Set on 1.68 serene acres in the heart of Biltmore Forest, this distinguished brick residence, built in 1926, offers a rare opportunity to restore a timeless architectural legacy. Framed by mature trees and a deep lot that transitions to a wooded backdrop, the setting provides presence and privacy in one of Asheville’s prestigious neighborhoods. Classic proportions and original detailing reflect the refined craftsmanship of the era. A welcoming entry hall with a sweeping staircase anchors the home, while tall arched windows fill the main living spaces with natural light, highlighting hardwood floors and generous ceiling heights. A graceful side porch with arched openings evokes the romance of Southern living, and the balanced flow between formal and informal rooms speaks to enduring design. The five-bedroom, three-bath layout offers exceptional potential for thoughtful renovation, whether preserving its classical character or reimagining it for modern living. The expansive grounds invite gardens, terraces or a private outdoor retreat. This is a compelling opportunity for the visionary buyer to revive a stately home and honor the architectural heritage of Biltmore Forest. Seller is a licensed REALTOR® and the home is being sold as is.
