Welcome to Asheville Elevated Living

Local Expertise. Global Connections. Inspired Mountain Living.

Welcome to Asheville Elevated Living, where real estate expertise meets a genuine appreciation for the extraordinary lifestyle of Asheville and Western North Carolina.

I'm Chris Herndon, a North Carolina real estate broker with nearly 20 years of experience and a proud member of Ivester Jackson Blackstream | Christie's International Real Estate.

I've called Asheville home since 2013, and over the years, I've developed a deep appreciation for the distinctive neighborhoods, beautiful mountain landscapes, and vibrant communities that make this region such a special place to live.

Whether you're considering relocating to Asheville, purchasing a luxury mountain retreat, selling a longtime family home, or simply exploring the local market, I'm here to help you navigate the process with confidence.

Experience Matters

Real estate is about much more than finding a property or negotiating a price. It's about understanding the market, recognizing opportunities, anticipating challenges, and helping people make important decisions.

Since beginning my real estate career in 2007, I've personally guided hundreds of buyers and sellers through successful transactions. My experience as a longtime Broker-in-Charge has also given me the opportunity to oversee thousands of transactions, providing a perspective that goes well beyond the typical buying or selling experience.

Today, through my affiliation with Ivester Jackson Blackstream | Christie's International Real Estate, I combine personalized service and extensive local knowledge with the marketing resources, professional relationships, and international connections of a respected luxury real estate network.

And while I specialize in luxury properties, I believe every client deserves the same exceptional level of service, regardless of price point.
