We came to Asheville for college visits with our daughter. Carly's house is located in the heart of everything. We had a car, but left it parked most of the time to walk to shops, music venues, restaurants, bookshops, coffee, groceries.... The neighborhood is great. The proximity to the highway is close, but we prefer a little car noise to party walls with other units. The house is stand alone and really clean, attractive and sweet. There is a white noise machine to offset the car sounds. Carly was available for any questions and gave lots of good info about the area. We're happy we chose her place and we'll come again.
