About the host
Hosted by Connie Miller
I am a retired dressmaker. For many years I created custom bridal gowns and theatrical costumes from my basement atelier while raising my children.
Why they chose this property
When we became empty nesters we decided to move 10 miles up the highway to Waynesville, my husband’s hometown. For years every time I drove by this house I would comment on how much I liked it. When we were ready to make the move this house happened to be on the market. It came with the cottage which my husband used for his home office for awhile. We decided to make it a short term rental in 2020.
The house is 100 years old. It was a “mash-up” of a Sears Catalog House and another plan from the American Home Plans Company. It has many unique and original features, including the original roof.

What makes this property unique
The cottage started as a garage. The second owner (we are the third) was a visionary and saw a lovely cottage instead of a garage. She added the stone part of the building which has the kitchen and bathroom and converted the rest into the cozy cottage you see today. It’s a very comfortable place to stay while exploring nearby attractions or visiting Waynesville family and friends.
