A Once-in-a-Lifetime Opportunity

For the first time in 50 years, one of the most significant private landholdings in the Town of Biltmore Forest is emerging. 436 Vanderbilt Road is a 9-acre legacy estate offering a rare island of privacy featuring a 1924 Charles Parker Tudor masterpiece, built by the same craftsmen who worked on the Biltmore House. Charles Parker was a renowned architect at the time, famous for his design of Asheville's iconic Grove Arcade. Spanning over 8,700 square feet of limestone and slate, the estate is complemented by a guest cottage and pool house. For someone who understands what it means to be next, this is a once-in-a-generation opportunity to own a piece of history.
