2608 Magnolia Dr Highlands, NC 28741

Set within the coveted community of Wildcat Cliffs, this newly constructed residence represents the rare convergence of thoughtful design, timeless craftsmanship, and a pristine natural setting. Designed by the Pradera Group’s Mike Wadsworth and elegantly appointed by designer Kristin Wadsworth, the home offers a refined and effortless lifestyle in one of the Plateau’s most sought-after private clubs. Privately positioned on a lush 0.82-acre homesite framed by native rhododendron and mountain laurel, the home is a study in balance-equally suited for a quiet retreat or gracious entertaining. The main level features a vaulted great room with a dramatic stone fireplace, a sunlit dining area, and a chef’s kitchen designed for both beauty and function. Anchored by a bold stone island, the kitchen features professional-grade appliances and custom cabinetry, while a shiplap-wrapped range hood and natural wood accents lend warmth and character. A nearby wet bar with wine refrigeration adds ease to hosting and everyday living. The primary suite, located on the main level, is a private sanctuary-complete with a spa-like bath and access to a screened sleeping porch. On the lower level, two guest suites, a secondary living space, a dedicated office, and a fitness room provide privacy and versatility for extended family and guests. Seamless transitions to the outdoors include a covered terrace with a second fireplace, inviting year-round enjoyment in a mountain climate known for its cool summer breezes. From yoga on the porch to a soak in the freestanding tub, every detail of this home is designed to support rest, wellness, and connection. Wildcat Cliffs Country Club, where membership conveys with the property, offers a suite of world-class amenities, including championship golf, dining, fitness, and an active social calendar. More than new construction, this is a carefully crafted experience—delivering elevated living in one of the Highlands-Cashiers Plateau’s most revered communities.
