This mid-century mountain modern home was originally designed in the early 1950s by a local, noted architect for a successful landscape architect and his wife. The house was carefully sited on the nine acres of land, some of which was a waste disposal site in the early 20th century during the construction of the Kenilworth subdivision in Asheville. The house has ample windows that provide dramatic views of the adjacent Lake Kenilworth and surrounding woods, as well as the fabulous gardens in the foreground.
