## Description

### Agent Description
Situated in one of the most coveted commercial corridors in the heart of Highlands, this prime retail offering presents a rare opportunity to acquire over 3,000 square feet of highly visible shop space just steps from Main Street. Positioned amid the town's most vibrant boutiques, restaurants, and foot traffic, the location benefits from exceptional walkability and enduring demand. The property is currently home to the beloved Highland Hatter, a long-standing and well-recognized business whose existing lease adds immediate income stability and enhanced investment value. This established tenancy underscores the strength of the location while offering an investor the appeal of a proven retail environment in one of Western North Carolina's most prestigious mountain towns. Whether held as a long-term income property or envisioned as a cornerstone asset within a curated commercial portfolio, this offering combines location, scale, and legacy.
