About the Property

Sagee Manor, a luxurious manor estate completed in 2001, is majestically perched atop a private 25+ acre mountaintop in the exclusive town of Highlands, North Carolina. This singular property offers unparalleled 360-degree panoramic views of the Blue Ridge Mountains and into South Carolina, creating an awe-inspiring natural amphitheater. The estate encompasses approximately 104,900 square meters, providing a serene retreat just a short distance from urban centers. Designed as a sophisticated mountain retreat, Sagee Manor harmoniously blends old-world charm with modern luxury. The heart of the estate features a magnificent manor house, meticulously appointed with four luxurious bedrooms and eleven baths, including four full and four half baths. The interior boasts a main hall, elegant sitting and dining rooms, a light-filled garden room, a richly appointed library, an inviting family room, and a wine cellar for the discerning connoisseur. Seven fireplaces throughout the home provide warmth and ambiance, while a sleeping porch allows for restful nights amidst the mountain breezes. The estate also includes a striking post and beam dining pavilion, crowned by dual stone fireplaces, and a charming guest cottage offering three bedrooms, three baths, a fireplace, a welcoming porch, and a fully equipped kitchen. Outdoors, the property unfolds into masterfully designed garden rooms and leisure spaces, curated by the renowned late Rosemary Verey, featuring cutting, herb, and vegetable gardens alongside native flora. The landscape includes a rock garden, upper and lower meadows, and woodlands abundant with rare native plants and groomed trails, ideal for contemplative walks or vibrant birdwatching. Recreational amenities abound, including a pool pavilion with a heated pool, full bath, and spa, inviting sunny afternoons. A croquet court framed by formal boxwood hedges and antique stone niches recalls genteel traditions. The stone roundel pavilion offers sublime views across state lines, while a two-story native stone overlook provides yet another vantage point. For special gatherings, a tiered gala amphitheater awaits beneath the stars, and a boutique lake with its own lake house adds to the property’s charm.
