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.

R-1
Residential District
The R-1 Residential District encompasses most of the town’s developed residential areas and contains residential structures of historical and architectural significance in a most unique residential environment. The intent of the R-1 District is to preserve and enhance the character of existing neighborhoods and generally to provide a pleasant living environment. These neighborhoods consist of single-family owner occupied detached dwelling units placed on relatively large lots with considerable open spaces between structures, thus creating a low-density residential environment.; Nonresidential uses, including home occupations, have been limited in this District as a means of maintaining the character of these neighborhoods. Likewise, dimensional requirements pertaining to lot size, building setbacks, yard requirements, and height limitations have been established to promote the general welfare and preservation of the community.; Future construction and alteration of existing structures should be oriented at maintaining and enhancing the existing character of the residential neighborhoods. Therefore, structures should be compatible in materials, height, siting, color, texture, scale, and proportion to the other structures in the neighborhood. The R-1 District also contains undeveloped areas to provide locations for future single-family subdivisions.; Consistent with, and to protect the existing character of the neighborhoods in this District, home stays and short term rentals are not allowed.
