About this property

Close to downtown in walkable neighborhood!

NOTE: This property is generally a 30 day or more rental preferred, and rates are for 30 day stays, since zoning only allows me one rental per month. However, do sometimes allow shorter stays at a higher nightly rate, then block out the rest of the month. Shorter stays will have a higher nightly rate. NOTE SPECIAL RATES FROM MAY 13-JUNE 10, 2023 due to a gap between bookings.

This is a great location for enjoying all that Asheville offers and having a chance to live like a local! The neighborhood is from the 1920's era - close in yet tucked away so it's quiet and away from traffic. You can walk downtown through easy neighborhood streets or take a short Uber ride. There are also several wonderful restaurants right here in the neighborhood and easily a full selection of grocery stores ("Greenlife"/Whole Foods, Trader'Joe's and Harris Teeter about .7m away). Asheville YOGA Center & The Ayurvedic Institute is 4 blocks (.7m) away so it's a great place to stay for their retreats!

This home is the main level unit of a 3 level dwelling. It has been updated to preserve its 1920s charm while also providing modern conveniences. You will have over 1100 sq feet of private space including large living room, spacious kitchen with table for dining, 2 bedrooms - each with Queen bed , and a renovated bathroom. The home has all hardwood floors except for bath, which is new ceramic tile.

Although you will likely be drawn to do the many fun things that Asheville offers, unwinding at the end of the day will be comfy on the large sectional sofa, enjoying the 40" TV with a streaming stick to enjoy movies through your amazon, netflix, etc (no cable). Each bedroom also has 28" roku tv for streaming.

For relaxing outside there is a front garden area with mature landscaping to surround you and a table for your enjoyment. You'll have one off street parking spot behind the house. There is also on street parking.

Walk up to Grove Park Inn for dining, coffee, drinks and enjoy the stunning views....Easily stroll to Charlotte Street or Merrimon Ave for dining, or walk through those historic neighborhoods to get downtown, less than a mile away. It's a great neighborhood tucked away but still close to loads of things to do.

This is a somewhat of part-time listing at this property, as I use it myself, but I have two other vrbo listings as well with many great reviews: VRBO # 723258 and VRBO # 2825044. I also have one at Lake Keowee (SC): VRBO # 1309909. My places will not be luxury or high end finishes, but they will be comfortable and inviting, and certainly far less expensive than a hotel room, but with much more space.

Cozy getaway
Nice apartment in shared house. Functional kitchen and bath. Bit awkward layout in living area with big sectional dominating the space. Plenty of bath towels but could use more hand towels and some wash cloths. Like this older area of Asheville with wide variety of charming neighborhoods and a park nearby. Great for walking our dog.

Great spot in Asheville
Enjoyed our month-long working-remotely stay here. Great little neighborhood, walkable to a few coffee shops and downtown if you're up for it. Great internet for working remotely, off-street parking spot, cozy living room with fake fire, two comfy bedrooms. Easy communication with host when we had heat & shower issues, both quickly fixed. Only negative comment is noise from neighbors. Some other reviews mention this as minor, it depends on the day and the level of annoyance you have with this. Upstairs stomping, talking and music play above the living room if you're trying to work is a bit disruptive. But doesn't bother sleeping and otherwise this is a great old house and great stay. We recommend.

About the host

Hosted by Sherri

Host profile image
I am an Asheville native and have renovated and restored property in North Asheville for over 25 years. Most of my property is traditional long term rental apartments, but I recently purchased this property along with my son, we each use it some as a residence. I do have 2 other VRBO's (one in NC and one in SC) if you'd like to see additional reviews of my properties.

Why they chose this property

I have lived in the general neighborhood for many years. I sold my large home a few years ago because it was just too big after my sons were grown and gone, and I am only in Asheville half of the time right now. This place allows me to still be in this wonderful area of town, just in a smaller space.
