About this property
The Sanctuary at Fiddlehead | 4BR Farmhouse + Pond & Trails
The Sanctuary at Fiddlehead is a 49-acre haven in the Blue Ridge Mountains where modern comfort meets the timeless charm of a classic farmhouse. Just 15 minutes from downtown Hendersonville and 23 minutes from Asheville Airport, it offers peaceful seclusion with easy access to local dining, shops, and attractions.
Inside, the fully renovated two-story farmhouse spans about 2,300 square feet and has been thoughtfully updated with hand-hewn beams harvested from the property, quartz countertops, and modern appliances. The open kitchen is fully stocked for creating memorable meals to share around the custom ten-foot farmhouse table that anchors the dining room. Gather in the family room beside the stone fireplace, stream your favorite shows on the Smart TV, or settle into the cozy library with its curated collection of books on local heritage, nature, poetry, and reflection.
Step outside and the magic of the property unfolds. The front porch swing overlooks a stream-fed pond stocked with rainbow trout and brim, a favorite spot for morning coffee or stargazing at night. An impressive outdoor stone fireplace sits just off the porch, perfect for crisp evenings and s'mores by the fire. From there, explore the labyrinth and a serene hiking trail that winds along the creek, crosses the stream, and leads to a natural slide rock with cascading water. With nearly all of the 49 acres open for exploration, The Sanctuary at Fiddlehead offers space to wander, reflect, and reconnect—with nature, with loved ones, and with yourself.
Discover our Yonder Experience Program! Enjoy outdoor adventures, falconry, fly fishing, waterfall tours, and bike rentals. Indulge in in-home chef experiences, art workshops, rooftop bar tours, and axe throwing. Try private scavenger hunts, on-site yoga, and seasonal mini-retreats. Plus, get discounted Biltmore Estate tickets! Learn more about our experiences.
