The elegant castle features original hardwood floors, cherry walls, 20 foot ceilings, grand Appalachian stone fireplaces and alabaster sconces. Originally built as a private home, the elegance of the 1920's is translated with luxurious wrought iron chandeliers casting graceful lighting. It is easy to imagine F. Scott and Zelda Fitzgerald and The Vanderbilts listening to Bela Bartok play Mrs. Caroles' grand piano as the notes drift through the halls.

We are conveniently located less than one mile north of downtown Asheville. Nestled amid the stunning Blue Ridge and Great Smoky Mountain ranges, Asheville is the largest city in Western North Carolina, yet exudes small-town charm as well as eclectic style. Asheville offers natural beauty, warm southern hospitality, historic and significant architecture, and an impressive array of restaurants and shops.

The Biltmore Estate, Grove Park Inn, the newly restored Grove Arcade, and a wide variety of lodging are within a five mile radius of Homewood. Featuring ample parking and beautiful grounds in a neighborhood setting, Homewood is an excellent location for gatherings large or small.

The Great Room seats just over 100 people for dinner, or up to 150 with cocktail seating; both with space for a dance floor and band. Homewood has been refined with modern amenities, such as a handicap-accessible restroom and elevator. The grounds surrounding Homewood provide additional outdoor space, including our ceremony site in the wooded glen that sits adjacent to the building.

For business events, we offer a variety of seating options and can accommodate up to 150 people theater-style in the Great Room. We will work with you to create a tasteful event to complement your vision.

We hope you will join us for a memorable occasion whether it be a luncheon, dinner, business meeting, party, wedding, brunch or other gathering. Please feel free to contact us if we can answer any questions for you, or to discuss setting up an event.
