Hi! I used to live in Colorado which made me fall in love with mountains. Now, we are permanently living in North Carolina and Asheville is the next best thing we found than can rival the majestic mountain living of Colorado.

Why they chose this property

Asheville has stunning natural beauty nestled in the Blue Ridge Mountains; has a vibrant arts and culture scene, robust food and drink scene not to mention its thriving breweries; offers a lot of outdoor adventures; offers small town charm with big city amenities

What makes this property unique

Location: it is located in a secluded area where guests can immerse themselves in nature YET it is minutes away from the vibrant downtown of Asheville.

Desirable Amenities: it has a well-equipped kitchen, ample backyard space and kid-friendly stuff.

Views: It offers seasonal view of the mountains. Seasonal because of the trees that lined up some of the views. We do not have the heart to cut them.
