About this home
Welcome to 8 Fairway Place, where timeless architecture, exceptional craftsmanship, and refined living come together in one of Asheville’s most coveted communities. Inspired by French château elegance with subtle Tudor influences, this Griffin Architects, PA home offers both architectural distinction and comfort, just steps from the 7th fairway of the Biltmore Forest Golf Country Club. The entry hall is graced with William Morris-inspired stained-glass windows and a painted strap work ceiling that highlight the home’s architectural character. An Edwardian sunroom/parlor, filled with natural light and set with terracotta flooring, creates an inviting space for relaxation. The formal dining room features stenciled Venetian plaster and a high ceiling adorned with a decorative plaster English rose motif. The butler’s pantry, with its backlit English Art Nouveau antique stained-glass doors, opens to an expansive terrace. At the heart of the home, the soaring great hall is anchored by a striking stone fireplace framed in handcrafted woodwork, a space that is both a dramatic showpiece and a warm gathering place. Just beyond, the screened-in porch extends the living area and offers panoramic views of the lush golf course. The grounds are equally as impressive as the interiors, with thoughtful landscaping that provides year-round color and texture. Stone retaining walls and winding pathways echo the architectural detail found throughout the home’s design. From sunlit interiors to serene outdoor spaces, every detail has been carefully considered, creating an elegant and effortless living experience. More than a home, it is a lifestyle defined by sophistication, community, and the natural beauty of Biltmore Forest.
