At 2,600 sq ft. the rooms are spacious and warm.

A small fenced backyard is available to quietly relax~ ~ ~ And to relieve pets!

There are two tablecloths- white and white w/two long strands of olive branches, for use on the ping pong table.

Truly a perfect house to stay in if you want the joy of sitting on a porch with morning coffee and looking at the mountains while also being 6 min from downtown Asheville! We couldn't believe how close all the breweries were and how easy everything was. Extremely comfortable beds and so much space - we loved our stay and would absolutely come again!

A great house with wonderful amenities! We had fun with foosball, ping pong, and darts on the back porch. The bedrooms were comfortable and overall the house was clean. Location is quiet and minutes away from downtown Asheville. We would definitely stay again if in the area.

Weekend getaway in Asheville

This house was perfect for a weekend getaway for our group. The kitchen is large and well stocked, and provided plenty of room for hanging out. The dining room was also fairly large and had a nice table where we were able to gather and play games. We enjoyed the ping pong table and the foosball table as well.Plenty of seating in the living room for our group of 8.The house was very clean upon arrival. Located within minutes of downtown Asheville. The host was very quick to respond to any of our questions, and resolved all issues quickly.If I have an opportunity to go to Asheville again, I would definitely book this place again.

About the host

Hosted by Monica Tilhou

Host profile image
Hi! My name is Monica and thank you for reading about my precious property!

I grew up north of Chicago and relocated to this vibrant city in 2010. I bought this home and have been enjoying the process of continually transforming it into a real beauty! Throughout the remodeling process, I’ve been able to decorate it as a very appealing and highly satisfying home.

My life's work/project- my 3 wonderful adult kids and 5 grandkids- were the inspiration for this remodeling project! Because I want to keep them visiting me here, I had the incentive to make this a warm, yet somewhat “luxurious” mountain retreat!

I travel occasionally but will usually be here in town at a nearby home during your stay. It's always a pleasure to greet guests and welcome them to my home, so I look forward to meeting you and showing you around the house and grounds personally- it would be my pleasure!

I truly hope you enjoy your stay- your days and nights (on the front porch with a fire!?) while you're here in lovely Asheville!

Why they chose this property

As I searched for a home close to town to purchase, I was drawn immediately to this lovely, picturesque spot overlooking a pond and facing an evergreen mountain that fills the view! I knew I had to live here!

So, after purchasing it in the Spring of 2013, I undertook dramatic renovations which have brought great response and delight to family and visitors alike. It's been great fun!

I'm proud of the place and pleased to offer a home of this caliber so close to town... 5 minutes! Great views, large front porch, back “games” porch, gourmet kitchen, 6-7 person new hot tub and a secluded front and backyard.

Also, if you are arriving from several directions, easy parking for up to four cars is available at the house with a seperate turnaround green space.

What makes this property unique

This home is perfect for a family get-together out in the woods w/ a terrific view

While enjoying the Living Room, relax on the long leather sofa with extra seating. The room features a candelabra, a mountain-view and often a roaring fireplace!
Piano in the dining room for music lovers~
Great neighborhood for walking, too! Three laps around the pond below is about a mile!

A slow, one-way path around this pond takes you through our quiet, little neighborhood.
Please observe a 10pm curfew on loud,outdoor gatherings. Revelry on the front porch or up in the acres of woods above carries an echo "heard all 'round the pond!". So do, please, respect this curfew each evening. Thanks so much!
