Perched atop a private 25+ acre mountaintop in exclusive Highlands, North Carolina, Sagee Manor is an extraordinary estate offering 360-degree panoramic views across the Blue Ridge Mountains and into South Carolina. Approached through a private gate, stately hand laid stone arch and a landscaped one-third mile drive, the estate combines old-world elegance with refined modern luxury. Designed as a world-class mountain retreat, it offers complete privacy and breathtaking natural surroundings. At the center is a stunning manor house featuring four bedrooms, four full and four half baths, elegant formal and informal living areas, a sunlit garden room, library, family room, wine cellar, and seven fireplaces. A sleeping porch invites peaceful nights with cool mountain air. A striking post-and-beam dining pavilion with dual fireplaces and a charming guest cottage—offering three bedrooms, three baths, kitchen, and porch—enhance the estate’s entertaining potential. Outdoors, masterfully designed garden rooms and leisure spaces unfold across the landscape. The late Rosemary Verey, a renowned English landscape designer, created the cutting, herb, and vegetable gardens, complemented by native flora, meadows, and woodland trails ideal for walking or birdwatching. Amenities include a pool pavilion with heated pool, full bath and spa, croquet court framed by boxwoods, and a two-story stone overlook. A stone roundel pavilion offers sweeping views, while a tiered outdoor amphitheater invites gatherings under the stars. The estate is complete with a private helipad, lake with lake house, equipment buildings, and an on-site manager’s office to ensure seamless operations. Adjacent outparcels are available to expand the sanctuary to 49 acres. Sagee Manor is more than a home—it is a legacy estate, a mountaintop sanctuary of rare beauty and exceptional privacy.
