Beyond the gated entrance and private forest road, just minutes from Main Street Highlands, this Norman Askins–renovated cedar-shingle farmhouse sits on 6.77 acres of rolling lawn, mature native flora and hardwood forests. Offering privacy, location and timeless charm, 200 Upper Carriage Hill is just outside of town limits, on the Atlanta side of the Plateau, and borders a protected 3+ acre conservation easement. Native stone walls and steps frame the home and descend to two spring-fed ponds and forest views. The large screened porch and flagstone terraces extend daily life into the landscape. Inside, the four-bedroom three-bath home is elegant yet relaxed, with its white paneled walls, beamed ceilings, built-ins, hardwood floors, and generous windows. The kitchen offers garden views, Sub-Zero, Bosch and Wolf appliances, two pantries, white marble counter tops and a large island for prep and eating. There are multiple alcoves throughout the home for relaxing, working and creative pursuits. The two fireplaces invite gathering in the great room or den. Close to the Glen Falls hiking trails, this distinctive property offers the tranquility of a secluded country retreat with room for growth, and the ease of access to Highlands, North Carolina's restaurants, galleries, boutiques, and cultural attractions. Two recorded tracts, including three very nice buildable lots, add to the properties versatility and value, subject to any applicable restrictions and approvals. This is a turnkey legacy property. Furnishings negotiable, with select exclusions.
