you’ll enjoy stunning views of Whiteside, Shortoff, and Cowee Mountains and the mesmerizing vistas beyond. Relax and unwind as the gentle cooling breezes sing through the trees.  Built by renowned Highlands contractor Schmitt Builders and renovated by Potts Construction, this home embodies quality craftsmanship
and distinctive style.  

Revel in the timeless style − large enough for family and friends, but comfy and cozy when it is just the two of you.  Enjoy an open floor plan punctuated with an artist’s creative eye as you wile away your days in the mountains.  Throughout the year, the home’s character evolves with the seasons.  Follow the awakening of Spring or the quiet solitude of Summer from one of the wide porches that surround the home.   As the chill of Fall and Winter push you inside, enjoy eye-catching views through the walls of glass in almost every room.…   

The u-shaped floor plan is great for everyone.  You can enjoy the privacy of the Owner’s Suite as much as your family or guests will enjoy their own digs in the sumptuous guest wing located across the Great Room.  The tantalizing aromas of morning coffee will beckon to everyone to gather around the dining table or at one end of the large kitchen island.  Walls of cabinets host top-of-the-line appliances.    Artfully designed door fronts include a combination of frosted glass and striated panels.  A walk-in Pantry provides storage aplenty for food and cooking paraphernalia.  Meander through large French doors to enjoy the morning sunrise on the large porch with its Outdoor Kitchen, covered Dining Alcove, and large Seating Area.    

A wall of windows frames distant mountain tops as you arise from slumber.  Enjoy a gentle fire on cool mornings.  The Master Bath with its dual vanities, soaking tub, and dual-head shower pampers you in style.  A walk-in closet fit for a Hollywood star awaits your wardrobe.  In the guest wing of the house is a tantalizing Morning Room resplendent with sky high walls of glass and a stone floor.  Two over-sized Guest Suites each with en-suite baths and private porches may cause you to wonder if your guests will ever go home.     

Ascend the wide staircase to the second floor.  Light from the scads of windows permeates the Gallery Office/Library/TV/Artist’s Studio.  Here, too, you’ll find a fourth Bedroom Suite, complete with an unforgettable view.  

Don’t let this home get away.  Close proximity to downtown Highlands in Highlands Country Club, high elevation, open floor plan, style, and charm.  Is there anything more that you can want?  Terry Potts of Country Club Properties is awaiting your call.  Call him at (828) 421-3417 or visit ccphighlandsnc.com for this and other premier properties.
