The architectural silhouette of this 2007 residence, defined by a sweeping roofline designed by Rob Carlton, presents a sophisticated study in modern engineering integrated with the Asheville landscape. This NC Healthy Built Home spans 4,233 square feet, offering five bedrooms and six bathrooms within an open-concept framework that prioritizes volume and light.
