630 Cobb RD Highlands, NC 28741

This enchanting single-level mountain property in Highlands Country Club is the epitome of "old Highlands" charm. The owners have made all the updates that today's buyers expect but have retained the magic of years gone by, such as gleaming hardwood floors and wormwood walls in the bedrooms and dining room. There were no corners cut with this renovation; a new lifetime metal roof was added, and windows, doors, and kitchen were all updated. A new dual-fueled efficient heat pump with humidity control, which can be monitored and adjusted from your cell phone, was added, and both main house and cottage have been encapsulated. Great separation of bedroom spaces affords everyone their privacy as well as their own baths. The beautifully updated kitchen boasts double Bosch ovens so the chef won't have to juggle oven time and temperatures. The back deck is the perfect spot to enjoy the cool summer temperatures while listening to the sounds of children playing in the yard. Views of the 5th hole on the championship Donald Ross course can be seen from the rear of the home. The owners have enjoyed many golf days during which they drove right up to the deck for lunch or to pick up a grandchild for a ride. The cozy stone patio off the dining area is a perfect place to enjoy an after-dinner cup of tea. A separate guest house boasts wormwood walls, a full bath, plus a coffee bar, and will keep your overflow guests cozy and happy. The home is directly across the golf course from the club canoe dock where one can fish, canoe, and paddleboard; it is also makes a wonderful spot for sunset cocktails. This home is only minutes away from downtown Highlands, where one can find award-winning restaurants, spas, art galleries, world-class shopping, the Bascom Center for the Visual Arts, the Highlands Playhouse, and the Performing Arts Center. Numerous hiking trails and waterfalls are nearby.
