Most Asheville neighborhoods grew. This one was drawn first—fifteen hundred acres taken from the Biltmore Estate in 1920, chartered as its own town in 1923, and governed separately from the city ever since. Roughly six hundred houses inside the boundary. The plan still holds.
Here are just a few of the available properties in Biltmore Forest.
Stucco and stone walls, an arched stone entry, the original slate roof still overhead, the carriage doors still hung. Inside are five bedrooms and five-and-a-half baths across some 6,700 square feet—built for the cold months as much as the warm. A wood fire in the living room. A great room that opens to the garden. A wine cellar below. The main suite keeps its own fire and a balcony over the front garden.
Outside, the name comes true: stone terraces step down to a heated pool and a gazebo, on 1.65 level acres of mature grounds.
