About this property

Downtown Highlands - Walk Everywhere

Welcome to Highlands, North Carolina! If you're looking for a VRBO that is walking distance to most everything, then look no further. Lose yourself in the luxury and sophistication that Highlands has long been known for as a guest at our apartment.

Light and bright, the open concept creates a cozy yet spacious experience where you can relax or entertain in a modern meets rustic setting. Features include a fully equipped kitchen with gas range and granite counter tops, office nook for a working vacation, oak floors in the living area, laundry room with iron/ironing board, two porches and private parking for two vehicles.

In addition to the king size bed in the bedroom, we also have an EZ Bed Air Mattress elevated on legs with a cozy mattress topper for an additional 1-2 guests that can be set up in the living area, if needed.

A fun fact; the living area was once the dining hall of an old estate home situated above Founders Park. The pulley windows and coffered ceilings bring in the old Highlands character that is now hard to find. The apartment is on the second floor of a two story building, located above our Green Mountain Builders office.

As transplants to the area, we understand how easy it is to fall in love with Highlands and the surrounding area. As a real estate broker and builder, we are happy to help should you decide it's time for your own slice of paradise.

Please feel free to contact us with any questions regarding our rental, things to do in Highlands or about the area in general!

Great location
This house is in a great location within a 5 minute stroll from downtown and two minutes to the best breakfast in Highlands at the Blue Bike. The apartment is really cute and comfortable but starting to show its age a bit with some older appliances and fixtures. It wasn’t a problem for us but if you like to sleep in you may be a bit bothered by some of the early morning road noise and activity at the gas station next door.

We adore this place and will be back again next year. By now it feels like home and we are so happy we found it! The size, the location, and the comfort are all important to us, and Mary is delightful to work with.

About the host

Hosted by Mary Abranyi

Host profile image
We moved to the area in 2001 and have since become established in both the Highlands and Cashiers communities professionally as a Realtor (Mary with Berkshire Hathaway) and a builder (Steve with Green Mountain Builders). Originally from Florida, it was easy to acclimate to the cooler summer temperatures and appreciate the fall colors. We have two school aged children, two golden retrievers and two cats. In addition to real estate and building, we also have a yoga and wellness center in Cashiers (Fusion Yoga and Wellness).

Why they chose this property

We purchased this property in 2007 when we were looking for office space for our businesses. The fact that there was an apartment upstairs was an absolute bonus. After some renovations, we initially rented the apartment out on a long-term basis for the first several years but decided to make the switch to vacation rentals and have been glad we did so. It's been a great place for family, friends and clients to stay when it's not rented.

What makes this property unique

The homey feel and close proximity to Main Street are two of our favorite/unique benefits.
