This home is set in the beautiful wooded area of Holly Forest I in Sapphire Valley. It is a great location for golfing, hiking, fishing, and everything outdoors, shopping, restaurants and just enjoying the mountains of western North Carolina. Cashiers and Highlands N.C. are close by for shopping, art fairs, outdoor concerts, and restaurant dining.
Upon returning from an active day, you can sit on the screened porch and enjoy a cocktail while grilling on the outside deck. During cool evenings, an outdoor fire in the fire pit is perfect for making s’mores. In the colder months, make a fire inside and cook in the fully equipped kitchen. Watch sports or movies on any of the three TVs. And finally, fall into bed in either the downstairs master or one of the two upstairs bedrooms. In the summer you can listen to the sounds of cicadas and crickets as you are lulled to sleep, ready for the next day of fun!
