Atop one of the most distinguished ridge lines in Biltmore Forest, 324 Vanderbilt Road is a landmark estate of remarkable provenance, scale and architectural significance. Known as New Gunston Hall, the residence was completed in 1923 as one of the first homes ever built in Biltmore Forest and remains among the community’s iconic properties. Inspired by the historic Gunston Hall in Virginia and designed by renowned architect Waddy Butler Wood, the Colonial Revival estate is listed on the National Register of Historic Places and represents a level of craftsmanship and permanence rarely seen today. Behind its gated entrance, more than 11 acres unfold with a level of privacy, scale and presence rarely found so close to Biltmore Village and downtown Asheville, creating an extraordinary sense of arrival while remaining moments from the city’s premier dining, shopping and cultural amenities. Constructed with enduring materials including Flemish bond brickwork and slate roofing, the home spans approximately 8,688 square feet and balances historic grandeur with refined livability. Extensive renovations completed between 2013 and 2016 thoughtfully preserved the architectural integrity of the residence while incorporating modern systems, updated infrastructure and elevated finishes throughout. Rich millwork, elegant formal spaces, a distinguished library and meticulously restored details reflect the craftsmanship of another era, while the scale and flow of the home create an environment equally suited for intimate daily living and large-scale entertaining.

Properties of this caliber and historical significance rarely become available, particularly within Biltmore Forest. New Gunston Hall is more than a home, it is a legacy estate with an irreplaceable place in Asheville’s architectural history.

(Accepting back up offers.) At 176 E Chestnut Street, historic grandeur and a nearly unbeatable location are yours. In fact, the history of Asheville itself is intertwined with this home. J.M. Westall, Thomas Wolfe's uncle, built this Grand Colonial Revival home in 1905 for William R. Whitson, a local lawyer. Word has it that Thomas Wolfe and Whitson's eldest son were thick as thieves back then. More recently the property has been The Chestnut Street Inn. The home, with its pressed brick exterior, brick quoining around its windows and some of the finest woodwork in the neighborhood, is a pillar of the Chestnut-Liberty Historic District. Although, between the gardens, the shady spots to relax and porches that are to die for, no one would blame you if you never even made it inside. But you will. And as you enter you'll be greeted by the main hallway and one of the home's masterpieces, the closed stringer stairway which ascends from a bowed landing with a courting bench at its base. Other decorative touches such as the raised panel wainscoting, milled mantels and a special sideboard piece made from tiger oak, which every owner has passed down and will stay with the home, are magical. More than just form, functionality and optionality also abound. There are three levels of living each with a possible primary suite and, with a total of seven bedrooms each with an en suite bathroom, comfortable space for family and friends is definitely available. A multi zoned system helps keep an ideal temperature year round while eight fireplaces ooze charm from days bygone. Let's talk about lifestyle. Heading out your front door for a stroll, if you go left you'll be at multiple restaurants, City Bakery, The Chop Shop Butchery or pilates within five minutes. If you go right you can be at Liberty House Cafe and Asheville Yoga Center in four minutes or Trader Joe's in another two minutes. This is all without a car, mind you. If you head south down Central Avenue you'll be in Downtown Asheville in around twelve minutes with all the amazing shops, art galleries, breweries, restaurants and art deco architecture sparkling before you. If it’s golf, tennis or pickleball you seek, there are multiple clubs nearby. Great schools and parks are also in close proximity or if you're in the mood for nature, hop on a bike or get in your car to find a nearby trail as the Blue Ridge Mountains provide countless opportunities to unplug. This remarkable property is being sold as a single family home or, if interested, could be sold as a bed & breakfast. Please reach out for more details and book your showing today.
