It is unusual to find such a historic property that has been so well restored and maintained. The history and beauty of Buncombe County makes it a great place to visit or a great place to call home. We often tell visitors that we live in Asheville due to an accident of birth. We were both born here and are fortunate that we are able to claim the title of Natives.

The location of The Carolina Jewel is perfect. Only 5 miles to the Blue Ridge Parkway. About 15 minutes from all the amazing restaurants, art galleries and nightlife of Asheville. Only a few miles from the charming small town of Weaverville which is growing with its own expanding collections of food and art.

Outdoor activist will love the proximity of the river with its canoeing, rafting and tubing as well as fishing. Motorcycles and bicycles co-exist peacefully in Asheville.

And if you tire of eating out in all the fine eating establishments there are plenty of tail gate markets, farmers markets, and food trucks for carry out or engage the services of our recommended private chef who will cook and clean up while you relax around the fire.

The unique benefit of choosing the Carolina Jewel is the experience of stepping into a home that is 170 years old and thriving! The furnishing are period pieces combined with family pieces that have been lovingly restored and put back into use.

Another of the benefits are the beds and the linens. Luxury memory foam mattresses and pillow top mattresses will assure you of a great nights sleep!

The kitchens are fully equipped with Williams-Sonoma stainless steel cookware and quality knives for the most discriminating chef. A variety of spices, olive oil, vinegar, coffee and creamers are supplied.
