The Spotlight on Sprout

This year, the featured community is Sprout, located conveniently between Asheville and Hendersonville. Sprout is not just any neighborhood; it spans a stunning 375 rolling acres, with 150 acres set aside for pristine forest conservation. With five miles of trails perfect for biking and walking, along with elevated gardening beds and beehives, you’ll find this community emphasizes nature and sustainability.

A standout among the homes is Casa Bonita, a conservation-focused gem built by Living Stone Design + Build. If you’ve flipped through the pages of House Beautiful magazine, you may have seen this gorgeous home featured there! It’s definitely one you’ll want to check out.

Diverse Categories for Everyone

The parade will feature a variety of categories that make the event even more exciting. The sections include “renewed spaces” that highlight renovation projects transforming older homes into modern masterpieces, as well as “community highlights” showcasing the unique features of Sprout.

If you’re curious about what’s coming soon, the “homes that are coming soon” category will be packed with options! Among the properties available for viewing, there will be an adorable remodeled farmhouse near Black Mountain that you can visit in person and five renovated residences you can explore online.

Helpful Resources

During the parade, a free Parade of Homes magazine will be accessible at participating member businesses and at every house in the parade. This magazine will serve as your trusty guide, complete with detailed descriptions of each home, including floor plans and builder information. Plus, there will be a comprehensive business guide featuring over 1,200 local building professionals, making it a valuable resource for anyone considering building or renovating a home.
