859 Horse Cove RD Highlands, NC 28741

Wonderful, historic home on 1.5 gorgeous acres with gardens and pathways. This home has been the site of many dahlia events as the previous owner raised show-stopping dahlias in her gardens. Located just a couple of minutes' walk to the grocery store, church, dining and theater. The charming main house has three bedrooms, three full baths and two half baths, and there is a cozy guest cottage with an additional two bedrooms and one bath. The current owner enclosed the original carport into a one-car garage that still leaves plenty of space for a workshop bench or storage. The amazing double wooden front door opens to a beautiful living room and lovely breakfast space. The double-sided fireplace separates this area from the large updated kitchen that boasts an oversized granite and wood island, a range/oven that any cook would envy, plus a small seating area and a welcoming library. This level has one bedroom with a private bath that is currently used as an artist's studio. The spacious dining area is augmented by a butler's pantry and opens to a charming covered side deck. The upstairs is the owner's realm with a spacious bedroom, massive closet, and one-and-a-half baths. The terrace level includes a lovely family room with a third fireplace and opens to a stone patio. Another guest suite, laundry, and great storage complete this level. The guest house has a complete kitchen plus two bedrooms, one bath, and a lovely sitting area.
