About the host
Hosted by Lei Shan Stockton
We love to travel, we love good food, and we love the outdoors. Highlands combines the wonderful qualities of fine dining, arts and music with the outdoors. The amenity for this little mountain town is unparalleled in this region. This makes it a perfect location to explore the mountains, waterfall, fishing, golfing and everything it has to offer.
Why they chose this property
We have been looking to purchase in Highlands for several years. When we saw this property, it was love at first sight. As beautiful as the house is, what we LOVE the most is the property and its surroundings. It is dynamic and ever changing. We love the beautiful garden in the summer, watching the horses throughout the day, the laurel lined street, the beautiful flowers throughout the property, and the mountain in the background. And best of the all, listening to water flowing at night while hanging out on the deck. We love just grabbing some wine and soaking in the mountain air. It is so magical!
What makes this property unique
There are several walking trails only known to locals without having to get into any cars...
This house has two huge decks that overlook the valley: whether the Arabian horses grazing, life in the community garden, or or smoke from the trees in the mountain... it is an ever-changing scenery.
Or is it:
Coffee on the dock of the ponds...
I can't decide:)
