About 205 Chowan Drive
Nestled among lush trees in the sought-after Mirror Lake area, this beautifully remodeled 2-bedroom, 2-bath cottage blends modern comfort with timeless “Old Highlands” charm. Classic shake siding and winter views of Whiteside Mountain set the stage for a peaceful mountain retreat, where you can relax to the soothing sounds of the nearby waterfall at Mirror Lake Dam. Inside, natural light fills the inviting, treehouse-like interior, accentuating exposed wood ceilings and high-end finishes throughout. Each bedroom includes a private ensuite bath, and the thoughtfully designed layout makes excellent use of space. The kitchen is both stylish and functional, equipped with top-tier appliances, while the HVAC system features Wi-Fi connectivity for remote access. Outdoors, enjoy alfresco dining on the covered porch or gather around the firepit for cozy evenings under the stars. The home comes mostly furnished and move-in ready, with a recently expanded lower parking area for added convenience. This cottage has a proven track record as a successful vacation rental and is equally ideal as a serene second home or weekend retreat. Adding to its appeal, the seller is including the adjoining lot (PIN #7530848634), which offers potential views of Whiteside Mountain and the option to connect to town sewer. Together, the home and lot present a rare opportunity to own a turnkey Highlands getaway with both charm and future potential.
