About Grove Park
The Grove Park Historic District is significant to Western North Carolina for its collection of single-family homes that represent the design and construction practices of early 20th century architecture (1908–1938). Time-honored deed restrictions concerning setback and building costs have allowed the properties to relate well to each other and maintain a high degree of integrity. Find homes in Grove Park.
