The historical 131-acre Burt Farm Estate is a true legacy property in Cashiers, North Carolina. It was first settled by the Zachary family, one of the founding families of the Highlands-Cashiers Plateau. The property is an idyllic setting of rolling meadows filled with wildflowers, bubbling creeks, flowing streams, sparkling ponds and an abundance of native shrubs and mature trees.
The nearly level drive meanders to the stately 1880s main residence with its generous indoor and outdoor living spaces.
Overlooking lush green lawns and colorful plantings, the spacious covered porch is a relaxing spot for sunset cocktails with friends. The estate also features a separate house for a caretaker or guests.
The back of the property gently climbs in elevation and is suitable for being subdivided or building additional homes or cottages.
Burt Farm is the Cashiers Historical Society’s 2016 Designer Showhouse.
The home has three fireplaces with wood floors and substantial beamed ceilings on the main floor.
The extensive remodeling includes all baths a completely new kitchen with Viking appliances, and brand new roofs on the house and garage.
This striking and substantial legacy estate is listed with Silver Creek Real Estate Group for $4.9 million and is showcased by Luxury Portfolio.
