Grove Manor Family

We're so glad you're here! A little about us....

Steve and Sarah Cosgrove: Owners

Steve has been in the flooring industry for nearly two decades in Denver. After graduating from college at SMU, he moved up to CO where he met his wife Sarah. After owning and growing a flooring franchise for seven years, combined with growing their family of 6; they had a desire to branch out and extend their expertise in their own way, now in the Asheville area. Grove Manor was planted and bloomed!

Ironically, this started on their fifth wedding anniversary year, and the traditional gift is wood. What better way to celebrate than giving each other their own re-branded wood business!

Steve is an expert in flooring and sales, and Sarah specializes in operations, with an eye for design. With Steve's expertise and friendly approach and Sarah's Southern Roots, they bring honest craftsmanship, professionalism, creativity, and hospitality to your project. The Cosgroves now call Hendersonville,North Carolina "home."

The Meaning of Grove Manor:

A grove is a group of trees or small forest, woodsy place of worship, and a play on the last name Cosgrove. The term is symbolic for the Cosgroves' love of nature, working with wood, and their "group" or grove within their family business; from their working relationships, clients, crews, and family.

A manor is typically thought of in relation to English law, and to a large country house on a large piece of land, beyond a grove. Manors are known for solid construction and for peaceful domestic life. This plays well into the Grove Manor name representing solid foundation in their work, material selection, healthy environment, and durability. The Cosgroves strive to help clients update or create their manor to make memories in, for many years to come.

The Cosgroves are so proud to be a family owned, small business now in the Asheville, NC area!

They have a philosophy and a work ethic I am proud to be a part of.”
