Tucked in the heart of one of Asheville’s most artistic neighborhoods, The Wyre is a brand-new luxury apartment community designed to celebrate local artists while offering residents beautifully-crafted spaces to call home.

🌊 River-inspired living

Named after the Welsh word for “winding river,” The Wyre is inspired by peaceful, sunlit days spent floating down the French Broad River. Residents enjoy walking distance to nearby art galleries and cozy cafes, all framed by the breathtaking Blue Ridge Mountains.

🛋️ Stylish interiors

Inside, each apartment features amenities like shaker-style cabinetry with sleek black hardware, luxe plank flooring, and private balconies — perfect for sipping your morning coffee while soaking in the views.

Choose from studio, one, two, and three-bedroom homes, plus enjoy 16,000-sqft of retail space right downstairs. This space brings together local makers, artists, and flavors, so there’s always something new to discover.

🎨 Local arts scene

Asheville is known for its vibrant music scene, blending everything from traditional Appalachian tunes to jazz and contemporary sounds. Take a stroll around Clingman Avenue, and you’ll probably notice eight panels featuring artwork by local muralists, including:

  • Victor Palenque, aka “Ishmael,” whose panels blend the past with the future, featuring train cars splashed with graffiti-like music notes.
  • Amar Stewart, a British-born hip-hop artist who honors Asheville’s soulful history with blue-hued portraits of Nina Simone, Gladys Knight, and Roberta Flack. Did you know all three have ties to Asheville?
  • Oscar Montes, aka “Trek,” whose glowing hummingbirds evoke a sense of something beautiful + magical happening at night.

Psst... The North Carolina Glass Center is just a stone’s throw away, where you can catch glassblowing demos, explore a gallery of stunning glass art, and try your hand at making your own piece.
