Property Description

WHITESIDE MOUNTAIN. YOUR FRONT ROW. Some views you drive past. This one stops you cold. From the moment you arrive on the custom paver drive, gas lanterns flickering at the entry, Whiteside Mountain fills the horizon like it was commissioned for this exact property. It wasn't. But it feels that way. 429 Hardscrabble Ridge Road is a brand-new, spec home on 1.79 private acres, with thoughtfully designed, luxury-appointed living space and an unfinished basement with 14-foot ceilings ready to become whatever you dream: home theater, bunk room, gym, wine cellar, or a combination of all four. Those ceilings aren't an accident. They're an invitation. Inside, every finish reflects a decision to build this right or not at all. The custom fireplace anchors the living area, wood or gas, your choice. The kitchen carries a luxury appliance package and connects to a fully equipped prep kitchen for serious entertaining. A wet bar with wine cooler and ice machine means the party never has to pause. Eight Sonos speakers mean it never goes quiet. Wide-plank luxury vinyl flooring runs throughout the main living areas, chosen for its durability in a mountain climate. Four bedrooms, four and a half baths, a loft with its own Samsung TV, a Samsung Frame TV above the fireplace. Above the garage, a versatile bonus room with a full bath adds even more living space: home office, workout room, media room, whatever the next owner needs it to be. Outdoors: a gas firepit, a built-in propane grill system, a professionally designed landscape with a custom water feature, and that mountain, always that mountain, filling the sky above your deck. The main level comes professionally staged with a designer furniture package, available for purchase, negotiated separately. Move in and start living on the main floor, then make the upper level your own. The practical details matter too: Highlands town water with auto shut-off, a 1,000-gallon below grown propane tank, a generator, and fiber internet. A town fire hydrant sits directly across the street. The HOA runs an estimated $2,500 for 2026. The standing seam roof has ice guards. Nothing was an afterthought. New construction with this view of Whiteside Mountain does not come along often. Do not miss your opportunity to call this beautiful property your own.
