Adams, a Asheville attorney who was a founding member of the Biltmore Estate Company and the community's first mayor, and as an excellent local example of Tudor Revival residential architecture.","narrative":"Built in 1921 on a hilltop overlooking the golf course of the Biltmore Forest Country Club, this two-story house was designed by Charles N. Parker in the Tudor Revival style. Its walls combine rough-faced stone veneer on the first story with false half-timbering above, and its steeply pitched roof is slate. Two half-timbered front gables flank an offset entrance, and a slate terrace with a limestone balustrade runs the length of the facade. Inside, cut-stone Tudor-arch fireplaces and exposed ceiling beams appear in the main rooms. The house was built for Junius G. Adams, a Asheville attorney who helped conceive Biltmore Forest, one of the city's most exclusive residential developments of the early 1920s. Adams later served as the community's first mayor, and the house is valued for its connection to that early development and for its architecture.","period_of_significance":"1921-1933","architect_builder":"Charles N.
