A grand covered 65 foot long marble porch with three fans that adjoins the impressive stone patio and pool area with views to the tennis court, provides a tranquil setting. Invisible fence surrounds most of the property, while much of the back is enclosed by chain-link fencing. This fabulous home, bordering the famous Biltmore Estate, features six bedrooms and six baths, including two, three-room suites with outside and inside access, each comprised of a living room, bedroom and bath.

An adjoining heated sunroom with glass ceiling and walls and outside access doubles as a greenhouse for wintering plants. The kitchen features custom-built cabinets, granite countertops, double ovens, a 6-by-6-foot quartz-topped island and an eating nook recessed in a bay window overlooking a garden. The oak paneled great room showcasing two antique chandeliers from Asheville's historic Battery Park Hotel, boasts soaring ceilings with wood beams, billiards area and wet bar. The large wood-burning stone fireplace that opens through to serve the immense dining room creates a timeless sense of grandeur. An adjacent cozy den with gas fireplace and bookcases offers a quiet retreat. A 700-square-foot office upstairs ensures quiet and privacy, while the smaller downstairs office offers convenience. Custom built-ins abound throughout this house set far back from the street and overlooking a manicured lawn with lush landscaping.
