Property Description
Discover a place where the beauty of the mountains, the peaceful sounds of rushing water, and the timeless charm of Horse Cove come together to create an extraordinary mountain lifestyle. Welcome to 85 Hillcrest Drive, a unique retreat nestled in one of the Highlands area's most picturesque and historic valleys. Situated on approximately 3.58 acres in the heart of Horse Cove, this distinctive property offers a wonderful combination of natural beauty, privacy, and mountain character. Originally a barn, the residence has been thoughtfully transformed into an inviting mountain home, surrounded by lush greenery, mature trees, and a rushing stream that flows toward Edwards Creek. The setting invites you to slow down, reconnect with nature, and enjoy the simple pleasures of mountain living. Horse Cove is one of the Highlands area's hidden treasures, a beautiful valley surrounded by majestic mountains, where winding country roads, historic homesteads, flowing streams, and unspoiled landscapes preserve the character of a simpler time. Here, mornings begin with birdsong and fresh mountain air, afternoons invite hiking, fishing, and exploring nearby waterfalls, and evenings are best enjoyed around the fire pit beneath a canopy of stars. The property's natural surroundings provide a wonderful setting for outdoor living, gardening, entertaining, or simply relaxing and listening to the sounds of the creek. Its connection to the area's rich history adds a special dimension to this remarkable mountain retreat. Just a scenic drive away, downtown Highlands offers an entirely different experience. Enjoy exceptional restaurants, charming boutiques, art galleries, live performances, and the welcoming atmosphere that has made Highlands one of the Southeast's most beloved mountain destinations. From leisurely mornings exploring Main Street to afternoons on nearby hiking trails and evenings dining with friends, the Highlands lifestyle offers an exceptional balance of outdoor adventure and small-town sophistication. 85 Hillcrest Drive is more than a mountain home. It is an opportunity to embrace the natural beauty, tranquility, and authentic character of Horse Cove while enjoying the exceptional lifestyle that makes Highlands so special.
