Ralph Lauren-inspired interiors feel sophisticated yet warm, perfectly suited to life in Highlands.

Beyond the interiors, an extraordinary adventure awaits. Pass Mo, the enormous bronze moose, and descend into a private enchanted forest that must be experienced to appreciate its magic. Moss-covered paths with cable railings lead down locust-and-stone steps, past a massive boulder where spring water trickles through unusual moss formations, then by a hidden cave. Follow the sound of moving water to a mountain waterfall meandering through the stones—a setting reminiscent of a national park, yet entirely your own. Hike from home and explore a trail network extended by neighboring properties. An oversized two-bay golf-cart garage provides room for multiple carts, clubs and gear, with the clubhouse just a short ride away. Wildcat Cliffs offers championship golf, croquet, pickleball, fitness center with indoor pool, fishing ponds and walking trails.
