Property Description
Designed for a lifestyle that embraces both indoor luxury and outdoor living, the home welcomes you with dramatic **22-foot ceilings, oversized Pella windows, and an open-concept main level** filled with natural light. The spacious primary suite offers two walk-in closets and seamless access to a covered, screened-in deck—an inviting place to enjoy morning coffee, the sounds of nature, or an evening gathering among the trees.
The chef-inspired kitchen features **ivory quartz countertops, custom maple cabinetry, Energy Star appliances, and striking local white cedar island posts**, creating a sophisticated yet warm modern aesthetic. Upgraded Hydro Lock hickory flooring, polished concrete, walnut vanities, local poplar shelving, and fully waterproof flooring throughout every level combine thoughtful craftsmanship with everyday functionality.
The lower level expands the possibilities for entertaining and relaxed living with a generous second living area or recreation lounge opening to another covered deck. Upstairs, a dramatic loft overlooks the main living space and connects to two beautifully appointed bedrooms, offering flexibility for family, guests, work-from-home space, or creative pursuits.
Above the garage, a **private ADU-style guest retreat** with its own entrance, bath, and kitchenette provides exceptional versatility—ideal for visiting guests, multigenerational living, executive accommodations, or potential income use.
Beyond the beautiful finishes, this home delivers **exceptional building performance**. A GreenBuilt Silver award-winning residence with an impressive **HERS Index of 54 and Net Zero Ready designation**, it incorporates advanced framing designed to minimize thermal bridging, along with solar rough-ins by Sugar Hollow Solar. This thoughtful approach to energy efficiency and building science brings a level of performance rarely found in Asheville homes without compromising modern luxury.
Outside, a substantial stone patio creates a private forested oasis surrounded by native trees—perfect for entertaining, unwinding, or simply enjoying Asheville's mountain setting. A metal roof, five-stage reverse osmosis water filtration system, spacious one-car garage, and extra-long driveway add even more thoughtful functionality. At 40 Malvern Walk, the lifestyle is as compelling as the architecture: peaceful enough to feel like a retreat, connected enough to enjoy West Asheville and Downtown whenever the mood strikes, and thoughtfully designed for modern living with an emphasis on comfort, sustainability, and exceptional craftsmanship.
