Nothing to do here but enjoy it. Just ten minutes from downtown Highlands, this gorgeously renovated, nearly 3,700-square-foot home sits in a hidden gem of a community that feels like a country club without the country club dues. The big work is already done... a new roof, new HVAC systems and new water heaters... so there's nothing left but to arrive, settle in and enjoy, with plenty to do right outside your door. Thoughtfully reimagined through a comprehensive, designer-led renovation, the residence is filled with natural light and elevated finishes, including wide-plank white oak floors, honed soapstone, crisp white shiplap and striking beamed ceilings. The warm, sophisticated palette feels current yet timeless, while expansive covered balconies and a rare, level backyard create an exceptional connection between indoor and outdoor living. The main level offers a welcoming stone fireplace, a chef's galley kitchen with a custom banquette, dining space for twelve, an open family room, a double garage, a full covered deck, guest quarters and a serene primary suite. The bright lower level features a generous club room with space for a media lounge and pool table, opening to a covered balcony and the backyard... perfect for croquet, entertaining or relaxed afternoons outdoors. An additional bedroom and a versatile bonus room, ideal for an office, gym or overflow guests, complete the lower level. Outside, the Highlands-style landscape follows the natural slope of the property before opening to the unusually large, flat backyard. True to its name, Forest Trail is surrounded by national forest, hiking trails, pristine horse pastures, a well-stocked trout stream and lake, and the prestigious Cold Springs Saddle & Tennis Club.

48 Mountain Brook Way, Highlands

$925,000

Tucked into 3.09 private, unrestricted acres with no HOA, this fully reimagined mountain retreat pairs warm, custom craftsmanship with the kind of usable, gently terraced land that's genuinely rare on the plateau. A series of flat, landscaped tiers step down from the home toward a stone fire pit patio, giving you real outdoor living space to match the views — including a 180-degree mountain vista in the winter months. Inside, tobacco weathered acacia wood flooring runs throughout, setting a warm tone for every space. The kitchen is a true centerpiece, with custom wood cabinetry, high-end appliances, a breakfast bar, and French doors that open straight onto the deck — with a cozy coffee nook tucked just off to the side. A wood-beamed living room centers on a stacked-stone fireplace, and the adjoining dining room is finished with wainscoting. All three bedrooms are ensuite with king beds. The primary suite is a retreat of its own: a private office with French doors opening to the deck and mountain views, a spa-caliber bathroom with a custom stone-wall walk-in shower, and a built-in sauna that seats four. Heated slate floors run through all three bathrooms. A well-appointed laundry room adds a stackable washer/dryer, a sink, and a custom built-in dog bed. Outside, the home offers an oversized two-car garage/outbuilding with untapped potential, a circular driveway, a single-car carport, and dedicated RV parking — all connected by a gravel drive that winds past the terraced, landscaped grounds. It's a rare combination of privacy and usable land in the Highlands market, with views of Yellow Mountain from the property. In the last two years, the sellers have replaced the septic system, furnace, and water heater, rewired and re-plumbed the entire home, rebuilt the deck, and added additional insulation for year-round efficiency — the next owner inherits not just beautiful finishes, but a home that's been renewed from the ground up. Just 5 minutes to the Yellow Mountain trailhead, 15 minutes to downtown Highlands, 25 minutes to Cashiers, and 30 minutes to Franklin — private, move-in ready, and perfectly positioned to enjoy everything the Plateau has to offer.
