Historic 8 BR Tudor on 3 1/2 Acres. Private estate and beautiful setting.

This home is a wonderful escape into history. Ask about discount for 4 night long weekends and 7 day weekly Rentals! Built in the early 1900s and updated several times, it has only had 5 owners since it's creation. Lots of updates for modern conveniences, but so many original features including wormy chestnut exposed beams, doors, and paneling...you'll feel the century of old charm. The property is very private and includes lots of outdoor activities to enjoy if you're relaxing at the house and around the property. It is one of the closest homes to downtown Asheville you'll find to accommodate larger groups .

Only 5 Miles to the Asheville Airport, 6-7 Miles to downtown Asheville, 4 miles to Blue Ridge Parkway and Biltmore Park. 5 Miles from I-40, 4 Miles to I-26, 7 Miles to Biltmore estate, and located less than 1 mile from so many restaurants, shopping, grocery stores and other nice amenities...you won't have to drive far for anything.

Pulling into the home you'll realize what a wonderful find this historic home will provide for short or extended stays Asheville, this city and surrounding region has so much to provide. Call or email with any questions. It can accommodate smaller groups who need only 2-3 Bedrooms, all the way to 8 BRs and groups of 16-18...(or more if you want to spread out on sleeper sofas and trundle beds).

A Perfect Home Base for Our Daughter’s Wedding in Mills River NC

We couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay during our daughter’s wedding weekend! This home beautifully combines the charm of an older house with the comfort of modern updates—especially the bathrooms, which were newly renovated and spotless.There was more than enough interior space for our whole family to relax, reconnect, and enjoy each other’s company between wedding events. The layout was perfect for both gathering together and finding a quiet spot when needed.The outdoor space was truly a highlight. From morning coffee on the porch to evening get-togethers under the stars, it gave us a peaceful and beautiful setting to create even more special memories as a family.We’re so grateful to have found this home and would absolutely stay here again. Highly recommend for families or groups looking for a warm, inviting, and well-equipped home in the Asheville area!

Christmas family vacation

We booked well in advance due to the stay was on Christmas. Bill was very attentive to responding to any questions I had. There was a huge hurricane that went through Asheville and he was informative about the property’s condition. No damages, just the utilities went out and a few trees. My family had a wonderful stay, it checked all the boxes as far as rooms, space, and nearby attractions like the Biltmore estates. Its truely a unique home!

Enough bedrooms for the entire family

My family from around the country chose Asheville as the place to spend a long weekend to celebrate Christmas together. This home has enough bedrooms to fit everyone. It definitely has historic charm!! We appreciated the christmas decorations and patio heaters around the fire pit. The homeowner was friendly, easy to contact and allowed our pets

Family stay

We really enjoyed staying at this home. It was very unique and everyone loved it. There was plenty of room for all. The only draw back was the bathroom situation. Four bedrooms had private baths. The rest had to share one that was in the basement. It was not convenient.

Wonderful property for our Family!

The property was absolutely beautiful with so much space and amenities for our family to enjoy while attending our son’s Wedding. Plenty of bedrooms/bathrooms and loved the cottage. The history and unique features such as the library, large dining room and outside entertainment space made it just perfect! We will definitely stay again when in Asheville. Thank you Bill for being a great host. We appreciate the communication, updates and getting us extra firewood when we needed it!

Great place to relax and play

Family gathered to spread the ashes of my parents. There was plenty of room for a large dining time with a fire pit time after. Little ones played with toys and read books. Late night movies at the couch followed. A great place to restore after some somber times during the day. Beautiful home and grounds outside!

Wonderful Historic Home

Bills property amazed us in every way! The outside is absolutely stunning! And then going inside it has such a historic charm with touches of modern updates! We loved walking through each room and seeing the different styles of each one. We were celebrating our wedding and there was plenty of room for the 17 of us!! Bill was very responsive and even checked in to make sure we did not need anything! We would 100% book again if we go back with a big group!

Wonderful Memories Made

Bill was a great host. Super quick to respond and always kind and gracious. The property severed our family of 23 perfectly. The extra large fridge was great and the dinning room table was well used! We brought our own pickle ball set and set it up in the basketball area. Hours of family fun. The room with the antique piano was special to our musical family. We brought along our violins, cellos, and horns and played music together every day. We would definitely stay here again if we were all in the area.

My daughter wanted to stay in a cute cottage, that’s exactly what she got!

We picked this location because our daughter wanted a cute cottage in Asheville to stay in. Our family which is 8 plus her in laws, a family of 9 all stayed here. Other family members stayed at other rentals in the area and we all got together for dinner one evening and still had plenty of room!! We had children ages 6-18 and they all enjoyed playing in the huge yard, with the basketball goal, and many extras in the garage. This property has so much character and history. Well worth every penny. Would definitely return!

Our first trip as a family

My husband and I planned this trip to spend with our younger siblings and their families. All in all we had 19 people at the house ranging in age from 2 - 46 years old. We had a blast! The kids had a great time playing outside, we held an epic cornhole tournament, used the fire pit every night and we even had a surprise marriage proposal! (She said yes!) Some of the kiddos asked if we could do this again next year - and we just might :)

Perfect host, perfect place!

Bill was a fabulous host! Great communicator. Check in and out was a breeze. Our large family included infants, children and teens. The outdoor space was perfect for playing! The adults enjoyed the fire pit and outdoor lighting. My elderly father had a perfect stay in the quaint apartment on the property. It was nice for him to come and go as he needed. The baby grand piano was also a nice touch as many in the family play. Finally, Bill thought of everything as he decorated the home for Christmas! Minutes away from anything we needed it was the perfect stay! Thanks again, Bill. We will be back.

Our family had a lovely stay in this beautiful home. We appreciate historic properties, and this gorgeous old Tudor provided lots of enjoyment for all of us. With an old house comes things like bedrooms without closets and sometimes journeying to a bathroom in another part of the house, but we managed all those things in a spirit of cooperation. The outdoor spaces are wonderful with gathering places and also tucked away places for the introverts to get away. Bill is a communicative and attentive host. I highly recommend this house!!
