## Description

### Agent Description
Priced BELOW tax value = instant equity opportunity! Why buy one when you can get two living spaces for the price of one? Welcome to a Jeffrey Dungan Low Country XL-designed mountain Tiny Cottage in the gated community of The Preserve at Whiteside Cliffs with breathtaking views of Whiteside Mountain. The upper level lives like a designer home with Summit appliances, quartz countertops, Delta fixtures, 7" oak hardwood floors, cathedral ceilings, and expansive Ply Gem windows and French doors showcasing 270 panoramic views. Both bedrooms fit king beds and include built-ins plus a private deck off the main-level bedroom. Downstairs offers a true second living space with its own living area, kitchenette, bedroom, walk-in shower, and covered deck-ideal for guests, rental income, or multi-generational living. Dual Mitsubishi mini-splits provide year-round comfort. Enjoy 500+ sq ft of decking, premium cedar board-and-batten siding, shiplap walls, breakfast bar dining, combo washer/dryer, dry storage, and energy-efficient construction. Sleeps 4+ comfortably. A mountain escape and smart investment with unmatched views and built-in upside. Opportunities like this don't last-call today!
