The historic "Herbert Brown House" stands as one of Biltmore Forest's most notable gems. In 1927, the Browns commissioned renowned architect Erle Stillwell to design their residence after a house they had seen in Rueil, France. Stunning original details include intricate custom moulding, herringbone floors, hand-carved imported marble mantels, and multiple French doors with ornate brass hardware. Four upstairs bedrooms and additional wing with two smaller quarters. Famed landscape architect Chauncey Beadle himself designed the gardens.
This beloved estate has remained in the Brown family for nearly 100 years and will now be turned over to stewards who are sure to preserve it for ages to come.
