Description: Situated within the emerald embrace of the Nantahala National Forest, Highlands Pass isn't just a gated community – it's a portal to a life whispered by the wind and painted by sun-dappled trails glittering with mica. Here, amidst the whisper of pines and the gurgle of mountain streams, you'll find your sanctuary. Envision mornings greeted by cool mountain air and the promise of mountain vistas with a little tree-trimming. Envision evenings spent unwinding by crackling fire pits, or sharing laughter and stories under a canopy of stars on the community overlook deck. Highlands Pass offers the best of both worlds: the peace and privacy of a gated community with paved roads for convenience, all interwoven with the untamed beauty of nature trails and prehistoric boulders whispering tales of time. Whether you cast a line in the Twin Ponds, teeming with vibrant fish, or explore the five miles of existing trails with plans for more to come, every day here is an adventure. Build your dream home to cradle your mountain dreams, and let Highlands Pass become the canvas for your life's masterpiece.
