About this property

Farmhouse Retreat on 26 Acres + Mtn Views + Asheville

  • Welcome to your peaceful farm retreat just outside Asheville — where mountain views, fresh air, and simple country moments create memories that last a lifetime.

    Tucked away on a private 26-acre farm, this beautifully restored 1920s farmhouse cottage blends charm, comfort, and a true Western North Carolina experience. You’ll feel miles away from it all, yet you’re only 20 minutes from downtown Asheville, the Biltmore Estate, and some of the region’s most loved restaurants, breweries, and hiking trails.

    Start your mornings with coffee on the large deck as the sun rises over the mountains. In the evenings, unwind under the stars, watch fireflies dance across the fields, and enjoy the kind of quiet you just can’t find in the city.

    Inside, the cottage has been fully renovated to provide a clean, comfortable stay while keeping its original farmhouse character. The home features 2 bedrooms with premium king and queen beds, a full kitchen stocked for home-cooked meals, and a cozy living space perfect for relaxing after a day of exploring.

    Step outside and experience what makes this stay truly special. The property offers wide-open space for kids to run and play, quiet roads for biking, and a chance to interact with friendly farm animals like goats and cows. Guests often say this is the highlight of their stay — especially for families looking for a meaningful, hands-on experience.

    Whether you’re planning a family getaway, a couples retreat, or simply need a place to slow down and reset, this cottage offers the perfect balance of peaceful seclusion and convenient access to everything Western North Carolina has to offer.

    We also offer optional extras to make your stay even easier — from pre-stocked groceries to local recommendations and personalized touches for special occasions.

    Inquire about Farm raised USDA steaks-beef for sale.

    Come experience the beauty of farm life, the calm of the mountains, and the comfort of a place that feels like home.
