Walk to Downtown, Historic Montford Studio, Free Parking, excellent reviews!
Location, location, location. Separate entrance, off street parking, full kitchen and washer/dryer for a super-comfy stay. Stroll just 2 blocks to town from the studio, a bright and quiet private space in my Montford home. The neighborhood is beautiful and historic, with mature trees and lots of flowers; my home was built in 2001 and the studio was completely renovated in 2018. Folks stop to admire my garden!
Although close to expressways for easy access, the studio is quiet - no highway noise to disturb you. Neighbors come and go, of course. Enjoy the airy living area - kitchen, dining table/chairs, bar stools at the large granite kitchen island/counter, and a comfy sofa that converts into a pillow-top queen bed.
The cozy sleeping area features a king bed, built-in bookcases - full of books and games - and a pair of green chairs that remind me of Goodnight Moon...
The kitchen is fully equipped - dishes, glasses of all kinds, flatware, cookware and utensils - down to a vegetable peeler and lemon squeezer! You won't have to go shopping for coffee/tea, sugar/honey, eggs, oatmeal, yogurt, cheese and crackers, olive oil, vinegar and condiments - all provided for you on arrival. My guests will also enjoy a welcome treat from a range of possibilities. We'll talk!
Other amenities include TV, WIFI, toiletries, blow dryer, first aid kit, washer/dryer, detergent & dish soap & pods for the mini-dishwasher, cleaning supplies and a new large room air filter, just in case those fires get across the mountains. So far, so good.
Rest assured, I launder everything between guests - not just sheets/ towels, but also mattress pad, duvet cover, bath mat and little kitchen rug.. Every time. Just as I would like it to be!
It's just a 5 minute walk up Flint St. and you're in downtown Asheville. You can enjoy our delightful restaurants, shops, independent bookstores, an indie movie theater and several rooftop bars with spectacular views. Don't forget the drum circle Friday evenings - genuine local color and fun!
Just 2 blocks down Starnes (the other direction) is our sweet neighborhood coffee/tea emporium, High Five, with free wifi and friendly folks. Across the street from it is Little Jumbo's, a terrific pub with a New Orleans feel. Monday and Tuesday are jazz nights - locals hang out, including me! Two more blocks and you are in Whole Foods, next to Trader Joe's and across a street from Harris Teeter, the big supermarket. Look ma - no car!
A favorite cafe catering mostly to locals, All Day Darling, is just a 5 minute walk through my historic Montford neighborhood. Tall Johns and Nine Mile are just a bit further. No car necessary, but the parking is easy.
Fully renovated in 2018, as noted above, the studio is now a short term rental after being a home for friends/tenants for 3 years. Although they could hear some movement from my living space above, it didn't bother them. I will observe quiet hours between 9:30 pm and 8:30 am during your stay. The space is not baby-proofed and probably not suitable for kids under 12.
As the reviews indicate, I love helping my guests have their best time in Asheville and the surrounding area. Fair warning: I visited and ... moved here!

About the host
Hosted by Anita
A retired college professor, I love these Western North Carolina mountains and everything about the people and the vibe of Asheville. Whether it’s a walk in the woods or a hike in the neighborhood, I’m smiling and enjoying the weather, mature trees and flowers, and the friendly people. The outdoor music scene is fantastic, the art is delightful…and the food goes without saying. I’m so happy to share my favorites!
