64 Peniel Rd., Columbus, NC 28722

Dunwyck sits atop a gentle knoll on nearly 20 private acres. Her long tree lined drive and terraced gardens welcome, as does her gorgeous arched entrance and grand hall. Devereux Van Akin, one of the country's first female architects designed the stunning Tudor Revival farmhouse with a reverence to nature and special care to placement. The home was built in 1926 using local granite, stucco, brick and half-timbering, as well as the skill of second generation Biltmore artisans. Each facade is different to give the appearance of being added through the decades, and all are crowned by a slate roof and whimsical chimney pots. The home features all the charm and coziness of English country living, but with updated modern amenities. Dunwyck is at once a gracious country house and a proper manor home. Fabulous location minutes to Tryon's World Class Equestrian Center, 15 minutes from Hendersonville, and only 40 minutes to Asheville. Shown by appointment to well qualified buyers.
