We've been to Asheville a million times. This house was perfect for us. If I could have given the location a 10 out of 5, I would have. Even our very old dog had little problem making it to Patton Avenue -- the center of downtown -- and back. It was heaven for me to be able to walk to a bookstore. We could play board games in the living room or dining room. We all slept comfortably. The visitors' guide had tons of great ideas, several of which we took advantage of. We hope that we can use this property again!
