Butternut Cottage is a rare offering on Lake Sequoyah. The cottage is a masterfully reimagined historic residence where timeless mountain craftsmanship meets refined modern living. Originally built in 1940 and meticulously renovated in 2020, this home preserves its authentic soul while elevating every detail for today’s luxury lifestyle. From the moment you enter, the home reveals its character through extensive use of reclaimed wormy chestnut, thoughtfully integrated throughout the interior. Custom cabinetry in the downstairs kitchen and secondary bathrooms showcases this storied wood, preserving the warmth and patina of the original structure while giving it new life in a sophisticated, curated design. A striking live-edge staircase crafted from butternut wood serves as both architectural centerpiece and sculptural art piece, setting the tone for a residence defined by organic elegance and craftsmanship. Throughout the home, four wood-burning fireplaces create inviting focal points, offering warmth and ambiance across multiple living spaces. Designed to dissolve the boundary between indoors and out, the home features a seamless flow to expansive outdoor living areas where nature becomes an extension of daily life. The setting is enhanced by a beautifully terraced and landscaped yard, thoughtfully planted with mature apple and pear trees, blueberry bushes, and an established perennial garden that provide color and texture throughout the seasons. Outdoor living is elevated by two private docks, offering direct access to Lake Sequoyah—perfect for paddle boarding, kayaking, fishing, or simply enjoying quiet mornings on the water. The lakefront lifestyle is peaceful, private, and deeply connected to the surrounding natural beauty. Butternut Cottage is more than a home—it is a legacy property where history, design, and landscape converge. Every detail has been intentionally preserved or elevated, resulting in a residence that feels both grounded in heritage and unmistakably refined. A truly unique opportunity to own a one-of-a-kind mountain lake retreat where craftsmanship and nature exist in perfect harmony.

Charming cottage on Big Creek which joins the larger part of Lake Sequoyah at the bridge near The Verandah. Enjoy a relaxing afternoon of kayaking or canoeing on the lake from your private dock. Located in the convenient Webbmont area of Highlands, this 3BR, 3 1/2 bath house was originally built in 1910 so it exhibits old Highlands charm, yet it has been updated several times to allow for today's comforts. The main floor features a bedroom, private bath and half bath for guests. The living room offers a wood burning, stone fireplace and overlooks the water feature, bocci court and path down to the lake. The dining room opens from the living room and adjoins the kitchen with distressed cabinets. Perhaps the best part of the house is the screened porch with a woodburning fireplace for cool evenings which leads to an open deck and steps to the ground level and path to the lake. The second level has a bedroom suite with sitting room and private bath. The third level has another private bedroom and bath for guests. You are minutes from town but far from the hustle and bustle of activity. A wonderful retreat awaits you and your guests.
