About this property
Enchanted Cottage - Private, Peaceful, and Only 5 Minutes to Main Street
Welcome to a place of enchantment. This unique cottage, a blend of the Old and the New offers the bliss of the mountains yet all the modern day essentials. Nestled on a ridge in the in-town Mirror Lake Neighborhood, it overlooks 6.5 Acres of wooded privacy from a wonderful 32 foot Living Porch (2/3 covered) with the enjoyment of Humming Birds, Owls, Starry Nights, and Total Peace. A fenced rear yard opens off the porch. It is an easy walk to Mirror Lake and just minutes away from downtown Main Street and all Highlands has to offer.
The Absolutely Divine Master Bedroom with Cathedral Ceilings is separately located upstairs encompassing an incredible vista and wintertime mountain view. We added an "Fabulous New Sky-Deck" right off the Master Bedroom this year. It is the cat's Meow !! The Master Bath with jetted tub is like being in the woods. The Guest Bedroom with Extra Length Twin Beds (which may be joined to make a King) and second Bath, are privately located on the Main Floor. A Charming Music Room, for those who love Piano, is a wonderful retreat also allowing space for additional sleeping (Coleman Mattress) and offers an adjacent Half Bath.
On those chilly evenings the wood burning stone fireplace adds the final touch of what we most seem to enjoy in our mountains. Welcome home !!
**House will be Closed and Winterized for December through March. We will accept reservations for 2022 beginning 1/01/2022.
