STORY BY ELIZABETH SIMS
North North Asheville encompasses some of the most beautiful older homes and tree-lined streets in the city, from the stately homes in the vicinity of The Grove Park Inn Resort & Spa, to the established neighborhoods surrounding Beaver Lake and the Country Club of Asheville. Further north is a growing community with the addition of the luxurious homes on Reynolds Mountain. Closer to downtown is the historic Montford neighborhood, filled with family-oriented Victorian homes with large porches and plenty of sidewalks. Throughout the Charlotte Street area near Grove Park, you’ll find arts and crafts cottages flanking the streets.
Up-and-coming West Asheville is home to a varied mix of people, lifestyles and businesses. Sturdy bungalows are predominant throughout the area.
