About this property

BREATHTAKING Luxury Estate with sweeping views on 40 Acres, NEAR ASHEVILLE

NOTICE - Mount Airy Farm was fortunate to NOT be impacted by the recent flooding and winds that affected so many areas in and around Asheville. We have consistent water, power and high speed internet, and all roads to our estate are in perfect condition. Miraculously not even a tree fell on out property.

Mount Airy Farm is an outstanding private luxury estate on 38 acres, pet-friendly, with breathtaking views EVERYWHERE you turn! Just 25 easy minutes to downtown Asheville this is a perfect place for family retreats, romantic escapes, wedding celebrations*, and holidays. You will enjoy the cool evenings next to a cozy outdoor fireplace overlooking the infinity pool and gorgeous mountain views. Take a hike on our land or have a family tennis tournament while others cheer you on from the court balcony. The luxurious master bedroom is expansive with a sauna, extra large tub/rainfall shower and a private terrace overlooking the pool and the beautiful valley. Sharing meals is always special here as guests and family gather in the kitchen around the huge island while breakfast or dinner is being prepared. Evenings you might light up the grill off the vast deck area or sit just outside, share a drink and watch another magical sunset!

There could not be a more perfect or beautiful place in our mountains to spend time together with the ones you love! We hope you will join us!

If you need additional accommodations, we have another property, just a short bike ride away. Our Whispering Creek property is approximately a 1/2 mile from Mount Airy for an additional $225 per night.

Helicopter services are available, you can be picked up at the AVL airport and flown to the property, or arrange for a one or two hour tour of the region, they will pick you up at Mount Airy.

Extremely good communication from hosts. Property is really amazing- location, layout, and outdoor space. We had 6 adults and 6 kids and had more than enough room. Second spring break here and it really is the perfect set up. The area is very close to Asheville and a lot of great hiking. The views are absolutely incredible from every spot on property. Kitchen has everything you could possibly need.

The hot tub was nice at the end of very busy days. The outdoor fireplace was so nice - under the starry sky! The dog loved running around the yard and exploring the hills. Our wedding was magical and the property was perfect and beautiful for hosting our family and friends to share in our special weekend! Mark and Cole were both incredibly helpful and responsive for anything we needed. The house is beautiful and Mark had the piano tuned especially to please our family of piano players! Thank you Mark and Cole for making our event and stay so perfect!

We hosted our wedding weekend and have nothing but positive things to say about the property, the home, the amenities, and the property managers! It was the perfect space to have our friends and family stay with us to celebrate. We played tennis, swam in the heated pool, used the sauna and of course got married on the property! Mark and the caretaker were super helpful and responsive and made the whole weekend go so smoothly. The home and grounds were clean and maintained, and the views are to die for!

We got married here and I can't recommend it enough! The property is beautiful, the house is comfortable and spacious and the hosts were amazing.

Excellent Spring break

The house is exactly as advertised. Very clean, spacious, well appointed and the owners are incredibly responsive. We had 6 kids and 6 adults and the kids had a blast. Plenty of room for all. The multiple decks and comfortable furniture made it easy on the adults to relax and enjoy time. Kitchen is excellent- everything you need to cook. Not a single complaint- we will be back next year.

Wonderful place

This is our second year staying here at this wonderful place. Nearby to Asheville and all of its great culture and food, yet far enough away to give you a relaxing time in a beautiful mountain setting. The property caretakers, Sondra and Mark, are fantastic and able to assist and address your every need. This place, and the people that manage it, are great. - Michael from NYC

Thanksgiving family trip

Mt Airy was a perfect spot to gather the family for a holiday. The kitchen was perfect for cooking a family meal for 12, well stocked, serving dishes and all. We enjoyed the hot tub, the ping pong and the big family room for game night. During the day everyone did their own activities but when we came together for happy hour we were all happy to spend the evening at home together because the house was so comfortable. We would all visit again.

Best Vacation Ever!

Incredibly beautiful location which can be enjoyed looking any direction. The infinity pool is amazing; safe for little ones with a shallow area, deeper for lap swimmers. We enjoyed both pickle ball and tennis on the perfectly kept court. The kitchen was large and full of all supplies. Our family of 10 adults and kids from 3 months to ten had plenty of space. We generally like to visit different areas of the country but we will return here.

We had our immediate family staying in the house and it was very comfortable for everyone. The house has a ton of amenities, from pots/pans to the sauna and hot tub.

Beautiful location and outdoor space

We really enjoyed the house and grounds. The outdoor space is wonderful, with the infinity pool and hot tub. We used both daily. The rooms are comfortable with good beds and linens. The kitchen is large and a great place to hang out. The only disappointment was that the piano was badly out of tune and not usable due to that. This property is remote, about 40 minutes to Asheville. It would make a great corporate retreat of family reunion.

Nice house with a lot of space & great views

Our whole family enjoyed the stay. Here are some of the highlights: * Tons of space inside and out (lots of bedrooms and living space) * The kitchen is a central, pretty, spacious area to hang out * Beautiful views * Tennis court is a great amenity * Outside pool area is nice * Property manager was responsive and helpful The few downsides are that there was a bee issue in one of the bathrooms, and the downstairs door to the outside didn't lock. Not too bad given the positives. Hope you enjoy your stay!

A spectacular family vacation!

Our family enjoyed one of the most delightful family vacations ever! We spent quality time relaxing in the luxurious infinity salt water pool, and enjoying the outdoor fireplace. The spacious, lovely accommodations of the house was a great fit for our family to dine, play games and watch movies. The tennis court was very well maintained, and offered many delightful hours for our family, also! We were in awe of the beautiful view of the Blue Ridge mountains from the house. We are very grateful to Sondra and Sandee, who worked very hard to attend to any needs that we had. We would love to spend more family vacations at this delightful property!

Perfect for Our Intimate Wedding

My husband and I booked Mount Airy Farm for a long weekend and held our wedding and reception at the property. We cannot say enough about how wonderful our stay was. The views and grounds were better than we could have imagined and was the perfect setting for our wedding day. The house was spacious and had more than enough room for all of our family. The house has everything you could need, especially in the kitchen. We didn't leave the property all weekend because there was plenty to do between the infinity pool and tennis/basketball court. The caretakers on the property were very helpful and sweet and were prompt to answer any questions we had. Thank you Mount Airy Farm for giving us our perfect wedding weekend!

Great Property - needs some fine tuning

Our family spent the 2024 Christmas Holidays together here. There were a lot of positives about the property, such as the beautiful views, outdoor pool and hot tub, tennis courts and the ability to house a large group. The house had charm but needed a little TLC. Examples included the fire brick being broken in the outside fireplace, door handles falling off on back door of ground floor and missing trim pieces on outside railings. I have seen similar conditions in other large properties that I have rented on VRBO - the pictures on the web site don't always look like what you get when you show up.

This multi-million dollar Estate is with out a doubt, one of the most beautiful places I have ever come across in our mountains. Everywhere you turn you are looking at truly breathtaking views.
