Description

Conveniently positioned between Highlands and Cashiers, the quaint community of Apple Mountain offers a serene mountain setting with exceptional convenience. This spacious one-level home is thoughtfully designed for effortless living and entertaining, with light-filled open spaces and a beautifully landscaped setting. The expansive lot is a true outdoor retreat, featuring established flower gardens, a fire pit, 2 forts with a zip line in between, putting green, and a charming moss-covered pathway leading to deeded lake access at Cullasaja Club—accessible by foot or golf cart. Spend leisurely days fishing, canoeing, or paddleboarding while surrounded by the beauty of the mountains. Inside, the inviting open floor plan showcases a spacious living and dining area anchored by an oversized stone fireplace. The well-designed kitchen offers abundant cabinetry, a walk-in pantry, and two refrigerators, while a full laundry room with sink, private office, and additional bonus room provide exceptional functionality. The living spaces flow seamlessly onto a cozy screened porch overlooking the lush greenspace. The primary suite features two large walk-in closets and a generous bath with both a walk-in shower and soaking tub. Two additional guest bedrooms, each with a full bath, provide comfortable accommodations for family and friends. Outdoor living shines here, from stargazing on the spacious deck to gathering around the firepit for s'mores and evenings filled with conversation while listening to the sounds of the katydids. Car enthusiasts and hobbyists will appreciate the two-car attached garage plus a separate two-car detached garage with workshop area. A generator provides peace of mind, while a small fenced dog run offers a convenient sheltered space for four-legged companions. Recent improvements include a beautifully repainted exterior, updated interior lighting, new furnaces, and new water heaters. Apple Mountain offers a peaceful neighborhood green space with a playground and ample room for walking. Ideally located just 10 minutes from downtown Highlands and 10 minutes from Cashiers, with Cullasaja Club and Wildcat Cliffs Country Club nearby, this exceptional mountain retreat combines privacy, recreation, and convenience in one highly desirable setting.
