We've Lower Rates, So Book Your Excursion!
Our modern, but charming, 2BR/1.5BA studio loft is located on the 2nd level of the building and looks over nearby restaurants and shops. The building has undergone a total renovation in 2019 to offer all the newest conveniences and modern comforts, while remaining true to the 1900's charm of the stucture.

Suite 202 offers a fully equipped kitchen, combined living area with bar seating, large leather sectional to relax, and a built in work station if needed. Large windows let in lots of natural light, wood floors, open rafters and exposed brick were retained in the renovation process. The loft is also home to art, commissioned by local Folk Artist Charlie Frye of Folk Keeper Gallery, specific to Burke County Landmarks. The unit has cental heat and air, stove, refrigerator, dishwasher, Keurig coffee maker, blender, toaster and microwave. Two spacious bedrooms with king beds. Due to fire and safety codes, the bedrooms do not have doors, but offer privacy drapes. One full bath located between the bedrooms with walk in shower, and a half bath just inside the entrance door. All linens are supplied as well as toiletries, hair dryer, and clothing iron. Easy parking located behind the unit where there is a private lighted entry. Parking directions can be given.
