Property Description
Welcome to “Song Sparrow,” a beautifully renovated mountain retreat in desirable Highland Hills at Apple Lake, where relaxed Highlands living comes easily. Just minutes from downtown and near Half-Mile Farm, this inviting 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath home offers the comfort of one-level living paired with stylish interiors and wonderful outdoor spaces designed for enjoying the seasons. Inside, the open-concept living, dining, and kitchen areas create a natural gathering place, enhanced by elegant coffered ceilings and thoughtful updates throughout. The beautifully appointed kitchen features custom cabinetry and a six-burner ZLINE range, while renovated baths and a versatile den or office add both style and functionality. Outside, the new fire pit creates the perfect setting for cool mountain evenings, cocktails with friends, or quiet nights under the stars. Apple Lake and the surrounding neighborhood enhance the sense of retreat, while the convenience of downtown Highlands is just minutes away. Whether envisioned as a full-time residence, an easy mountain getaway, or a second home to share with family and friends, Song Sparrow offers the kind of comfortable, low-maintenance Highlands lifestyle that makes it easy to arrive and immediately begin enjoying the mountains. Adding to its appeal, the property has an excellent established short-term rental history, offering owners the flexibility to enjoy the home personally while retaining meaningful income-producing potential when not in residence. 65 Nantahala Lane is a thoughtfully updated Highlands retreat that brings together location, lifestyle, comfort, and versatility in one inviting package.
