Welcome to Wendover Estate
Wendover Estate was created in the 1970‘s by Tom & Dee Howald as a place for friends to gather and a home and land where to raise their children. This 20 acre property shares some of the most beautiful and serene panoramas the southern Appalachian Mountains have to offer. Mixing the best elements of French Huguenot and American Farmhouse architecture this custom manor home was completed in 1978 by the distinguished local builder Robey Wright. The property can be used in myriad ways: as a primary or secondary residence, equestrian center, working farm, vacation rental business or a Bed and Breakfast Inn. The beautifully appointed main residence boasts over 4,400 square feet of rustic elegance with red oak hardwood floors throughout, all made with wood harvested 30 years ago right here on the farm.
North Carolina Mountain Living
Views of the peaceful countryside are enjoyed from every room in the home. In addition to the main house nicknamed “The Big House”, Wendover offers a sweet old mountain cabin that can be used for guests or caretakers, leased or operated as a “Vacation Rental”.
There are over 20 acres in fenced pastures ready for your horses. Most of land on the Estate is uncharacteristically level with gorgeous pastoral views from everywhere on the property. There is very cool large old red barn in great condition and a stable with a vast second floor for storage.
All these wonderful attributes are situated just 3 minutes from downtown Weaverville and about 10 minutes from downtown Asheville. The property also features a 1/8 acre organic garden, rich, low maintenance perennial landscaping and a large in-ground pool with stone terraces off the main house. Wildlife in the area also is plentiful including hawks, ground hogs, wild turkey, deer and fox.
