Remarks

In the early 1920's as the Kenilworth neighborhood developed, several homes of significance were built.  This beautiful house, built by John H. and Rachel Jenkins and attributed to Richard Sharpe Smith,  sits atop the knoll on Sherwood Road  and boasts mountain views, heart pine floors, a large corner lot and gracious porches.  It was the nest for generations of the same family and for the past two decades, the current owners have cared for and modernized this almost 3200 sf Craftsman style home with copper pipes, new wiring, quartz countertops, air conditioning, water filtration and restored the baths and kitchen. This gem is what the new neighborhoods try to copy! Come own a piece of Asheville history.
