A Rare Offering: Two Penthouses at Longchamps. An extraordinary opportunity awaits in the historic Longchamps building, where adjoining penthouses B9 and B10 are available together for an expansive, flexible layout. These top-floor residences blend the elegance of 1920s European design with modern comfort, offering multiple living areas, two kitchens, and four gas fireplaces. B10 features a spacious living room with twin built-in china cabinets framing oversized windows, a chef-inspired kitchen, a cozy library with its own fireplace, and a private terrace overlooking Asheville's hillsides. Bedrooms are tucked at opposite ends for privacy. B9, a bright corner unit, offers western-facing windows, a gas fireplace, granite kitchen, marble-tiled bath, and a versatile former Murphy bed closet for storage or guest use. Combined, the residences create a rare retreat with ample space for multi-generational living, guest accommodations, or a grand single residence. Two deeded garage parking, extra storage, and additional parking lot spaces add convenience. From this walkable North Asheville location, enjoy easy access to the Grove Park Inn, cafes, and neighborhood boutiques.
