About this home

A distinctive mountain retreat with extraordinary views, architectural character, and room to live beautifully. Set high on Asheville’s Sunset Mountain, 24 Westhaven is a thoughtfully designed home that pairs expansive mountain views with a sense of privacy and ease. With more than 3,800 square feet, the home offers generous spaces for gathering, quiet corners for retreat, and a seamless connection to the surrounding landscape. Walls of glass bring the ever-changing Blue Ridge landscape into the living spaces, while the architecture creates a wonderful balance of openness and warmth. The main living areas are designed for both everyday life and entertaining, with a natural flow between the kitchen, dining, living, and outdoor spaces. The primary suite is a true retreat, with views, generous proportions, and the privacy to make it feel distinctly separate from the rest of the home. Additional bedrooms and flexible spaces provide room for guests, work, hobbies, or simply spreading out. And then there is the setting. From the elevated vantage point on Westhaven, the mountains become part of the experience of living here—morning light, changing weather, dramatic sunsets, and the quiet that comes with being above the city while remaining remarkably close to it. There is no HOA, and the neighborhood has a relaxed, established character that feels distinctly Asheville. Downtown, restaurants, galleries, music, and the everyday pleasures of the city are all nearby, while home itself feels like a world apart.
