One of the best things about this home is the location. It manages to be 6-10 minutes from downtown Asheville, while also putting you in a forest. When you sit on the porch or look out the windows, all you see is trees. Also, I saw a bear while walking the dog on my last morning! Just so you know, there are some steep, narrow, winding roads to get up to the home. I was fine in the summer in my SUV, but just thought to mention it.
