Live in your own resort, enjoying a heated deep swimming pool with slide and diving board, tennis and pickleball courts, basketball practice area, gym and steam bath on two acres showcasing a stone outdoor kitchen, water feature with fish pond, while surrounded by six perennial gardens, apple, pear, and cherry trees and stands of blueberry and raspberry bushes. A grand covered 65-foot long marble porch with three fans that adjoins the impressive stone patio and pool area, with its views to the tennis court, provides a tranquil setting. Invisible fence surrounds most of the property, while much of the back is enclosed by chain-link fencing. This fabulous home, bordering the famous Biltmore Estate, features six bedrooms and six baths, including two, three-room suites with outside and inside access, each comprised of a living room, bedroom and bath. Four bedrooms and baths on the main floor include the primary bedroom suite with its three large walk-in closets, one 17-foot-long by 8-foot-wide spacious dressing room with semi-sunken oversized tub, two counters with sinks, dressing table, large skylight, instant hot water, plus a separate water closet with steam bath/shower. An adjoining heated sunroom with glass ceiling and walls has outside access and doubles as a greenhouse for wintering plants. The kitchen features custom-built cabinets, granite countertops, double ovens, a 6-by-6-foot chopping block island and eating nook in a bay window overlooking a garden. The oak paneled great room showcasing two antique chandeliers from Asheville's historic Battery Park Hotel, soaring ceilings, billiards area, wet bar and large wood-burning stone fireplace that opens through to serve the immense dining room helps create a timeless sense of grandeur. An adjacent cozy den with gas fireplace and bookcases offers a quiet retreat. A 700-square-foot office upstairs ensures quiet and privacy. Custom built-ins abound throughout the house. The house, set far back from the street, overlooks a manicured lawn and lush landscaping, boasts a well thought out floor plan with the majority of living space on the main level, has oak and wormy chestnut paneling, plaster walls, hardwood floors, cedar closets, carpeted bedrooms, a simply safe alarm system, tankless water heaters while the exterior features hard concrete stucco, traditional stone work, a red tile roof, outdoor lighting, irrigation with private well, potting shed, a new 22-kilowatt Generac generator and a renovated two-car garage with new epoxy floor. Three heat pumps provide heating and air conditioning. This is more than a home -- it is a lifestyle of privacy and elegance in a secluded forested patrolled community minutes from shopping.
