Historic Hyman Heights, Downtown Hendersonville, NC

Historic Hyman Heights - Listed on the National Register of Historic Places!

This neighborhood, just off Main St. in Historic Downtown Hendersonville is full of charm and character.

Hyman Heights was platted in 1908 and eventually merged with the Mount Royal section, which was platted in 1923. The area began its real growth with the opening of Hendersonville’s first hospital, Patton Hospital, in 1913 on Highland Avenue. Many local physicians built homes in the neighborhood during the hospital’s life in styles such as Craftsman Bungalow, Colonial Revival, Ranch, Four Square, and others. Killarney, a stone Gothic Revival, is the oldest home dating to 1858. There are 123 contributing houses/outbuildings.

Numerous historic homes are currently on the market in this neighborhood - including the Killarney House and 1227 Highland Ave, the nurses' dormitory. Prices range from the mid $200's to$600's/
