Steeped in Highlands history, this charming 1920s cottage sits on over 13 acres of wooded land, perennial gardens, and native flora. Built by Henry Wright—a noted naturalist and contributor to the Highlands Botanical Garden—the home showcases enduring craftsmanship. The kitchen features original wormy chestnut cabinetry, while the living room is clad in chestnut paneling milled from the property. A granite fireplace anchors the space, and herringbone red oak flooring, laid by Wright himself, adds character and warmth. The land is a haven for native species, including Turk’s Cap Lilies, Pink Ladyslippers, several rare Trillium varieties, and the elusive Shortia (Oconee Bells). The current owners, dedicated and knowledgeable gardeners, have carefully stewarded this botanical legacy—preserving genetic lines that trace back to the original plantings from Wright’s time on the property. The main level includes the kitchen, living room with wood stove insert, and primary bedroom and bath. Upstairs offers a second bedroom and office or study. A covered front porch overlooks the serene setting. Additional features include a small pond, dual streams, a vintage garage used for storage, and a detached shop with maple flooring reclaimed from the old Highlands School gym—perfect for a studio, office, or future guest house. Located just minutes from downtown Highlands, this private, well-insulated property offers incredible potential as a family compound or legacy estate using the existing home as a guest residence!
