This splendid home was built in 1900 for Dr. Charles S. Jordon, as reflected in the name of the inn. Celebrated Asheville architect Richard Sharp Smith designed the residence, as well as the adjacent home now known as the Black Walnut Inn. Several of the original architectural drawings are proudly displayed within the inn.

Owned today by Willy and Shawnie Gruber, the 1900 Inn on Montford is a striking three-story asymmetrical dwelling featuring shingles over pebbledash, an expansive front porch with classic Montford brackets, a substantial stone foundation, and numerous other distinctive architectural elements. Inside, the spacious Arts and Crafts home includes beautifully curated common areas and eight elegantly appointed bedrooms with 8½ baths, offering both comfort and timeless style.

The property’s thoughtful landscaping enhances its historic charm, with mature boxwoods framing the approach and guiding the eye toward the immaculately preserved façade.
