A complete top-to-bottom remodel elevated this mountain modern showpiece into one of Highlands Falls' most compelling offerings — positioned directly on the 18th fairway with sweeping views of the surrounding ponds. The architecture is clean and confident, the finishes are current, and the setting is simply fantastic. The great room is the heart of the home — a generous, light-filled space where the kitchen flows seamlessly through the dining area and out through nano doors onto a large covered and screened deck. Stone fireplace, fairway views, open sky: the upper deck delivers the full Highlands experience in every season. A second private deck off the lower-level living area offers a quieter retreat, ideal for intimate gatherings away from the main entertaining spaces. Five bedrooms and five bathrooms are distributed across a thoughtfully designed floor plan with room to host and room to breathe. Arrival is an event in itself — a circular driveway sweeps through a large porte-cochere, with a two-car garage and dedicated golf cart garage completing the motor court. Parking is plentiful; the transition from car to front door is effortless. The beautifully landscaped 1.13-acre lot is planted with flowering shrubs of multiple varieties, delivering color and texture across the seasons. Highlands Falls Country Club membership is available — and for those who choose it, the club has undergone a remarkable revitalization, emerging as a vibrant, amenity-rich destination that is very much at the center of the community.
