Years of love & hard work have turned 13 acres into a magical mountain home surrounded by lovely gardens that include a bounty of perennials, several specimens of Japanese Maples & unique conifers. This home & separate guest quarters were designed by noted architect Bill Ashe. The many outdoor spaces allow for the enjoyment of nature, including a high in the air treehouse accessible by a walkway from the house. It's a favorite place to spend time with friends. Large windows bring light into the house and allow you to feel a part of the outside. Vaulted ceilings, wood floors, exposed timber framing harvested from the property, & the many built-ins make this home a one of a kind. There are several multi-purpose rooms that would be great for those who work from home, for an artist or craftsman's studio, or to develop into additional bedrooms. It's a lovely drive along Elk Mountain Scenic Highway to this private enclave just minutes to North Asheville, Downtown Asheville or the Parkway.
