Charmed Cottage was built in 1974. The cottage is uniquely placed on 11 acres of private land at the end of the road and at the top of the mountain. The cottage is cradled on two sides by the mountain on which it sits, the rest is "the view".
Totally renovated from top to bottom and new on the market as of April 17, 2008. This charming cottage has wood ceilings and windows galore. The windows and doors are said to be from an old mansion in Asheville. It is situated on the mountain in such a way that it never gets the direct afternoon sun which keeps it perfectly cool during summer months.
Beautiful plantings bring a bounty of floral surprises throughout the year. The natural stream and waterfall add to the beauty and relaxation of this cottage hide-away.
The cottage features four decks:
- an intimate dining deck with a spectacular view
-an intimate conversation deck with a spectacular view
- one huge deck, the size of a four car garage for group get-togethers (maybe weddings) or lazing the day away
- one large deck on a grassy knoll with 6-8 person hot tub and that spectacular view

Owner's Profile
Owner Description
Year Purchased: 2007
I love Asheville! I live in Houston and, amazingly, manage our properties easily from afar. I own Sanctuary Spa in Houston. Many of our guests tell me our cabins are "spa-like"...no wonder! I look forward to the day I get to move to Asheville. I've been working on it for many years and life events get in the way. Hopefully summer of 2011...keep your fingers crossed for me/us. I am in a relationship with David Robinson for 9 years now. He has also invested in a property in Asheville. All total we have three properties - Charmed Cottage, Chalet Quietude and Woodlands Chalet.
Why the Owner Chose Asheville
Well - I said it before - I LOVE Asheville. I want to live in Asheville. It brings joy to my heart. I love the forest, the mountains, the sunrise, the sunsets, the snow, the summer, the ever changing views from all of our cabins - you name it - I LOVE Asheville.
The Unique Benefits of this Cottage
Charmed Cottage is on 11 acres and it has a stream. I love the serenity, the privacy and the huge hot tub. The house is just about all windows and you can see everywhere. The decks are awesome (3 attached to the house). Even though it is a large cottage, it is extremely intimate. It is cozy, comfortable and spacious (ha). I love that it is one mile up the road from the main road and at the top of the mountain. The property was built by a child actor who originally owned the entire mountain...wouldn't that be great - own a mountain. I love it at the Charmed Cottage.

Owner response:We are so happy to have guests that appreciate the detail, the environment and the unique beauty of our Charmed Cottage. It is very private, at the end of the road and a year round spectacular view of 7 mountain ranges. We also think it is inspiring, hence the name Charmed Cottage. I hope others find us and experience the magic, romance and peaceful luxury. Thank you for your fabulous comments, they are appreciated. Brea
