Affectionately referred to as The Plateau, the greater Cashiers-Highlands area is an exclusive destination atop the Blue Ridge Mountains of western North Carolina. The area is comprised of Cashiers, Highlands, Sapphire, Sapphire Valley, Lake Glenville and Lake Toxaway. Renowned for its temperate climate and pristine nature, visitors come from all over the world to the Plateau, seeking a summer retreat and a high-altitude escape from urban life.

Renowned for its temperate climate and pristine nature, visitors come from all over the world to the Plateau, seeking a summer retreat and a high-altitude escape from urban life.

While the summer season is the busiest on the Plateau, large crowds are drawn each autumn to witness the changing of the leaves. This brilliantly colorful, natural phenomena is accented by such events as the Cashiers Valley Leaf Festival, featuring live music and local artisans. The Plateau has also become an iconic destination for Thanksgiving and Christmas. At these times of year, the Plateau becomes a winter wonderland in the mountains, with its many Christmas tree farms. The Holiday cheer in the mountains brings families and friends together around wood-burning, stone fireplaces amidst the peace and quiet of the mountain wilderness.

9


In recent years, the mountain chic lifestyle and the region’s friendly atmosphere has lured more part-time and full-time residents to the region. Top class dining, upmarket shopping and numerous arts and culture venues offer residents of the Plateau all of the amenities of life at sea level, all the while providing uncompromising access to National Parks, hiking trails, lakes and waterfalls.

A typical morning in the mountains begins at a relaxed pace with a hot cup of coffee or tea, enjoyed from the comfort of a heated back porch overlooking the sun-glazed mist floating over a tree-lined valley. For those looking for a more crafted start to the day, simply drive into town to Buck’s Coffee. With locations in Cashiers and Highlands, Buck’s is the premier coffee shop on the Plateau, whose baristas are ready to serve you the beverage of your choice just to your liking.

always use a REALTOR written by wanda klodosky

There are many situations in life where you seek out professional advice. Why would you not seek a professional when making one of the biggest and possibly most expensive decisions you will undertake. A professional, experienced Realtor will have many hours of education and experience to help guide you through the home buying or selling experience. One of the main things a real estate professional will do is educate you rather than simply sell. They will explain each step thoroughly to help you understand the hows and whys of the many decisions you will need to make in a transaction. While getting this education, it’s important to still value and listen to the advice of the ‘teacher’. An individual will be involved in an average of 3 - 5 real estate transactions in their lifetime. A professional agent can be involved in that many transactions in a month. Go with the expertise. Realtors are marketing experts when it comes to having a home in peak condition to put on the market. If the Realtor doesn’t have the ‘eye’ to tell you how to stage your home, they will have experts they can call upon to assist. A professional Realtor will work with the best supporting cast available to ready and market your home. More and more, first impressions are made before a buyer walks into a home. The talented and professional photographer is one of the Realtor’s biggest assets. The individual or company website is key to this marketing performance as well. Market and area knowledge are key factors in the Realtor’s arsenal of talents. These factors are important in all markets, but are crucial in the Highlands/Cashiers Plateau market. Professionals who have worked and taught in other markets and areas are constantly amazed at the uniqueness and ‘quirks’ of our local market. This portion of the Realtor’s importance can’t be stressed enough in our market as not only is the market unique, usually neither the sellers or buyers are

‘full-time’ residents. Negotiation ability. While not really a stand alone sentence, it is one of the other key talents you get and should expect from your Realtor. Your experience in negotiations normally take place in other fields. If you are a good negotiator in your chosen field, then you, more than others should realize that the overall knowledge of a product, situation and market are keys to a successful negotiation. A true professional Realtor knows that each step in the process involves negotiation. Coming to an agreement on price, who takes care of what portion of the repairs, when will you close, what about the furniture, there are multiple areas of negotiation in a real estate transaction. You need an expert negotiator on your side. A key reason in using a professional Realtor is their ability to handle stressful situations and encounters. It would be outstanding if each and every real estate deal was sunshine, roses and hugs throught the entire process. However, this is not always the case. With the larger rewards and dollar amounts involved, the potential for disagreement between parties excellerates. Having that professional who can maintain their perspective and keep the parties ‘on course’ is crucial to a successful transaction. There are several other key factors for chosing and using a professional Realtor, one being the long hours and overall efforts they work on your behalf. How many of you have called your Realtor after normal working hours and had them take care of your individual needs or situation. One of the outstanding results from these hours of searching, marketing, negotiating and calming is that you will often maintain a relationship with a strong professional Realtor for years. They don’t close the file and flip the switch when the deal is done.

Market and area knowledge are key factors in the Realtor’s arsenal of talents. These factors are important in all markets, but are crucial in the Highlands/ Cashiers Plateau market.

Anyone who lives in or visits the area falls under its spell. The air feels fresher. The skies seem bluer. The stars appear brighter. Music sounds better. Food is tastier. People are friendlier. Spirits rise higher. All is well with the world when you plant your feet on the Plateau and Valley. There are a thousand things to do all year round in our neck of the woods. If you are an outdoors person, hiking, white-water rafting, swimming, canoeing, ziplining, picnicking, waterfall watching, winter tubing and skiing provide as much wow as mind, body and spirit can handle. That’s why folks come back again and again to dive in where they left off.

If your quest for adventure leads you indoors, there are plenty of inside entertainments to inspire you. The Bascom, a Center for the Visual Arts in Highlands features workshops in everything from clay to basketry to sculpture to painting. It exhibits world-class works by the masters. And it has a marvelous sculpture garden along a nature trail. There are dozens of other galleries in the area, filled with work of Appalachian crafts-persons in the company of artists from around the country. The Plateau is a visual extravaganza of eye-popping art. If music is your heart’s desire, Western Carolina’s summer nights and weekends are jam-packed with live performances. Entertainment is usually free and often set in an under-the-stars, downhome, kick-your-shoes-off atmosphere. Many bars and restaurants serve up music alongside their platters of award-winning specialties. For those who favor black tie events, there are plenty of classical music ops, not to mention concerts and art films at Highlands Performing Art Center. Should you need more drama in your life (the good kind) Highlands Playhouse, HighlandsCashiers Players, dinner theater events, and other theatrical productions have a huge following in the area.
