About This Property

Located on the slopes of Sunset Mountain, 65 Crestwood Road is a rare legacy estate that captures the timeless elegance, architectural integrity, and gracious living that define Asheville’s most treasured homes. Originally constructed by Abbott Construction for the Pearlman family, this exceptional four-bedroom, three-and-a-half-bath residence was thoughtfully designed to embrace both the beauty of the land and the rhythm of everyday living.
Approached by a long private drive, the home welcomes guests beneath a stately porte-cochère and into interiors filled with warmth, craftsmanship, and extraordinary natural light. Built with enduring Grandfather Mountain stone from Linville, North Carolina, the residence showcases original hardwood floors, custom wood detailing, expansive windows, dome-shaped skylights, and beautifully proportioned living spaces designed to bring the outdoors in.

Positioned to maximize sweeping mountain ridges and sparkling city views, every room opens to the beauty of Asheville’s landscape. Expansive porches and terraces create seamless indoor-outdoor living, offering unforgettable spaces for entertaining, quiet evenings, and year-round enjoyment of sunsets over the city.

The main-level primary suite is a private retreat with breathtaking views and direct access to the surrounding outdoor spaces. The lower level offers three additional bedrooms, beautifully connected sitting areas, and walkout access to established perennial gardens, walking paths, and peaceful outdoor living spaces carefully designed to complement the natural setting.

Meticulously maintained with no deferred maintenance, this home offers a rare combination of timeless architecture, exceptional craftsmanship, and modern livability. Located just minutes from downtown Asheville, yet privately positioned within one of the city’s most cherished walking neighborhoods without restrictive HOA oversight, 65 Crestwood Road represents a remarkable opportunity to own a true Sunset Mountain legacy property.
