A Jeffrey Dungan-designed two-level Low Country XL at The Preserve at Whiteside Cliffs, a thoughtfully curated designer cottage community between Highlands and Cashiers. This home lets you embrace outdoor living in any season. Two full levels of deck wrap the house, with Whiteside rising across the valley. Above, a wide main deck with room to dine and a fire pit to gather around. Below, a covered deck off the lower level and a hot tub deck beyond it. The current owners have improved on the original design with care. A covered, screened porch extends from the primary bedroom, framed to follow the existing roofline as though it were always intended. It is a private space off the bedroom, open to the mountain air and out of the weather. A bump-out off the main level adds a mudroom and laundry — which the original plan never had — with a built-in bench, hooks, and shelving, plus an interior stairwell leading down to the covered lower deck. Downstairs is where this one separates itself. The lower-level living room is the largest room in the house, with French doors onto its own covered deck. Alongside it are a bedroom, a full bathroom, a private entry, and a kitchen with a Wolf induction cooktop, a vented hood, a stainless farmhouse sink, a dishwasher, walnut counters, and a full-size refrigerator. Open the house up and use every bit of it, or let guests or a rental arrangement have their own space entirely. The separation between levels gives the next owner real options. Cathedral ceilings with exposed beams over seven-inch engineered oak floors, and windows on three sides of the main living space. Quartz counters, aluminum-clad Ply Gem windows, Mitsubishi mini-splits, and a whole-home generator. Parking is generous by the standards of the community, with a dedicated space directly serving the lower level. The drive is built on a TruGrid system finished in brown river stone, with a stone apron where it meets the pavement and a stone border around the perimeter. Paved roads, underground utilities, and fiber throughout.

Not all new construction is created equal—and this newly completed custom mountain-modern retreat proves it. Originally conceived as a personal residence rather than a spec home, it was engineered for four-season performance with poured-concrete walls, 2x6 exterior framing, closed-cell foam insulation, moisture wrap, high-efficiency Trane systems, heated bath floors, tankless hot water and a whole-house Generac generator. Brava synthetic cedar shake, 26-gauge standing-seam metal roofing, fiber-cement siding and Trex decking offer outstanding durability with minimal maintenance.

Perched at approximately 4,500 feet atop Double Knob, this 4BR/4.5BA home captures sweeping mountain and valley views, glorious sunrises and unforgettable sunsets. Inside, pecky pecan floors, beamed tongue-and-groove ceilings, custom paint and three fireplaces create warmth and character. Expansive windows frame the landscape, while the chef’s kitchen commands attention with an Explosion Blue island, Calacatta Oro surfaces, Wolf dual-fuel range, Bosch dishwasher, microwave drawer, wine and beverage refrigeration and LG smart refrigerator. The primary suite offers dual closets, ridge-top views and a spa-inspired bath. Outdoor living truly shines with a screened patio, fireplace lounge, sunset-facing dining porch, fire pit, and multiple decks. An oversized, finished two-car garage includes EV-ready power, plus approximately 780 heated and cooled square feet above—ideal for a studio, office, fitness space or guest overflow. A $16,000 mahogany entry door, keyless access, luxury laundry and a $75,000 landscape package complete this exceptionally thoughtful home. Set within Chinquapin’s gated 2,000-acre mountain preserve—nearly 700 acres of which are held in permanent conservation—the home pairs privacy with a remarkable outdoor lifestyle. Community amenities include miles of hiking, mountain-biking and UTV trails; native trout fishing; Camp Chinquapin with canoeing, archery and campfires; pickleball courts; disc golf; an activity field; driving range; fishing cabins along Robinson Creek; summer concerts at the Chinquapin Stage; and an FAA-certified helipad. All this natural adventure is only minutes from the dining, shopping, art and culture of Cashiers.
