Description

Two homes for the price of one in the desirable Mirror Lake area of Highlands. Set on 0.97± acres, this rare dual-residence offering includes a thoughtfully renovated main home with 2 bedrooms, 3 baths, a spacious bonus room that can serve as a den or guest suite with ensuite bath, plus a separate office or media room. A separate guest house offers 3 bedrooms and 2 full baths, creating flexibility for personal enjoyment, rental income, extended guests, or a private mountain retreat. Located just 6± minutes from downtown Highlands and 20 minutes from Cashiers, NC, 85 & 95 Ralph Thomas Rd offer convenient access to dining, shopping, hiking trails, waterfalls, National Forest lands, and the outdoor lifestyle that makes the Highlands-Cashiers Plateau so desirable. 95 Ralph Thomas Rd currently serves as the main residence and has been thoughtfully updated for mountain living. The home features 2 bedrooms, 3 baths, a generous bonus room with ensuite bath that can function as a den, guest suite, or flexible overflow space, along with a separate office or media room. Stainless steel appliances complement the kitchen, while the open and covered deck features electronic roll-down panels for comfortable enjoyment across multiple seasons. A 2-car attached garage provides storage and includes a workshop area. 85 Ralph Thomas Rd offers a refreshed guest house with a distinctive layout designed for gathering, relaxing, and hosting. The 3-bedroom, 2-bath floor plan includes two living rooms and two wood-burning stone fireplaces, creating inviting spaces for family, friends, or rental guests. Expansive wraparound decks encourage outdoor enjoyment, while a level yard, plentiful parking, and a 1-car attached garage add everyday convenience. This dual-residence configuration offers opportunities rarely found this close to downtown Highlands. Continue the property's established rental success, provide private accommodations for visiting guests, or maintain separate living spaces for a variety of needs. Whether envisioned as an investment opportunity, personal mountain getaway, or a combination of both, this property offers a level of versatility that is difficult to find. Combining two independent residences, rental history, updated interiors, outdoor living spaces, garage and workshop space, and a location near the area's most popular attractions, 85 & 95 Ralph Thomas Rd represent an exceptional opportunity in one of Highlands' most desirable settings.
