This 1.22-acre lot is nestled in the upscale boutique community of Grove Park Cove, where 17 large lots were created from a portion of the famous Wolfe estate. With the properties now sold out, the community HOA is in the hands of the homeowners. A variety of beautiful upscale homes have been built in Grove Park Cove, with extreme care taken by the developer in designing the layout. Curving roads, stone retaining walls, mountain views, and mature trees create a picturesque community with only 17 very private home sites, each over 1 acre. Many residents have purchased adjoining properties to enlarge their lots, and currently, there are only two homes on Grovepoint Way.
This premier lot (33 Grovepoint Way / lot number 12) boasts the BEST private, unobstructed panoramic, year-round mountain views in Grove Park Cove. The neighboring properties on each side of this lot remain untouched and natural, and they are also available should you desire to enlarge this property. Simply contact Alec for more info.
Enjoy peaceful, amazing views from the BACK of your home, located at the end of the street. The back of your dream home will feature gorgeous panoramic Blue Ridge Mountain views facing Northeast.
This property does NOT overlook any streets, unlike some of the other properties in Grove Park Cove. Utilities, including natural gas, are all in place, along with city water and sewer. The community also features sidewalks, street lights, and mailboxes.
With no timeline to build, you can bring your own builder. This property is ready when you are! It’s a must-see in person; photos and videos do not do justice to this beautiful, unobstructed year-round mountain view.
Please note: Prior to purchasing, we had Kessel Engineering perform soil tests to confirm favorable building conditions. That report, as well as a topography report, can be reviewed upon request and is also included in the slideshow.

Welcome to 197 Lakewood Dr. in the historic and beloved community of Kenilworth, where you can find stunning avl property that offers an unobstructed, private, wide nature view of the lake, complete with mature trees and a beautiful backdrop of mountains. This property boasts lake frontage, allowing for your own private dock!
This .21 acre magical property truly has it all!
Location is key! Just 2 miles east of downtown AVL and north of Biltmore, you will be close to the River Arts District, a variety of restaurants, shopping, the hospital, the Blue Ridge Parkway, and the freeway—all within easy reach.
One of the few places in Asheville where your home can be located directly on the lakefront, this area features only 15 homesites that are lakefront in Kenilworth, along with an additional 9 in Kenilworth Forest. The homes on the long side of the lake do not face this property, providing a very natural and private view! You have the opportunity to build your own dock with seating and a boat launch here.
Kenilworth Lake is a private lake for resident use only—occasionally, you might even spot someone kayaking. With NO public lake access, you can enjoy peace and tranquility.
Joining the Community Association is optional, and there is NO HOA. During warmer months, the community hosts free outdoor concerts and organizes planned events. This vibrant community features several public parks within walking distance of the Lakewood Drive property, all within the Kenilworth neighborhood.
Kenilworth has a fascinating history. Established in 1914 and known as "the Pioneer Suburb," it was the first planned community in Asheville, led by North Carolina's first female mayor, Leah Chiles. The lake, originally named in her honor, is now commonly referred to as Lake Kenilworth. Ms. Chiles fought to keep Kenilworth separate from Asheville until 1929 when residents could vote on it. Throughout the area, you will find historic markers and landmark locations, with winding roads and parks that enhance the charm of this unique community.
Legend has it that the man-made lake was initially intended to be a golf course! Instead, the lake was created, with water supplied by the Ross Creek to the north. The dam at the south end of the lake spills into a continuation of Ross Creek below, an ingenious design that helps prevent flooding at the lakeshore. Another legend suggests that the roads were designed following the paths that horses and buggies naturally wanted to travel through the community!
The slope of this lot is currently tiered, allowing for a multi-level home that would showcase beautiful views from each level!
Kenilworth features a variety of home styles, including Tudor, Victorian, Craftsman, Mid-Century, and even Mountain Modern, particularly in nearby Beaucatcher Heights. The neighboring home, a charming 1950s stone structure, overlooks the dam and the lake, reminiscent of Frank Lloyd Wright's Falling Water design. Our property was once part of this neighbor's lot and was transformed into a stunning garden for many years. The previous owners were well-known artists, authors, and horticulturists. While the garden may have grown a bit wild in recent years, you can still discover unique trees and specimens on the property, along with stone retaining walls from the original garden, many of which can be reused to complement your dream home.
And the best part? You have time to dream! There is no timeline to build here, and since there is no HOA, you can construct in the style you've always envisioned.
With beautiful lake and mountain views, a vibrant community, rich history, and an unbeatable location, this property truly has it ALL!
