Located in the premier gated enclave of Avery Park, just 10 minutes from South Asheville, this French Country, custom-built home strikes a delicate balance between rustic elegance and modern functionality. The design emphasizes Old World authenticity, anchored by a two-story vaulted ceiling, artisanal millwork, exposed wooden beams, wrought-iron chandeliers, and exquisite hardwood floors. Tall, paned casement windows overlook lush mountain laurel and blooming rhododendrons. A masterclass in culinary design, the chef’s kitchen boasts a massive 32-square-foot granite island, custom cabinetry, a KitchenAid Pro range, and a large walk-in pantry. The versatile floor plan features two bedrooms on the main floor—including the primary suite—and a screened-in porch with a gas fireplace. Upstairs, you'll find a truly lovely, airy family room, plenty of easily accessed storage, and two bedrooms that share a shower-tub space but have separate entrances, vanities, and water closets. For effortless peace of mind, smart home integration allows for remote monitoring of security and water management from anywhere. Avery Park residents enjoy direct access to Pisgah National Forest trails alongside community swimming and a sports court for tennis and pickleball.
