Mirror Lake Retreat | Walk to Town!

Summary:

Welcome to Maison Rouge! This is a proper mid-century lake house with a smart layout, real privacy, and a tranquil vibe. It’s tucked into the trees on Mirror Lake with a wraparound deck, fire pit, and plenty of room for everyone to breathe. For when you want to venture into town, we're *only a three minute drive from downtown Highlands*.



The Space:

Reminiscent of a quaint Swiss chalet, “Maison Rouge” has been in the same family since the residence was built in 1965. Situated on a private lakefront wooded acre of lush Rhododendrons, Dogwoods, fragrant Carolina cherry

laurels, azaleas, and pine trees, this waterfront home has enviable unobstructed views of Mirror Lake.



The home features 4 bedrooms and 3 full baths. There are a total of 7 beds: 1 King and 1 Queen on the 1st floor, and 4 Twin beds on the2nd floor—plus a sleeper sofa in the lower level. Both second floor bedrooms have charming balconies, one of which overlooking Mirror Lake. Each bedroom has its own look and feel, but all of them are quiet, comfortable, and well-lit.



The main floor galley kitchen is fully equipped with under-cabinet lighting,

oven/range, dishwasher, microwave, coffee maker, toaster oven, glassware, a

complete set for 12 of fine china, cutlery, as well as bake-ware, pots, pans, a

stock pot, and a few pieces of 100 year-old seasoned cast iron cookware.



The living room opens to a large wrap-around deck and has a gas-fired

stacked-stone fireplace, flat-screen TV, DVD/VHS player with 5-disk CD

player and AM/FM. The home is wired for Internet, cable and Smart TV.



The lower level has an open family room with entertainment kitchen, gas

fireplace, flat-screen TV and full bath. A terrace with Weber gas grill and

dining table (seats 6) is also on the lower level, along with a washer and

dryer.



There is a flat-bottom boat (life jackets and paddles are located in the storage

room). Fishing is catch and release.



Maison Rouge is conveniently located within walking distance (a little less

than 1 mile) or a 3-minute drive from downtown Highlands, the ideal destination for romance,

girlfriend getaways, families and leisure groups. It's a very private and a special find!
