Chimney Laurel — Secluded, Wooded, Gated, Close-In to Downtown Asheville

Resting high atop cool, green Elk Mountain and descending into the valley below, this gated community is just outside Asheville to the northeast. With sweeping mountain views and mature stands of mountain laurel, rhododendron, and hardwoods, you’ll treasure the serenity and peace of the forest around you, yet you're just minutes from downtown Asheville.

Chimney LaurelSix historical stone chimneys found on the property remain, according to a local historian, from 1930s guest getaways built by the family of author Thomas Wolf. Long since abandoned and reclaimed by nature, the moss-laden natural stone chimneys still stand to conjure visions of another era.

Natural springs feed the soul, as they do the flora of this paradise called Chimney Laurel in the mountains.
