Property Description
Discover a rare opportunity to own a private 6.24-acre estate just minutes from downtown Asheville, where modern construction, natural beauty and exceptional flexibility come together. Built in 2017, this custom home welcomes you through mature trees, flowering gardens and across a gentle stream to a light-filled interior with soaring ceilings, expansive windows and a dramatic great room with wood-burning stove. The thoughtful floor plan offers a main-level primary suite, dedicated office, formal dining room, generous gathering spaces and three additional bedrooms upstairs. A full unfinished walkout basement provides outstanding potential to add significant living space, while a separate heated and cooled workshop, not included in the home’s reported square footage, offers an incredible year-round space for projects, woodworking or creative pursuits. The garage also features two electric vehicle chargers. Outside, an expansive stone terrace with fireplace is ideal for gathering, while trails, a 12-by-12-foot greenhouse, 10 raised garden beds, established berries, vegetables, herbs and flowers create a gardener’s dream. Tucked into the landscape, the beautifully finished detached studio offers an inspiring space for an artist’s studio, yoga room, hobby space, playroom or quiet retreat. A gentle creek, wetlands, open lawns and wooded acreage extending to the ridgeline provide privacy, room to explore and abundant wildlife. Whole-home water filtration, preventative radon mitigation and an EcoFlow backup battery system add modern comfort and peace of mind. This uncommon Asheville property offers room to live, create, gather, garden and grow.
