About the home
Perched in the hills above the Grove Park Inn and minutes from downtown Asheville, this Old World-inspired residence offers a private retreat designed for gracious living and memorable entertaining. A stone terrace welcomes you to interiors distinguished by elaborate millwork, 10-foot ceilings, wide-plank oak floors, a dramatic floating staircase and refined finishes throughout. The chef’s kitchen features a generous island, granite counters, premium appliances, walk-in pantry and butler’s pantry with wine storage. Thoughtfully designed for main-level living, additional conveniences include a spacious laundry, private sauna, dining room, and an impressive primary suite with vaulted ceilings, see-through fireplace, and spa-like bath with garden tub and stone shower. Three additional en-suite bedrooms provide exceptional guest accommodations upstairs. A billiards room with wet bar and multiple family rooms with fireplaces extend the entertaining space, while an elevator connects the garage to every level. Outside, covered balconies, stone patios and mature landscaping create intimate gathering spaces centered around an outdoor kitchen, pizza oven and wood-burning fireplace, an exceptional setting for the ultimate Asheville mountain lifestyle.
