Pulling up, the house is stunning. It's a two story house plus a garage on a hill. We pulled up and parked in the parking spot as directed, and walked up the stone stairs to a private entrance. Also, this stairway is illuminated with solar ground lighting so you don't trip at night. Getting in was no problem, I used the door code given to me prior to our arrival. The apartment was clean and newly renovated. It was as described. Two beds, one bath. There is a full kitchen complete with a kurig coffee maker, microwave, and full assortment or dishes/pots and pans. It's in a quite neighborhood. Several mornings and afternoons I sat outside reading and listening to the birds. The occasional car passed, but overall a very quite neighborhood. The views are stunning right from the door you can see mountains. Staying here, you're close to everything! If you have business at UNC, it's literally down the hill. We spent each evening in downtown Asheville, it's a 5 minute drive. We hiked nearly everyday, the blue ridge parkway is 10 minutes away. Also, if you want to run to the grocery store, grab bagels, get fast food? It's all seconds away.
Overall, we had a wonderful stay in a private apartment with great views. The home owners are wonderful people who are knowledgeable about the area and can give you tips and info about the surrounding area, and you're in a great location to explore it all.
