The terrace level gives this residence a dimension rarely found in a townhome. With its own exterior entrance, living area, full kitchen, laundry, ensuite bedroom and covered outdoor space, it can live independently while remaining connected to the rest of the home. Welcome family and friends without sacrificing privacy, create a retreat for extended-stay guests, or use all three levels as one comfortable residence. Located just outside the Highlands town limits, White Oak Village also offers valuable rental flexibility. Enjoy the home whenever Highlands calls, rent the entire residence while you are away, or explore the potential to rent the terrace level independently. Fresh finishes, thoughtful design and low-maintenance ownership make this an inviting opportunity for both personal enjoyment and potential income. Six residences were created, one has already sold, and five opportunities remain. Your place in Highlands is ready when you are.
