About This Property

Originally the clubhouse for the Swannanoa Golf and Country Club (later the Asheville Country Club), designed by noted architect Richard Sharpe Smith and later relocated to its current setting. Located in the desirable Proximity Park/GPI neighborhood, less than one mile to the Omni Grove Park Inn and approx. 1.5 miles to downtown Asheville.
