35 Peach Knob Drive, Asheville, NC

Elevation and perspective define this 1990 estate, situated to capture expansive, layered views of the Blue Ridge Mountains from a private five-acre vantage point. The residence spans 7,297 square feet, offering four bedrooms and seven bathrooms within a floor plan that prioritizes architectural transparency through extensive glass walls. The interiors have been recently refreshed, integrating a chef’s kitchen with specialized amenities including a wine room and a billiards area. A dedicated second-floor primary suite serves as a self-contained retreat, featuring a private study, exercise room, and personal decks. The grounds are engineered for wellness and hosting, anchored by a resort-style pool, spa, and sauna. In the current Asheville luxury climate, properties that successfully balance significant acreage with proximity to downtown services remain the most resilient assets. This estate represents a rare convergence of scale and meticulous maintenance in a high-demand corridor. Private viewings may be arranged through Peters & Associates.

About the home

Commanding one of Asheville’s most awe-inspiring mountain panoramas, this extraordinary private estate offers over 7,000 square feet of dramatic architecture, refined craftsmanship, and beautifully curated interiors—set on approximately 5 acres that blend thoughtfully landscaped spaces with peaceful, natural woodland. Recently refreshed and meticulously maintained, it delivers a rare combination of sophistication, comfort, and enduring quality. Walls of glass frame sweeping, layered Blue Ridge vistas, while expansive wraparound decks invite connection, celebration, and quiet reflection in every season. A resort-style pool and spa, hot tub, and sauna create an outdoor sanctuary designed for both everyday relaxation and unforgettable entertaining. Inside, the chef’s kitchen anchors the home with beauty and function, complemented by a wine room, billiards room, and generous gathering spaces ideal for both intimate evenings and grand occasions. The entire second-floor primary suite feels like a private retreat, complete with a fireplace, exercise room, wet bar, laundry room, private decks, and a richly appointed study—an indulgent escape with exceptional privacy. An elevator, a whole-house generator, adds ease, security, and everyday practicality. Three-car garage on the main level and a one-car garage in the basement with workshop/storage is a bonus. Perfectly positioned just minutes from downtown Asheville’s renowned dining, galleries, theater, boutique shopping, and the iconic Grove Park Inn—and moments from the scenic beauty and adventure of the Blue Ridge Parkway—this is more than a residence. It is a lifestyle, an experience, and a rare opportunity to live at the pinnacle of Asheville’s mountain living.
