This is a lovely house about 6-8 min easy drive from the center of Asheville. It sits on a mountainside with great views and feels serene and full of light. The layout is great for a family with 2-4 kids, and so much nicer than staying in a hotel. Superb communication, sparklingly clean, and very comfortable. Well furnished with antique pieces mixed skillfully with more modern - and the smart use of the space makes the house feel bigger than its footprint. When we returned home my daughter excitedly told her grandparents about the amazing house we visited - and they thought she was describing Biltmore! So if you want your own luxury retreat in the woods near Asheville, look no further, this is it.
