This is about the best situation you can find for the Asheville area. Our 5 year old loved the house. It’s a really well restored old farm house that sits on the side of the mountain that devided east and west Asheville. It’s (and this isn’t hyperbole) 5 minutes from great restaurants, shopping and grocery stores. We are able to be hiking on the mountains to sea trail on the Blue Ridge Parkway in 15 minutes. Long story short you need to stay here.
