About this property

Historic 8 BR Tudor on 3 1/2 Acres. Private estate and beautiful setting.

This home is a wonderful escape into history. Ask about discount for 4 night long weekends and 7 day weekly Rentals! Built in the early 1900s and updated several times, it has only had 5 owners since it's creation. Lots of updates for modern conveniences, but so many original features including wormy chestnut exposed beams, doors, and paneling...you'll feel the century of old charm. The property is very private and includes lots of outdoor activities to enjoy if you're relaxing at the house and around the property. It is one of the closest homes to downtown Asheville you'll find to accommodate larger groups .

Only 5 Miles to the Asheville Airport, 6-7 Miles to downtown Asheville, 4 miles to Blue Ridge Parkway and Biltmore Park. 5 Miles from I-40, 4 Miles to I-26, 7 Miles to Biltmore estate, and located less than 1 mile from so many restaurants, shopping, grocery stores and other nice amenities...you won't have to drive far for anything.

Pulling into the home you'll realize what a wonderful find this historic home will provide for short or extended stays Asheville, this city and surrounding region has so much to provide. Call or email with any questions. It can accommodate smaller groups who need only 2-3 Bedrooms, all the way to 8 BRs and groups of 16-18...(or more if you want to spread out on sleeper sofas and trundle beds).

My family and I had a wonderful Thanksgiving weekend at this home. The house was a perfect fit! A large house with plenty of sleeping space, living space and a beautiful backyard with a view of the mountains. The home is over 100 years old so there is a lot of history and character but also very well maintained. The owner was very attentive and accommodating to all our needs.

Beautiful Yard. Best if the guest count is not filled to capacityI was there the last week of April for my daughter's wedding. We had 12 adults. I have stayed at many VRBO's in this price range. The outside patio was beautiful and Bill was great via text answering all my questions about irons, hair dryers. We were arriving with formal attire. What proved to be an issue was only 3 bedrooms have closets. All the guests staying there had gowns or suits. Much of the clothing had to be hung on the windows or draped over furniture. I was in the master bedroom on the 1st floor. The full length mirror was glazed over and could not be used for dressing. Many of the bedrooms had no mirrors, let alone a full length. The cottage had no closet either. The first couple staying in there the first night had to move into one of the bedrooms in the main house, due to the smell. We had contractors in our group that quickly identified the door saddle was rotten, thus allowing water run-off into the cottage. I read back in previous reviews about the cottage smell. I assumed that this would have been addressed, years later it was still a problem. The 2nd couple also complained about the musty smell and absolutely had to have windows open, and could not use AC for that reason. The 2 bedrooms off the kitchen, had older people in it. They had to take stairs to that level, the staircase had no railing. I had read a review in Sept. 2023, a guest pointed out missing railing.

Response from VrboOwner on 14 May, 2026
I’m glad to hear this guest enjoyed the property and I’m sorry they did not reach about about issues during their stay. We are always prompt to handle any issue and fix any problem. I am sorry they had issues with closet space and enough mirrors. We can’t add closets but have added 3 mirrors to the backs of doors after these comments along with some cool folding hooks to hang things in the bedrooms that don’t have a closet. All the bedrooms have hooks on doors but this addition will help. The cottage during a few weeks in the spring and fall does tend to get musty smelling due to no central HVAC. But we have fans, a window AC, gas heater, dehumidifier and air purifier that can solve this issue during these weeks when it sits empty…but we didn’t get a chance to help. Opening a couple windows and letting it air out always works. The handrail did fail several times since its installation and it’s being replaced with an iron heavy duty rail for those steps (just a 1/2 flight).

This is a great home for a family gathering! Lots of space, including many different bedrooms that enable privacy. Beautiful backyard that enabled lots of kids to play, and functional back deck enables parents to comfortably watch. We had some challenges with the facilities, but Bill and team did what they could to remedy.

Thanks for the kind words Kristin. Glad you enjoyed the home and setting. It’s very special. I’m sorry we had a couple issues during your stays. For any inquiring minds, one of the electric circuits went dead so 2 outlets and the disposal lost power. My Electician came the same day (Friday) and couldn’t solve the problem. We brought in an electrical engineer that figured it out the following week after their departure. We also had screws come loose in the dishwasher and it tilted forward when opening the door. That was reported after the departure and we fixed immediately. It’s an old house and are constantly taking care of anything that pops up. -Bill

Our family had a lovely stay in this beautiful home. We appreciate historic properties, and this gorgeous old Tudor provided lots of enjoyment for all of us. With an old house comes things like bedrooms without closets and sometimes journeying to a bathroom in another part of the house, but we managed all those things in a spirit of cooperation. The outdoor spaces are wonderful with gathering places and also tucked away places for the introverts to get away. Bill is a communicative and attentive host. I highly recommend this house!!
