Every detail reflects intentional craftsmanship and enduring style. Outdoors, multiple living areas invite both intimate gatherings and grand entertaining. Enjoy an expansive lawn framed by lush gardens, a stately front porch of Ipe wood, and custom ironwork gates leading to an enchanted alfresco dining area. An extensive private back patio offers the perfect setting for relaxing or entertaining amid a serene, park-like backdrop. With county-only taxes and no short-term rental restrictions, this South Asheville estate offers an exceptional opportunity as a primary residence or luxury investment property.
