Rare for the neighborhood, the property offers a generous, flat side yard ideal for play, entertaining or simply enjoying the beautiful mountain views and natural surroundings. Dogwood Cottage is a genuine piece of Asheville history, built by Thomas Raoul, the original head of the Biltmore Company and once owned by E.
