Einfamilienhaus In Den Highlands

A canopied woodland escape with 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, 2 stone wood-burning fireplaces, and expansive outdoor living areas. Located in the historic Billy Cabin area of Mirror Lake, the home enjoys a private setting with the convenience of Highlands Main Street and a grocery store only four minutes away. This contemporary cottage has the Highlands essentials covered, plus flexibility for short-term or long-term rentals, since it’s just outside town limits. Upstairs, the circular main-level living room features a turret-inspired beamed ceiling, wood floors, and stone wood-burning fireplace. A windowed wall lets in natural light, while two sliding glass doors lead out to the large, open deck. The deck offers plenty of room to dine and lounge, and it’s a great sun trap for enjoying the mountains. The spacious kitchen combines granite countertops and stainless steel Whirlpool appliances, with an open connection to the dining and living area. Two bedrooms share a full bath with a tub/shower, and the stackable washer/dryer in the laundry room is nearby. Downstairs, a 2nd living room features natural wood-paneled walls, stone wood-burning fireplace, wood floors, and a large-screen TV. The spacious master bedroom suite accommodates a king-sized bed, and the bathroom features a Cielo jetted tub and glass-enclosed shower with dual showerheads. The lower living area opens to a covered flagstone porch, where a below-deck drainage system keeps the sitting area dry. Stone steps connect the gardens, and the fenced backyard includes a stone patio for grilling or gathering around a fire pit. A one-car garage, boot room, and storage space round out the lower level. Upgraded systems, including new HVAC in 2023 and high-speed internet, add everyday convenience. For morning coffee with a side of exercise, stroll to Skyline Lodge for espresso in the lobby or Oak Steakhouse for an early dinner. This 3.5-mile walk is only an hour round trip and is an added bonus of the property’s location! The current owners love mountain biking and off-leash dog walks on Billy Cabin Rd and other gravel roads from the property. With three bedrooms, two baths, and well-established rental history, the home suits everyday living, mountain weekends, or a mix of personal use and rentals. Its location outside Highlands’ town limits means it is not subject to the town’s short-term rental restrictions. Book a showing, claim your spot on the deck, and let’s get your mountain weekends on the calendar.
