Property Description
Wake up to crisp mountain air drifting through the windows and step onto your screened deck with a steaming cup of coffee as the sun rises over the rolling greens of Highlands Country Club. This extraordinary European-style cottage lovingly dubbed "Boxwood" seamlessly blends timeless sophistication with a touch of mountain flair. Originally designed and masterfully built by Ralph Thomas, this one-of-a-kind residence showcases Old World artistry and millwork of a quality rarely seen in Highlands. Every detail has been executed with precision, creating a home that cannot be replicated. Boxwood offers sweeping views of the Donald Ross–designed golf course, including the 10th, 14th, and 15th fairways and greens. From the expansive screened deck that opens directly from the living room, you can relax and enjoy the seamless connection between indoor and outdoor living while watching golfers test their skills against the lush mountain backdrop. Accessible year-round, with club membership available (subject to approval and applicable fees), this location offers both prestige and convenience. Inside, the home is filled with character and natural light from high-end windows imported from Europe that open inward to invite fresh mountain breezes. Heart pine floors run throughout the main level, and the striking staircase features unique log steps, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. The main level includes a serene primary suite with a spa-like bath, while the upper level is ideal for guests, offering two spacious en-suite bedrooms. Above the oversized two-car garage, yet accessible from inside the home, is a fourth bedroom that could also work beautifully as a bunk room, office, or game room. Whether hosting friends on the deck or simply admiring the craftsmanship that defines every inch of this residence, you will find this is far more than a home—it is a work of art. Truly unique, this property must be seen to be fully appreciated.
