Discover unparalleled serenity with this private estate nestled on over four acres of curated gardens, open meadows and fern-covered forests. This enchanting property features a storybook conservancy, two charming guest cottages and an exquisite main residence. A stunning stone wall lines the property, ensuring privacy and creating an oasis that feels worlds apart—yet it's conveniently located 15 minutes from the heart of downtown Asheville. Situated within the prestigious gates of The Ramble, this estate offers a rare opportunity: the privacy and security of a gated community without the architectural or usage restrictions and currently no rental restrictions. The main residence is the ultimate mountain retreat, showcasing soaring post-and-beam ceilings, dramatic floor-to-ceiling stone fireplaces, an exquisite primary suite, a chef’s kitchen, five guest suites and over 2,000 square feet of outdoor living space with forest views. The main residence was meticulously renovated in 2022.
