Welcome to Fern Mist, a private 11+ acre mountain estate where breathtaking views, beautifully cultivated grounds, and thoughtful design come together just minutes from Highlands. With interiors by acclaimed Atlanta designer Stephen Pararo, the residence blends sophistication with the warmth of mountain living. A gated, paved drive winds past an orchard, gardens, and wildflowers before arriving at the home, perfectly positioned to capture expansive 180-degree, long-range mountain views. Inside, vaulted, beamed ceilings, warm wood floors, and three stone fireplaces bring character to the light-filled interiors. The open living and dining areas flow into a chef's kitchen featuring an expansive island, a 48-inch six-burner gas range with double steam ovens, two dishwashers, a Sub-Zero refrigerator, refrigerator drawers, an ice maker, and a built-in coffee station. The main-level primary suite is a true retreat with an eye-level stone fireplace, a walk-in closet, and a luxurious bathroom with a marble steam shower. A dedicated office sits just off the main living and dining area. Downstairs, two ensuite guest bedrooms offer privacy and direct access to the lower covered porch and grounds. Outdoor living is woven into every part of Fern Mist. Expansive wraparound porches, including covered, screened, and open-air spaces, invite you to enjoy the magnificent views. A cascading waterfall and pond lead to a flagstone fire pit with a gas starter. Beautiful rock walls terrace the property, complementing stone pathways, lush landscaping, and landscape moonlighting. Two outbuildings add exceptional versatility. One serves as a private workout studio and "she-shed," while the larger workshop features a wood-burning stove, a lounge area with a television, a workspace, and additional storage. Fiber internet, a 20-kW generator, and zoned dual-fuel heating provide modern conveniences. Fern Mist is more than a mountain home. It is a true Plateau estate, offering remarkable privacy, magnificent views, and an extraordinary Highlands lifestyle.

2 Beds ⋅ 3 Baths ⋅ 1004216 MLS

Tucked at the end of a private gravel road on 3.94 acres bordering National Forest, this beautifully renovated retreat is the definition of true seclusion — the kind where you can't see another rooftop, Nicholas Branch runs along the property's edge, and hiking can happen right from your front door. Inside, a fully reimagined kitchen blends European charm with brand-new GE Cafe appliances — hand-painted tile, a statement copper hood, and cabinetry with real personality. The great room's wood-beamed ceilings and stone fireplace set the tone for the whole home: warm, unfussy, and built for gathering. Upstairs, both bedrooms open onto a screened porch outfitted with a swinging bed, where the view of White Rock Mountain does most of the talking. Outside, a covered porch with its own stone fireplace looks out over the rock-face view, while the flat, fenced backyard — complete with a stone retaining wall, a fire pit, and a storybook garden shed — makes the most of rare level ground in the mountains. A second deck offers even more room to gather. Set in the charming community of Scaly Mountain, the property is just 20 minutes from downtown Highlands and Clayton, Georgia — close enough for dinner out or an afternoon on Main Street, far enough to feel like your own world. The Bartram Trail crosses the ridges nearby, and Highlands Aerial Park and Highlands Outpost are just down the road for zip lining, tubing, and trout fishing. This is mountain living with room to breathe: more trees, more silence, and a setting that can't be replicated closer to town. This is a home for buyers who know exactly what they're looking for: uncompromising privacy, a renovation done right, and a place that offers the best of both worlds — the quiet of the mountains and the culture of Highlands, minutes away.
