Cette maison est une merveilleuse évasion dans l'histoire. Construit au début des années 1900 et mis à jour plusieurs fois, il n'a eu que 5 propriétaires depuis sa création. Beaucoup de mises à jour pour les commodités modernes, mais tant de caractéristiques originales, y compris les poutres apparentes, les portes et les boiseries en châtaignier ver ... vous sentirez le siècle du charme ancien. La propriété est très privée et comprend de nombreuses activités de plein air à pratiquer si vous vous détendez à la maison et autour de la propriété. C'est l'une des maisons les plus proches du centre-ville d'Asheville que vous trouverez.

Seulement 5 miles de l'aéroport d'Asheville, 6-7 miles du centre-ville d'Asheville, 4 miles de Blue Ridge Parkway et Biltmore Park. À 5 miles de la I-40, à 4 miles de la I-26, à 7 miles du domaine Biltmore et à moins de 1 mile de tant de restaurants, magasins, épiceries et autres agréments ... vous n'aurez pas à conduire loin pour rien.

En entrant dans la maison, vous réaliserez quelle merveilleuse trouvaille cette maison historique offrira pour des séjours courts ou prolongés. Asheville, cette ville et ses environs ont tant à offrir. Appelez ou envoyez un courriel pour toute question. Il peut accueillir des groupes plus petits qui n'ont besoin que de 2-3 chambres, jusqu'à 6 BR et des groupes de 14-16 ...(ou plus si vous souhaitez vous étendre sur des canapés et des lits bébé).

Our family had a lovely stay in this beautiful home. We appreciate historic properties, and this gorgeous old Tudor provided lots of enjoyment for all of us. With an old house comes things like bedrooms without closets and sometimes journeying to a bathroom in another part of the house, but we managed all those things in a spirit of cooperation. The outdoor spaces are wonderful with gathering places and also tucked away places for the introverts to get away. Bill is a communicative and attentive host. I highly recommend this house!!

This is a great home for a family gathering! Lots of space, including many different bedrooms that enable privacy. Beautiful backyard that enabled lots of kids to play, and functional back deck enables parents to comfortably watch. We had some challenges with the facilities, but Bill and team did what they could to remedy.

Wonderful time in Asheville

Our family of 10 had a great time staying at this house in Asheville!1) communication with Bill was great. He was very responsive to questions and checked in on us often by text. Although we did not need his assistance, I felt reassured that if we did, he was always available.2) one of the best parts of staying at this house was the location. 15 minutes from the airport. Less than 30 minutes from hiking trails, breweries, vineyards, shops, and restaurants. We were only 23 minutes from Black Mountain, which is one of our favorite towns to explore.3) The house: the house was more than large enough to accommodate our family of 10. My 18 year-old daughter enjoyed staying in the cottage with her friend. The grounds are lovely. We saw deer, fireflies, as well as a black bear (so don’t leave food outside overnight). We made s’mores over the fire pit one night and one of the marshmallows had dropped in the grass, so I’m sure that’s what brought the bear . The house itself is over 100 years old so the layout is a little different from what you would expect from a modern home. For the first couple days we would get turned around and lost in the house. 4) Lastly, the city of Asheville, and all it surrounding areas look like they have recovered from the hurricane remarkably. We really weren’t quite sure what to expect, but we were able to do almost everything we normally do when we vacation in this area. We can’t wait to return! Thank you Bill for allowing us to stay at your home!

If you are looking for charm & character, this is the place for you! If you are in need of accommodating a large group or family, this is your place! Our family carefully searched for a home which would be welcoming & spacious and one which wouldn’t frown upon us hosting a small event (a rehearsal dinner). After making inquiries of the host, we knew we had found the perfect place! This home is very spacious with the charm of yesteryear. Whether gathering outside around the fire or soaking in family chats in the cozy library, there was never a lack of space. The beds were very comfortable & the charming cottage was a delight to decorate for the newlyweds to spend a quick evening in before setting off for Hawai’i. The only thing lacking in this home was the occasional gnome you knew had to be hiding out somewhere on this property! Still, there were turkeys, squirrels & chipmunks to join us on the back patio for morning coffee! Our host was the most accommodating I ever had the pleasure of doing business with! (Thanks, Bill!) -The only word of caution I would make would be for guests to be aware that a few of the sets of stairs can be quite steep and a bit challenging for older guests. We had preassigned rooms prior to arrival, but did switch up to ensure older family members stayed on the main floor to avoid them having to navigate the stairs. It worked perfectly as the main floor bedroom has its own bath w/ handicapped bars. - Overall, this beautiful Tudor home is a 10 of 10!

A Perfect Home Base for Our Daughter’s Wedding in Mills River NC

We couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay during our daughter’s wedding weekend! This home beautifully combines the charm of an older house with the comfort of modern updates—especially the bathrooms, which were newly renovated and spotless.There was more than enough interior space for our whole family to relax, reconnect, and enjoy each other’s company between wedding events. The layout was perfect for both gathering together and finding a quiet spot when needed.The outdoor space was truly a highlight. From morning coffee on the porch to evening get-togethers under the stars, it gave us a peaceful and beautiful setting to create even more special memories as a family.We’re so grateful to have found this home and would absolutely stay here again. Highly recommend for families or groups looking for a warm, inviting, and well-equipped home in the Asheville area!

Christmas family vacation

We booked well in advance due to the stay was on Christmas. Bill was very attentive to responding to any questions I had. There was a huge hurricane that went through Asheville and he was informative about the property’s condition. No damages, just the utilities went out and a few trees. My family had a wonderful stay, it checked all the boxes as far as rooms, space, and nearby attractions like the Biltmore estates. Its truely a unique home!

Wonderful Memories Made

Bill was a great host. Super quick to respond and always kind and gracious. The property severed our family of 23 perfectly. The extra large fridge was great and the dinning room table was well used! We brought our own pickle ball set and set it up in the basketball area. Hours of family fun. The room with the antique piano was special to our musical family. We brought along our violins, cellos, and horns and played music together every day. We would definitely stay here again if we were all in the area.

Family stay

We really enjoyed staying at this home. It was very unique and everyone loved it. There was plenty of room for all. The only draw back was the bathroom situation. Four bedrooms had private baths. The rest had to share one that was in the basement. It was not convenient.

Perfect host, perfect place!

Bill was a fabulous host! Great communicator. Check in and out was a breeze. Our large family included infants, children and teens. The outdoor space was perfect for playing! The adults enjoyed the fire pit and outdoor lighting. My elderly father had a perfect stay in the quaint apartment on the property. It was nice for him to come and go as he needed. The baby grand piano was also a nice touch as many in the family play. Finally, Bill thought of everything as he decorated the home for Christmas! Minutes away from anything we needed it was the perfect stay! Thanks again, Bill. We will be back.

My family from around the country chose Asheville as the place to spend a long weekend to celebrate Christmas together. This home has enough bedrooms to fit everyone. It definitely has historic charm!! We appreciated the christmas decorations and patio heaters around the fire pit. The homeowner was friendly, easy to contact and allowed our pets

My daughter wanted to stay in a cute cottage, that’s exactly what she got!

We picked this location because our daughter wanted a cute cottage in Asheville to stay in. Our family which is 8 plus her in laws, a family of 9 all stayed here. Other family members stayed at other rentals in the area and we all got together for dinner one evening and still had plenty of room!! We had children ages 6-18 and they all enjoyed playing in the huge yard, with the basketball goal, and many extras in the garage. This property has so much character and history. Well worth every penny. Would definitely return!

Property needs TLC

Prior to writing this review I reached out to the owner to share our feedback. Bill however threw everything back at me stating that it was “our responsibility” to report these issues to him. Frankly we were on vacation and for what we paid, this house should have been “ready” for us to enjoy. Upon arrival the owner contacted me to inform of a few items that were not working (the top oven), broken (handrail on staircase) and the musty smell in the cottage. I felt slightly deceived of the last minute information. This home needs attention, there were several lights burned out, the sofa cushions were worn and torn and some of the knobs did not work properly. In the kitchen the silverware drawer falls off track when pulled open that a few times almost fell on our toes. Many cobwebs in the bedrooms and the lower bedroom and cottage smelled musty (even with windows opened the smell would not go away….concerning that we have been breathing in mold) Bill promised me a refund…. which I’m still waiting to see.

Great place to relax and play

Family gathered to spread the ashes of my parents. There was plenty of room for a large dining time with a fire pit time after. Little ones played with toys and read books. Late night movies at the couch followed. A great place to restore after some somber times during the day. Beautiful home and grounds outside!

Our first trip as a family

My husband and I planned this trip to spend with our younger siblings and their families. All in all we had 19 people at the house ranging in age from 2 - 46 years old. We had a blast! The kids had a great time playing outside, we held an epic cornhole tournament, used the fire pit every night and we even had a surprise marriage proposal! (She said yes!) Some of the kiddos asked if we could do this again next year - and we just might :)

Wonderful Historic Home

Bills property amazed us in every way! The outside is absolutely stunning! And then going inside it has such a historic charm with touches of modern updates! We loved walking through each room and seeing the different styles of each one. We were celebrating our wedding and there was plenty of room for the 17 of us!! Bill was very responsive and even checked in to make sure we did not need anything! We would 100% book again if we go back with a big group!

Qui vous reçoit ?

Vous êtes reçu par Bill Russell

I am the owner of this home and have loved this property for three decades when my best friend purchased the home in the 1990s. He finally sold it to me almost 10 years ago and I have enjoyed raising my 3 kids on this large parcel that is SO close to Asheville, but you feel so far away from the hustle and bustle of the city, but it's minutes away if you want to jump into everything the city has to offer.

I have been making constant improvements to the home and property making it an amazing find and one of the most unique homes you'll find in the area. Most recently, the home and garage/barn have been completely painted inside and out. The 5th Bathroom is also completed in the lowest level which provides a common entrance for the 4 bedrooms that don't have their own private bathroom. It's been a real benefit for larger groups.

I'm a single father of 3, own a business in Asheville and got involved in rental property about 15 years ago. This property will be in my family forever and we take excellent care of the grounds and anything that needs attention.

Pourquoi avoir choisi cet hébergement ?

This property is very private, it can accommodate large groups and there is plenty of room to spread out inside and out of the home.

SMALL EVENTS may be approved but are limited to 25-30 guests due to space and parking limitations and may incur a small event fee based on booking details and the specifics of the events. Lots of intimate weddings, rehearsal dinners, and small parties.

It is so close to everything Asheville has to offer, all while staying in a century old home that is one of a kind. Keep in touch as all proceeds from this property are going back into continued improvements and amenities.

Quels sont les atouts de cet hébergement ?

Next to the Main house is a separate cottage that is now included in the rental and a great peaceful get-a-way for newly weds, grandparents, in-laws, or parents with a small child that wants a very quiet and private space...but is only steps from the main house. It has a separate bathroom, kitchen and living room. The front covered porch and the back patio at the cottage are a nice retreat from the main house.
