About This Home

Perched on 2.5 picturesque acres in the heart of Fletcher, The Meadows is one of Western North Carolina's most remarkable historic residences—a rare opportunity to own a home whose story spans more than 160 years. Built in the late 1850's, this iconic stone estate is recognized on the National Register of Historic Places and has long been known as The The Meadows Blake House, a landmark woven into the rich history of the Henderson County countryside. Constructed of locally quarried granite rubble stone in the distinguished Italianate style, the residence stands as a testament to enduring craftsmanship and architectural permanence. Its signature low hipped roof, substantial masonry construction, three interior chimneys, semi-hexagonal bay windows, and elegant veranda create a timeless silhouette unlike anything else in the region. Inside, nearly 6,000 square feet of living space offers the rare combination of historic character and generous scale. The Meadows traces its roots to the influential Blake family, whose legacy helped shape the development of this area throughout the nineteenth century. Opportunities to acquire a property of this caliber are exceptionally rare. With the home being around commercial buildings, there is opportunity to convert the home into a commercial space. With the 6 bedrooms upstairs, each could be converted into booths. The beauty of the home along with the parking lot would make for a great restaurant or potentially a Bed and Breakfast. The possibilities are endless. The Meadows is a living piece of North Carolina history—offering architectural significance, timeless beauty, and the privilege of becoming the next steward of one of Western North Carolina's most treasured residences.
