723 Ascension Valley #27, Horse Shoe, NC

The architectural narrative of Horse Shoe is currently undergoing a quiet evolution, moving away from rustic tradition toward a disciplined, contemporary aesthetic. This 3,189-square-foot residence, scheduled for completion in 2026, exemplifies this shift through a design language of high ceilings, natural light, and clean lines. Set upon 1.15 acres, the property accommodates three bedrooms and four bathrooms, balanced by functional necessities such as a walk-in pantry and an expansive three-car garage. While the site offers the immediate privacy of the mountains and proximity to the French Broad River, it remains remarkably connected to the high-end retail and dining corridors of Biltmore Park. For the discerning investor, this submarket represents an increasingly rare intersection of significant acreage and proximity to Asheville’s cultural hubs, a combination that historically maintains its resilience. This offering provides a sophisticated foothold in the Blue Ridge foothills for those prioritizing modern infrastructure and deliberate craftsmanship. Private inquiries and site visits may be arranged through Peters & Associates.
