“Residential designers (architects, interior designers and others) bring a wealth of knowledge and skills to make sure all aspects of remodeling and custom home projects go as smoothly as possible.

Talk with almost anyone who’s ever tried to do a construction project without pro help, and you’ll likely hear one statement over and over again: “I wished I had hired a designer.” Even in smaller projects, like a one-room remodel, once you open up those walls, situations arise for which only an experienced professional can apply his or her creative problem solving to save time and money.” Find the full article here.

FOR SALE | The Ultimate "Paris of the South" Condo
2 Bedrooms | 2 Baths | 1525 SQFT | 2 Car Garage | Storage Room | Views from Downtown to Mt. Pisgah

2 Bedrooms | 2 Baths | 1525 SQFT | 2 Car Garage | Storage Room | Views from Downtown to Mt. Pisgah

We are so excited to bring this unique property to the market today. This luxury condo perched on a knoll above downtown has sweeping views across both the distant mountains & downtown and exemplifies why they call Asheville the "Paris of the South." The historic and beloved Skyclub building is the romantic setting for this condo that beautifully blends the old with the new in an updated clean and contemporary interior. The home is a perfect blend of calmness and drama. Enjoy the ever changing light and sky from your kitchen and sunroom or retreat to a cozy fire in either the living room or master bedroom. New appliance throughout including a Bosch induction range and new on demand gas water heater. The secluded, private and gated 4 unit building has level garden space to enjoy the southern sun including a recently remodeled sparkling pool. The property is a ten minute walk to downtown. This unit comes with its own two car garage and 170 SQFT storage room in the basement. Furnishings available separately.

SKY CLUB HISTORY | According to Rob Neufeld, The Sky Club, a restaurant and dance club operated by German-Americans Gus and Emma Adler atop Beaucatcher Mountain, started out as the Old Heidelberg Supper Club in the late 1930s and changed its name in 1942 in response to anti-German sentiment. The Adlers, East Asheville restauranteurs, had purchased the estate of Oliver Cromwell Hamilton. After Gus' death in a fire in 1952, Emma continued the club, hosting celebrities such as Grace Kelly and Robert Mitchum, in town to make movies. "Buncombe County did not allow sales of liquor," historian Sharon Fahrer writes. Sky Club patrons "would bring their own bottles ... They were also charged a dollar for a bucket of ice." The Sky Club "was known for ... strip steaks and shrimp cocktail," as well as for views, Rick McDaniel writes in his book "Asheville Food." In 1957, Castle in the Sky purchased the Sky Club from Emma Adler for $65,000, with more than that to be spent on renovations. The corporate treasurer was Fred Seely Jr., E.W. Grove's grandson. The president, William Conrad of New Jersey, revived the panoramic third floor dinner-and-dance hall as The Satellite Club. The Sky Club was later sold and converted to condos.

We have more information ready to share with you so give us a call for that or a private tour. For now check out our virtual tour here. Cheers!
