Striking rooflines, stacked stone accents and expansive glass set the tone the moment you arrive at 13 Tulip Poplar Trail. Designed and built by Jade Mountain Builders, this mountain-modern residence sits tucked into the trees of Olivette and reads as both sculptural and warmly lived-in. Warm wood siding and dramatic exterior lines lead you to covered terraces and elevated balconies that frame the wooded setting.
Step inside to a main living area anchored by a custom built-in shelving wall and walls of glass that visually extend the interior into the forest. The chef’s kitchen is a true centerpiece—sleek black cabinetry paired with rich wood accents, exposed beams overhead, and a generous island for gathering. Polished concrete floors with radiant heat run throughout the main level, offering durable comfort underfoot during cooler months.
Five bedrooms and 4.5 baths are arranged to provide private retreats and flexible living. Above the garage, a fully finished luxury studio apartment mirrors the same high-quality finishes as the main home—an ideal guest suite, income-producing rental, or secluded office. Smart-home technology and thoughtful detailing are woven throughout, reflecting intentional craftsmanship at every turn.
Outside, covered terraces and elevated decks create multiple outdoor rooms for dining, reading and entertaining. Down by the yard, a firepit area is perfect for evenings under the stars, while a fenced side yard provides a secure spot for a dog. Olivette’s community amenities—river frontage along the French Broad River, vineyards, a working community farm, miles of trails, a dog park and acres of preserved green space—expand the living experience well beyond the private lot. The home is minutes from Asheville’s cultural and dining scene yet offers an unmistakable sense of escape.
Thoughtful construction, modern design, and finely chosen finishes make this home move-in ready. Furnishings are negotiable for buyers seeking a turnkey experience. 13 Tulip Poplar Trail is not just a house—it's a refined approach to mountain living that marries architecture, comfort and the outdoors.
Olivette is a one-of-a-kind community along the French Broad River that prioritizes open space, sustainability and design integrity. Residents enjoy vineyards, a working community farm, miles of walking and biking trails, a dog park and river access, all minutes from downtown Asheville’s restaurants, galleries and live music. The neighborhood’s preserved greenways and community programming create a strong neighborly feel while offering easy access to outdoor recreation and cultural amenities.
Olivette and the greater Asheville luxury market continue to attract buyers seeking high-quality custom homes that combine design and outdoor access. At a $2.75M list, this property sits squarely in the upper-tier segment where inventory has been comparatively constrained—well-built, architect-driven homes in communities like Olivette tend to hold their value and move more steadily than generic new builds. Recent valuation analysis places this home at roughly $625 per square foot, consistent with premium finishes and the specialty market for mountain-modern construction. For buyers, this is a market where discerning inventory is limited and well-differentiated properties command attention; for sellers, price discipline and strong presentation matter. While macro conditions fluctuate, the combination of quality builder reputation, desirable community amenities (river access, trails, farm and vineyards) and turnkey condition makes this a compelling listing for buyers prioritizing design, privacy and outdoor lifestyle near Asheville. Note: local days-on-market and inventory statistics vary by price band; interested parties should request the latest Sold/Active comparables for the 28804 luxury segment to inform timing and negotiation strategies.
Excellent recreational access with community trails, vineyards, a dog park and nearby French Broad River frontage for paddling/waterside walking; easy access to multi-use trails and greenways.
