Description from owner
Description
PLEASE read property description! Walk to downtown Asheville yet stay in a quiet residential neighborhood Central/North Asheville. Location so close to many entertainment, eating establishments, grocery and shopping. Minutes drive to Blue Ridge Parkway (from I 240 in East Asheville), Biltmore Mansion, the Arts District and a quick jump onto the interstates to hiking, rafting and waterfalls.
THIS IS A CABIN-LIKE EXPERIENCE (without fireplace).
A HOMESTAY (shared space in building but no door between units) is terrace level of a DUPLEX (not a basement, there is a basement below on parking level), very spacious with kitchenette, off street parking, eclectic decor from my travels. Owner stays in other unit (upstairs) on street level. Columbian coffee with agave nectar provided and filtered water pitcher.
Note: not suitable for children, couch not for sleeping, comfortable for up to 4 bodies.
*Terrace level is more temperate and stays cooler in summer and warmer in Winter.
New central air conditioning.
Winter- central heat (natural gas).
*Kitchenette - no stove/oven,or dishwasher. Has microwave/toaster, refrig, dining table, Keurig. Grocery stores, ice cream shops (3), coffee, bakery eateries and bars within walking distance.
*TV by antenna, gets ABC, NBC, FOX, PBS, all other channels must be accessed by your streaming apps.
Recommend these local gems The Hop, Taco Temple, Luella's BBQ, Rise n Shine Cafe, YoLo ice cream, City Bakery.
