About This Home
Encompassing 4.67 acres of pristine, wooded grounds, this extraordinary Georgian estate unfolds as a private sanctuary of beauty and scale in the storied heart of Biltmore Forest. Towering hardwoods, mature landscaping, and sweeping lawns create a rare sense of seclusion and permanence, an estate setting of remarkable depth and tranquility, where nature and architecture exist in elegant harmony. Designed in 1929 by acclaimed Asheville architect Erle Stillwell, the residence stands as a masterwork of classical Georgian design and enduring craftsmanship. The stately brick façade, proportioned and rich with classical detailing, offers a timeless first impression, an architectural presence that speaks quietly yet confidently to its heritage. Inside, the home reveals interiors of uncommon refinement. Soaring ceilings, exquisite millwork and graciously scaled rooms are bathed in natural light, creating an atmosphere that is grand and inviting. Formal and informal spaces flow with symmetry and ease, honoring historic artistry while remaining beautifully suited for modern living. A magnificent formal dining room, illuminated by mullioned windows and crowned by a shimmering Waterford chandelier, provides an unforgettable setting for elegant gatherings. Multiple living and sitting rooms, each anchored by handcrafted fireplaces, offer spaces for conversation, music and quiet reflection. The private quarters are equally impressive. The main residence features nine generously proportioned bedrooms, each with its character and sense of presence. Above the garage, refined guest accommodations include three additional bedrooms, ideal for extended stays, caretakers, or multigenerational living, all while preserving privacy. Outdoors, winding drives, shaded paths, and expansive lawns invite leisurely exploration and gracious entertaining. In Biltmore Forest, a community defined by legacy and distinction, this estate is more than a residence, it is a generational offering. With its architectural pedigree, exceptional acreage,and rare sense of place, it stands as a lasting symbol of elegance, heritage and enduring refinement in one of Asheville’s revered enclaves.
