Property Description

Spanning more than four acres of curated gardens, open meadows and fern-covered forest, this exceptional estate captures the beauty and tranquility of mountain living in a setting all its own. A stunning stone wall lines the property, creating a secluded oasis that feels worlds apart, yet downtown Asheville is just 15 minutes away. Within the grounds, a storybook conservatory and greenhouse, two charming guest cottages and an exquisite main residence come together to create a distinctive mountain retreat. Within the prestigious gates of The Ramble, the estate enjoys the privacy and security of a gated community while offering something exceptionally rare, such as no architectural or usage restrictions and no rental restrictions. Meticulously renovated in 2022, the main residence pairs timeless mountain architecture with thoughtful, elevated finishes. Soaring post-and-beam ceilings and dramatic floor-to-ceiling stone fireplaces define the interiors, while expansive windows frame the surrounding forest and gardens. The chef’s kitchen is designed for gathering and entertaining, featuring double islands and its gas fireplace. The stunning primary suite offers a retreat of its own, complete with a fireplace and private screened patio with a second fireplace overlooking the surrounding landscape. Five guest suites provide exceptional accommodations for family and guests, while more than 2,000 square feet of outdoor living space creates a seamless connection to the estate’s natural setting. From its remarkable grounds and multiple residences to its desired location, this is an exceptional Asheville estate offering privacy, flexibility and a setting that is difficult to replicate. Experience unparalleled serenity with this private estate.
