Listing courtesy of Howard Hanna Beverly-Hanks Asheville-Biltmore Park (Gaia Goldman). Listing data provided by Canopy MLS, deemed reliable but not guaranteed.
The residential architecture of Biltmore Park serves as a refined backdrop for this 2002 traditional estate, situated within walking distance of the district’s premier dining and greenway systems. The residence spans 4,178 square feet, featuring four bedrooms and five bathrooms, several of which have been recently modernized. The interior configuration prioritizes longevity, anchored by a primary suite on the main level and an open-concept kitchen designed for significant hosting. A finished lower level provides the requisite utility for a multi-generational household, while the level rear grounds offer rare usable acreage in a region defined by steep topography. For the discerning investor, Biltmore Park remains one of Asheville’s most resilient micro-markets, consistently buoyed by its proximity to private fitness clubs and high-end retail. While the home is thoughtfully updated, the price point offers a distinct opportunity for bespoke aesthetic refinement. Private viewings may be coordinated through Peters & Associates.
