SHORT TERM RENTALS ALLOWED. Sold Furnished (with a few exceptions). Welcome to your pier-a-terre: a fun and easy weekend getaway place. Live among the treetops in this classic Highlands 2-bedroom, 2-bath cottage, perfectly tucked away in the nature yet just minutes from town. Located just 2 minutes from the historic Highlands Country Club and 7 min. from downtown, this charming retreat offers both seclusion and convenience. Surrounded by mature rhododendron & mountain laurel, this home requires no lawn maintenance. Inside, an open living room & dining room space flows into the kitchen, with both areas opening onto a spacious back deck nestled among mature trees. Large, energy-efficient windows allow an abundance of natural light and nature’s beauty into the home. The rear of the property borders Glen Falls Road-a popular, well-marked, pet friendly hiking trail that leads to one of the area’s most beautiful waterfalls, Glen Falls. Perfect for exploring nature with friends and family. The primary bedroom and bath are located on the main floor, while the second bedroom and bath upstairs offer privacy for guests. Whether you’re looking for a peaceful Highlands retreat or a smart investment, this property is a rare find.
