The kitchen blends rustic charm with function, anchored by wide counters and premium appliances, with thoughtful touches like a walk-in pantry and dedicated coffee bar. Throughout, every detail reflects a balance of artistry and livability. Life here unfolds with ease. Mornings begin with coffee overlooking the pond, afternoons invite gardening, exploration or quiet walks beneath the trees, and evenings conclude with fireflies glowing across the meadows. Practical features, including a whole-house generator, ensure resilience without compromising charm. The estate’s location—just 20 minutes from Asheville Regional Airport—offers a rare mix of seclusion and accessibility. An additional five acres are available for those seeking even greater opportunity—whether for equestrian pursuits, expanded gardens or multi-generational living. Rarely does a property so ideally capture the essence of country living while remaining so convenient to Asheville’s vibrant culture. More than a home, this is a sanctuary—an invitation to retreat, to expand and to live beautifully.
