Property Description
Tucked into the Osage Estates subdivision — accessed through the sought-after Rocky Knob community — this two-bedroom mountain retreat pairs easy living with an unbeatable setting. Neighborhood trails wind past a community lake and throughout the property, and the sense of community here runs deep: neighbors wave, stop to chat, and genuinely look out for one another. Inside, an open floor plan has been thoughtfully updated throughout. The kitchen is the heart of the home, anchored by a striking wood slab island with seating for several — the kind of gathering spot that makes everyday cooking feel like an event. Both bedrooms offer the privacy and convenience of ensuite bathrooms, ideal for owners and guests alike. A huge loft area with a half bathroom adds flexible living space — perfect as a home office, den, or creative studio. Below, a large basement/garage offers as-is storage and parking, with future potential for additional living space. Step out onto the porch and take in sweeping views of Rabun Bald — your morning coffee, evening cocktail, or quiet moment spot, with pileated woodpeckers, hummingbirds, and other wildlife making regular appearances. At 10-15 degrees cooler than the surrounding lowlands, Scaly Mountain's climate makes this a true four-season retreat, with live music at the Vineyard at High Holly, local arts and crafts shows, and breathtaking scenery rounding out the lifestyle. Best of both worlds: just 15 minutes to downtown Highlands, NC, and 20 minutes to Clayton, GA — both offering exceptional shopping, dining, and culture — then retreat to your private mountain escape for peace and quiet. A rare offering in a community built for connection, comfort, and mountain living at its best.
