Community overview based on MLS listing data for Longchamps Condos, Asheville
Longchamps Condos is one of Asheville’s most distinctive addresses, a 1925 French-designed landmark set along Macon Avenue in the Grove Park area. The building’s historic character is immediate: steeped in old-world style, with a sense of presence that feels more manor house than conventional condominium. Residences here tend to be spacious, and the setting carries the elevated, tucked-away feel that comes with a landmark property near some of the city’s best-known destinations.
"A storied Asheville address where historic architecture and in-town convenience meet with unusual grace."
Longchamps is a condominium community, and the homes lean into the building’s original character rather than trying to disguise it. Expect high ceilings, hardwood floors, fireplaces, built-ins, sunrooms or enclosed porches, and generous living and dining areas that suit the scale of the building. Many residences have been updated with newer kitchens, HVAC systems, and soundproofing, while still preserving the French-inspired architecture that defines the property. Garage parking appears in many listings, and some homes include private terraces, a rare and especially appealing feature in a historic building of this era. The overall impression is refined, layered, and unmistakably rooted in Asheville’s architectural history.
Daily life at Longchamps feels low-maintenance and polished, with elevator access, shared parking or deeded garage space in many units, and practical touches like storage and laundry facilities. The building’s intimate scale adds to its appeal, with just two residences per floor in some configurations and a strong sense of privacy for a historic condominium. Outdoor spaces are a highlight here as well, from small garden areas and patios to the occasional private terrace, which gives select residences an uncommon connection to the outdoors. A nearby rhythm of cafés, boutiques, dining, and spa visits shapes the area, and Grove Park Inn sits close enough to become part of the routine.
"Historic surroundings, private outdoor space, and an easy in-town rhythm define the Longchamps experience."
Longchamps sits in Asheville’s Grove Park area on Macon Avenue, just steps from the Grove Park Inn and about 2 miles from downtown Asheville. Listings also place it a short drive from the Blue Ridge Parkway and within the Charlotte Street corridor, with its restaurants, boutiques, and cultural stops. The community is served by Asheville City schools, including Asheville City Elementary, Asheville Middle, and Asheville High. For buyers who want a landmark setting with direct access to downtown, the parkway, and North Asheville’s established amenities, this location is especially well positioned.
