The Sapphire

Welcome to The Sapphire at Heirloom Asheville, a bright and beautifully designed 2-bedroom, 2-bath top-floor condo in the heart of downtown Asheville. Set inside a beautifully restored historic building dating back to around 1895, this inviting Church Street retreat blends late-1800s character with modern comfort, strong Wi-Fi, a full kitchen, spacious bedrooms, and easy walkable access to restaurants, galleries, shops, breweries, live music, and nightlife.

Renovated in 2026, The Sapphire blends updated furnishings, elevated décor, thoughtful finishes, and modern ease while preserving the scale, flow, and character of the historic building.
