Come and see this relaxed, romantic, and easy build home lot tucked gently into the woods of Reynolds Mountain in North Asheville. The beautiful lot sits next to a 16 acre wooded conservation parcel and one-mile nature trail. Follow your gently sloped drive down into a tailored wooded setting, perfect for creating a private home surrounded by nature yet central to all that North Asheville has to offer. Reynolds Mountain is North Asheville’s premier luxury home neighborhood on its own mountain top, yet walkable to destinations like Beaver Lake and Reynolds Mountain amenities including Reynolds Village. Only 10 minutes from downtown Asheville, this lot has City Water, City Sewer, Natural Gas, Electrical and Cabling all easily located for you already and underground. This spot is ready for your unique design!

Yeah! We are excited for both of our two buyers who closed on their homes and are starting the Asheville chapter of their lives, one in West Asheville and one in Beverly Hills, just in time for the holidays. Happy New Year and Happy New Nest to you both! Cheers!

Yeah! We are so excited for our friends and peers, Robert and Rebecca, for their collective new venture called Marquee. Please join us for a Preview of this cool, new retail experience they and their creative vendors have put together from 4 to 7pm this Thursday evening. Do you have some last minute decorating or gift shopping for the holiday? This may be your chance to find something both local and unique. For more details go here. We hope to see you there! Cheers!

We love our vintage homes in Asheville designed by late architect J. Bertram King. We especially love when they, themselves, have been loved over the years and have been mindfully updated while maintaining their original integrity and modernizing for today. Randy and Don’s house is exactly one of those homes expertly stewarded by them. We wrote about the 1959 California styled, midcentury home back in 2010 (I can’t believe it has been that long) and today Joanne O’Sullivan at WNC Magazine has caught up with them in this article here. Please enjoy and have a great Monday. And if you want to take a deeper dive into the world of Bert King visit our facebook page here. Cheers!

Hi Folks! This Saturday and Sunday the Uncommon Market {Asheville’s Largest Market for the Old, the Bold, the Creative and Unexpected} is here for the Holidays. So, get out and enjoy some cool crafts, vintage and midcentury home goods and industrial relics. Then, of course, take a few home for gifts! For the skinny go here. Cheers!

Yeah! We are so happy for our sellers who just sold their amazing rental property now to be stewarded by new owners. Thanks for the opportunity to help you transition this one. Cheers!

Yeah! We are so excited for our buyers who just closed on this beautifully maintained condo in The Timbers. Now they will start creating their personal midcentury styled pad here in the mountains. We can’t wait to see what they do. Having worked with them for years we know it is going to be great. Cheers to you!
