About This Property
At the pinnacle of the historic Longchamps building, this exceptional penthouse captures the romance of old-world architecture paired with the ease of contemporary living. One of Asheville’s treasured residential landmarks, Longchamps offers a level of character and distinction rarely found today, and this residence stands as one of its most remarkable offerings. Spanning approximately 2,477 square feet, the home is filled with an airy elegance that feels refined and welcoming.
Rich architectural details, curated built-ins, and beautifully proportioned rooms create an atmosphere that is sophisticated without feeling formal. At the heart of the residence, the expansive living room invites conversation and quiet evenings alike, with a fireplace serving as a warm focal point and adding to the home’s timeless appeal. The kitchen has been thoughtfully updated to complement the residence’s historic character while providing modern comfort and functionality.
Designed to transition effortlessly from casual mornings to intimate entertaining, the space balances style and practicality with ease. A private library offers a serene escape ideal for reading, creative pursuits or working from home, while an adjoining bonus space connected to one of the bedrooms introduces additional flexibility. Arranged as a sitting room, it could easily become a luxurious dressing area, expanded wardrobe space or future bath depending on one’s vision.
