Designer Cottages® announced the opening of the The Preserve at Whiteside Cliffs, a tiny home community located in Highlands, NC.

The Preserve at Whiteside Cliffs offers the turnkey, modular floor plans that Designer Cottages® is known for, including land packages for 47 lots across 33 acres. The homes are nestled amongst streams, waterfalls, mountain views and deep lakes on the Highlands-Cashiers plateau. The Designer Cottages® brand provides luxury second homes and vacation homes that embrace a minimalist, attainable lifestyle without sacrificing style or comfort. Engel & Völkers Highlands Cashiers, formerly known as Old Cashiers Realty, is the exclusive listing agency for Black Rock, LLC (DBA, The Preserve at Whiteside Cliffs).

Designer Cottages® floor plans are inspired by nature. Large windows offer abundant natural light and 270-degree views, seamlessly welcoming the outdoors in. Hiking trails and waterfalls surround the cottages, as the sounds of Norton Mill Creek meandering throughout the 33-acre property offer tranquility and escape from the hustle and bustle of city life. The Preserve at Whiteside Cliffs is best described as remote, stylish living in a peaceful, outdoor oasis.

“The luxurious cottages of The Preserve at Whiteside Cliffs offer the perfect retreat for people across the world looking for an upscale mountain getaway with a cozy floor plan,” said Jim Greer, national brand manager of Designer Cottages®. “This exclusive community offers home buyers comfort, privacy and relaxation, with an emphasis on both indoor and outdoor living spaces.”

In addition to the stunning views of the famous Whiteside Mountain, The Preserve at Whiteside Cliffs’ tiny community offers on-site management, a secured gated entrance, landscaping, trails and streams maintenance, electric car charging stations, fiber-optic internet technology, community fire pits and more. Homeowners also have the flexibility to offer their vacation home as a unique rental property, without restrictions. This vacation spot is located an hour and a half from Asheville, NC and three hours from Charlotte, NC and Atlanta, GA. Land and home packages start at $299,000, compared to the median list price of $650,000 in the Highlands area.

“This is understandably an unprecedented time for home buyers, and we remain dedicated to providing our customers with flexible options and online shopping tools to seek the perfect floor plan that fits their unique lifestyles,” said Grace and Mark Battle, co-owners of Engel & Völkers Highlands Cashiers and The Preserve at Whiteside Cliffs. “Now more than ever, families are recognizing the importance of having a home that provides safety, security, comfort and seclusion – the ultimate luxury.”
