About this property
Walk to Downtown Asheville, Montford Historic District, quiet alley, 30 day min.
This cozy 1940's bright and sunny Cottage served as the Architect owner's home while he designed and built his new home in 2006 on the nearby footprint of a historic home lost to a fire in 1970. Accessed by a narrow quiet alleyway, it is within a 10 min walk through this great neighborhood to our vibrant downtown and UNCA. Also within a mile to the Interstate, YMCA, Grocery stores (Whole foods and Trader Joes) and dozens of restaurants, microbreweries and coffee shops.
Wood floors and windows, under mature trees, and surrounded by lush landscaping in a neighborhood full of lovingly restored homes and B&B's, mature trees, brick sidewalks, stone walls and bordered by a greenway along a creek.
Fully equipped kitchen (DW, utensils, pots/pans, etc.), W/D, 2 queen beds, 2 sets of linens, comforters, desk, satellite TV, wireless internet, and all utilities included. Private 50mb wireless network is shared with my adjacent carriage house.
The Cottage is on one level, includes a fireplace, vaulted ceilings and skylights, a side porch with gas grille, and a nice secluded lawn with chairs.
30 DAY MIN stay, unless you see gaps between reservations in the calendar. Perfect for relocations, or rented along with the adjacent Carriage House ( #139941) with family or friends coming to town for a group vacation. Parking for one car in front of the cottage, with shared additional space in front of the carriage house. The alleyway and driveway are narrow, so larger vehicles will be tight, trucks might need to park nearby.
