Expansive Designer Estate w/ TV Room, Spacious Kitchen & Large Yard dog friendly

Summary:

The Marlin



The Space:

Boasting 4,000 square feet of immaculate living space, this gorgeous 6BR/3.5BA estate occupies 0.75 beautifully landscaped acres in one of Ashevilles most distinguished communities. Whip up delicious dishes in the elegant chefs kitchen or host cookouts on your huge tiered deck. The personal home of a professional designer, this inviting getaway also has a spacious yard, private garage, private office, and home theater. LIVING AREA Make yourself at home in the sunlit living room, detailed with a remote-controlled gas fireplace and a 60 smart TV. The private office offers the ideal spot to plan vacation adventures. Stream favorite shows in the lower level TV lounge, configured with an impressive 100 smart TV and a pair of comfy recliners. The lounge includes a full-size sleeper sofa and a bar with a wine fridge. KITCHEN & DINING Indulge your inner chef in the spacious kitchen, featuring honed granite countertops, a 5 exhaust hood, and top-of-the-line appliances -- including a six-burner Thermador range. Sample appetizers at the kitchen bar for three or sip morning coffee at the breakfast table for four. When delicious dishes are ready, sit down to home-cooked meals in the dining room for eight. BED & BATH This three-story home sleeps up to 16 guests between six bedrooms and a sleeper sofa in the lounge. Comfort awaits in the tranquil master suite, appointed with a cloud-like king bed and a 60 smart TV. The sparkling en-suite bathroom holds a double vanity, a water closet, and a walk-in shower. The large second bedroom has a king bed, the third and fourth bedrooms each have a queen bed, and the fifth bedroom has two twin-over-twin bunk beds. The adjacent guest bathroom is fitted with a tub/shower combination. The sixth bedroom includes two twin beds, and the adjacent bathroom has a walk-in shower. A half bath provides added convenience. OUTDOOR AREA Step out for fresh air on your covered back patio or sip after-dinner drinks in a rocker on the covered front porch. Compose postcards on the screened back porch, then host a cookout on your tiered back deck -- detailed with a sleek propane grill. THE LOCATION Tucked away in one of Ashevilles most distinguished communities, this one-of-a-kind estate is private enough to feel worlds away -- while still being close to all the action. Visit Biltmore Village (9.7 miles) and Downtown Asheville (20 minutes away). Or take a scenic stroll down the wooded walking path that winds through your backyard and beyond.

    Overall nice place and conveniently located to shopping and activities. However, when we arrived the ceiling was leaking above the living room from the master bath. They said they knew about it, but didn't fix it. Also, there was trash overflowing form the trashcan in the garage that we were suppose to use for our stay. Finally the swing on the porch completely fell out of it's hooks while my granddaughter was sitting in it. Finally, I could tell much of the communication was AI driven because it gave me responses that didn't match my concerns. For example, I asked about the possibility of checking in 30 minutes early and AI answered me 4 hours after check in to tell me it would check with the owners.

    Needs some work. Landscaping is very overgrown to the point of barely being able to use the walk...

    Great space but very little furniture for all of the great outdoor space.

    Great for a girls trip!

    Stayed here for a girls trip and it was everything we needed and more! Big enough that everyone had their own space, but designed in a way that you were always with someone! The house was extremely clean and well stocked when we arrived and the Guest Services rep was extremely friendly and quick to problem solve when our AC went out!!! Would stay here again!!
