Perfect Highlands Location

This was a comfortable 3BR/3BA house within easy walking distance of everything on Main Street. It would be ideal for 1 or 2 couples or a small family. The kitchen prep area is very small, but well-stocked with everything one needs. The wood-burning fireplace added to the coziness during the cool fall weather.
