The grandeur of the surrounding mountains embraces you as you relax on this 3.5 acre estate. This is a four season vacation destination: Spring is spectacular on the farm with color bursting out everywhere and the trout stream on the property ready to be fished. There is great hiking during all four seasons, only 10 minutes from the farm in the Pisgah National Forrest. Summer and early fall are great times for relaxing poolside, swimming in the beautiful pool out your back door. Fall is fantastic, with the valley and farm on fire with fall colors. The farm in fall is great for sitting and listening to the stream, reading under the gazebo or napping in the hammock and walking through the one acre of gardens with fall plants. Winter is great for those ski lovers, with Wolf Laurel ski resort just 20 minutes away. Also enjoy the beauty of the farm transformed by winter. All four seasons enjoy bonfires under the stars with smores and hot chocolate a must. The best of both worlds year round, with Asheville for galleries, restaurants, shopping and festivals, and the mts. in your backyard for hiking,rafting, winter skiing and just the quiet beauty of the land. Come enjoy Sunflower Farm all year long!
