About This Home

There is a warm, inviting grace to this Grove Park home that feels like a quiet sanctuary. It strikes a rare, beautiful balance: the character of a classic Asheville residence preserved with a refined aesthetic that feels both timeless and remarkably fresh. The defining characteristic here is the way the light follows you. Gracious, oversized windows are found in every room, acting as a primary design element that pulls the surrounding greenery into the living spaces. From the stunning foyer to the sophisticated living room, the home reveals itself as both significant and very approachable. The large dining room is scaled for gatherings, while the modern kitchen and open concept breakfast area offer a high-functioning hub for busy mornings. You even have the luxury of a dedicated laundry room, a modern necessity that is a total rarity for a home of this vintage. What truly distinguishes the property is how the multi-level addition has been seamlessly integrated into the original architecture. It doesn't feel like an afterthought; it feels like a natural evolution of the home’s footprint. The rooftop living space is an incredible open-air retreat perched among the treetops, offering a vantage point that is both peaceful and panoramic. Below, the garden-level second living room defies every "basement" cliché; with a full wall of windows looking out onto the grounds, it serves as a sun-drenched open space for recreation or a quiet home office. With five bedrooms and 3.5 baths, there is a sense of scale here that is hard to find. The detached garage, accessible via a convenient back alley, features an upper level perfect for a workshop or creative studio. 18 Edgemont isn’t just a well-maintained historic home; it is a property that has been loved forward, balancing the character of old Asheville with the light and flow of a modern lifestyle.
