Highlands sits at about 4,100 feet on the plateau of western North Carolina, and houses in this range include mountain cottages and cabins near Main Street, homes on wooded lots in established neighborhoods and some homes with long range mountain views. The town's shops, restaurants and galleries draw summer residents, and the Nantahala National Forest, Sunset Rock and the waterfalls along US 64 are close by. Cooler summer temperatures make Highlands a popular second home destination. This search lists every single-family house in Highlands listed at $2,000,000 or below.
