Property Description
Discover a rare opportunity to own a private 6.02-acre estate just minutes from downtown Asheville, where modern construction, natural beauty, and an exceptional connection to the land come together. Built in 2017, this custom home is approached through mature trees, flowering gardens, and across a gentle stream before opening to a light-filled interior with soaring ceilings, expansive windows, and a dramatic great room with wood-burning stove. The thoughtful floor plan offers a main-level primary suite, dedicated office, formal dining room, generous gathering spaces, and three additional bedrooms upstairs. Outdoors, an expansive stone terrace with fireplace sets the stage for entertaining, while walking trails, a 12 x 12' greenhouse, ten raised garden beds, established berries, vegetables, herbs and flowers, and a composting area create a true garden-to-table lifestyle. Tucked into the landscape, a charming garden retreat with a nearby 12 x 12' SheShed, open-air storage and separate outhouse with composting toilet offers another peaceful way to experience the property. A gentle creek, registered wetlands, open lawns, and wooded acreage extending to the ridgeline provide remarkable privacy and abundant wildlife. An unfinished walk-out lower level offers exceptional expansion potential, while whole-home water filtration, preventative radon mitigation, heated and cooled garage storage, and an EcoFlow backup battery system add modern comfort and peace of mind—a truly uncommon Asheville property designed for living, gathering, gardening, and connecting with nature.
