51 Bear Shadow Ridge

4 Beds 6 Baths 1.32 Acres

Description

Perched above the clouds with front-row seats to nature's most spectacular show.

Situated inside the exclusive gates of Bear Shadow Ridge, this masterfully crafted retreat is one of only two homes offering a completely unobstructed view of Whiteside Mountain, the valley below, and the famous bi-annual "Shadow of the Bear" phenomenon. Skip the crowded public overlook--enjoy this legendary sight from the comfort of your private expansive deck or sunroom. Bear Shadow sitings are so rare they are the topic of Land Rover commercials!

Designed with quiet sophistication, the main level features rich antique hardwood floors, a true chef's kitchen, and a luxurious primary suite complete with a newly updated spa-like bath and a massive walk-in closet with dedicated laundry. Upstairs, three grand guest suites offer ample space for family, while a private bonus apartment over the three-car garage provides the ideal guest house or nanny suite.

Outdoors, enjoy beautifully landscaped, level grounds--a rare mountain find perfect for pets and outdoor living. Located conveniently between Highlands and Cashiers, you're just ten minutes from world-class dining, shopping, and premier country clubs.
