VIDEO AVAILABLE. CALL LISTING AGENT. Affectionately known as “The Queen of Asheville,” this extraordinary home by renowned architect Scott Huebner sits at one of Asheville’s highest points, offering breathtaking panoramic long-range mountain views of downtown Asheville, the French Broad River, and surrounding mountains. Located on a quiet street and offered with the adjoining lot to the left, this is a rare opportunity to own a landmark property with privacy, presence, and some of Asheville’s most dramatic views.
Built 8 years ago as a forever home, every detail reflects exceptional craftsmanship, thoughtful design, and uncompromising quality. The quarter-sawn red oak floors and staircase were milled from trees removed from the property during construction, creating a meaningful connection between the home and its surroundings. Luxury finishes include Italian tile, Italian and Portuguese cabinetry, quartz and Silestone countertops, a Verona gas range, custom statement lighting, and expansive windows designed to frame the views from nearly every room.
The experience begins at the custom Corten steel gate, opening to a remarkable front terrace with views so memorable that the space has hosted intimate wedding ceremonies. Step through the glass entry door and the Asheville skyline immediately becomes the focal point. Even the garage entrance was carefully designed so the views reveal themselves through the kitchen the moment you arrive.
The open main level brings the kitchen, dining, and living areas together beneath walls of glass, allowing the architecture and scenery to work in harmony. At one end, the chef’s kitchen features European cabinetry, a Verona gas range, quartz and Silestone surfaces, and a beautifully appointed butler’s pantry with stonework coordinated with the powder room. At the opposite end, a striking Corten steel-faced fireplace incorporates the same Italian tile used in the kitchen, creating a cohesive architectural statement. A spacious deck extends the living area outdoors for morning coffee, sunset gatherings, and evenings overlooking the city lights.
The primary suite is a private retreat with sweeping views, a spa-inspired bath, and beautifully designed storage. The wet room combines a soaking tub, walk-in shower, and built-in bench within one beautifully tiled space. A floating double vanity with Portuguese cabinetry adds to the clean, elevated design, while a private water closet provides privacy. The custom-finished walk-in closet is a destination of its own, ending with a window framing an unforgettable view of downtown Asheville. Directly across is the laundry closet with washer and dryer, making the suite both luxurious and exceptionally functional.
The lower level offers two additional bedrooms, generous storage, a second spacious living area, and another expansive deck. The central living space is positioned to enjoy the views and offers a comfortable gathering area for guests, movie nights, or quiet evenings at home. Decks on every level, the home provides countless places to relax, entertain, or take in the ever-changing skyline, river, and mountain scenery.
Every room, and outdoor space was intentionally designed around the view. From the front terrace and glass entry to the kitchen, living room, primary suite, and even the walk-in closet, the visual connection to Asheville is extraordinary. Haywood Road’s restaurants and the River Arts District are just 3 minutes away, with downtown Asheville approximately 7 minutes by car.
Many properties are described as one of a kind. This one truly is. Known by neighbors and passersby as “The Queen of Asheville,” this remarkable home combines bold architecture, European finishes, meaningful craftsmanship, and views that may never be duplicated. This is your opportunity to own one of Asheville’s crown jewels. Proof of funds or Preapproval required for showings, thanks. Listing Agent will be present. Please be sure to watch the video.
