Designed by renowned architect Robert Griffin, the home is styled with a European flair inspired by the owners’ travels to France and Switzerland. The open floor plan is infused with natural light, expansive ceilings, reclaimed French oak floors and custom woodwork. The main level showcases gracious living areas that flow into a chef’s kitchen and keeping room, while the cozy sunroom with handmade antique brick floors opens to a spacious patio. The private master retreat is appointed with a dressing room, spa-like bath and private parlor. A dramatic staircase leads to two additional bedroom suites, as well as a billiard room with kitchenette and oak library.

The outstanding lower level presents the ultimate “man cave,” complete with a bunk room, game room, golf simulation room, wet bar and wine cellar. Separate guest quarters are located above the two-car garage, and offer a private bedroom, bath, kitchen and family room. This remarkable property is also near the Biltmore Estate’s equestrian trails.

The home was built by Wiggins-Hill Construction and designed by Shari Hayes Designs.
