High-end appliances include a paneled Sub-Zero refrigerator, Thermador 48-inch gas range, double ovens, and dual Kohler farmhouse sinks. Custom inset cabinetry, a reclaimed wood and metal vent hood, and a fully equipped scullery/pantry provide additional prep space and storage, ideal for luxury home buyers seeking style and performance. The main-level primary suite offers a private retreat with vaulted ceilings, custom millwork, and spa-inspired finishes including a steam shower, jetted soaking tub and dual vanities. Each guest suite features vaulted ceilings and en-suite baths, providing comfort and privacy for family and guests alike. Outdoor living is a highlight of this Asheville luxury property, with professionally designed landscaping and hardscaping that rivals a private resort.
