Discover the charm of Buncombe County’s history with the John A. Lanning House, originally built before 1839 and once among the area’s most stately homes. This residence is not just a house—it’s a living piece of history. After a fire in 2007, the home was meticulously restored, blending modern techniques with its historic saddlebag layout, full dovetail cornering, and yellow pine construction. The floors are crafted from salvaged logs, and the original stonework preserves its historic essence. Key features like the front porch’s original log support and the basement door have been carefully preserved. Salvaged hinges and locks were reused, maintaining John A. Lanning’s craftsmanship. Located on the former site of the Fairview School, this home offers a rare opportunity to own a piece of Fairview’s past, beautifully reimagined for modern living. Don’t miss the chance to own a home with a storied past and a bright future. The sauna is not included.
