Tucked into the heart of Cashiers, this lovingly maintained and thoughtfully updated 1950s bungalow offers one of the rarest combinations on the Plateau: in-town convenience paired with a distinctly private setting. Set on 0.43 acres within the Lancewood community, the two-bedroom, two-bathroom residence is surrounded by lush native foliage, creating a secluded, tucked-away feel while keeping you remarkably close to the very best of village life. From the large front deck, partially covered for year-round enjoyment, mornings begin with coffee in the mountain air and evenings often carry the familiar sound of church bells drifting through town. Inside, the home opens to an easy, inviting flow between the living, kitchen, and dining areas - comfortable for everyday living and equally suited to weekend guests. Lovingly maintained over the years, the home has been thoughtfully updated and expanded while preserving the warmth and character that give a classic mountain cottage its lasting appeal. A finished and plumbed shed offers flexible bonus space for a studio, office, or overflow retreat, while enclosed storage beneath the deck adds practical utility. Location is the defining feature here. Leave the car behind and enjoy convenient access to many of Cashiers' most loved everyday destinations, including Cornucopia Restaurant, Village Pantry, and On The Side BBQ at the Cashiers Farmers Market. Just moments away, The Village Green brings year-round enjoyment with concerts, seasonal events, community gatherings, and open green space right in the center of town. Beyond the immediate convenience of village life, you are also just a short drive from the dining, shopping, and cultural appeal of Highlands, as well as the boating, paddling, fishing, and lakeside recreation in nearby Glenville. For buyers who value privacy without giving up proximity, this is a rare opportunity to own a true in-town Cashiers cottage - full of character, quietly tucked away, and exceptionally well-positioned.
