Highlands NC Home For Sale, 225 Bowery Road
This Highlands NC home for sale, 225 Bowery Road, is nestled on four private acres just a short walk from downtown. This remarkable estate blends historic charm with modern mountain luxury. Originally part of the 30,000-acre Ravenel holdings, the property was built around 1922 by the Evins family and has since been carefully restored by builder John Underwood and reimagined by architect Sam Edgens. A gated entrance leads to a three-story mountain colonial with approximately 6,500 sq ft, featuring original oak and chestnut floors, massive stone fireplaces, handcrafted millwork, and more than 60 windows that flood the home with natural light.
Timeless craftsmanship
The interiors balance timeless craftsmanship with modern comforts, including in-floor heating on two levels, spa-inspired baths, and a chef’s kitchen with its own fireplace. Spacious gathering areas and a versatile third floor offer flexibility for a bunkroom, media room, or studio. Outdoor living is equally impressive with open and covered patios, a Rumford-style fireplace, and a heated pool with an in-ground spa. A guest cottage, additional quarters above the garage, and a whole-house generator provide both comfort and convenience.
Privacy and serenity abound
The grounds feel like a private sanctuary, complete with gardens, lawns, trails, and century-old stone walls. An activity barn offers a climbing wall, batting cage, and exercise space, while nearby trails lead to Ravenel Lake, Sunset Rock, and the heart of town. Peaceful and private yet just steps from everything Highlands NC has to offer, this estate is more than a home, it’s a legacy, beautifully preserved for its next chapter.
