UTOPIA LISTINGS
Steampunk Suite (#1022291) Steel Suite (#1022317) USS Utopia (#618035) & The Factory (1022333).
Just a 2mile Uber from Downtown Asheville, Utopia, constructed with a sizable driveway with cameras for guest comfort and safety, appears to be hidden deep in the countryside, teaming with wildlife, noisy with birds. This total industrial style luxury renovation commenced in 2015 incorporating several independent vacation rentals.
Accessible step-free, our most recent work of art is The Factory Suite which accommodates two people in a king size custom locally sourced ambrosia maple bed attached to the wall and suspended by antique steel chain links. Accommodating cotton linens with ironed pillowcases, this bed boasts a superb Tuft & Needle mattress made in North Carolina for an extraordinary night’s sleep. The efficient spot-lit 25ft south wall is entirely clad in an industrial metallic mural that took several months to create and install, littered with locally sourced and signed miniature object d’art. The steel trimmed ambrosia maple and bedside tables support repurposed twin exhaust manifolds flanking a delightful fall color event steel fructus-acidum etched headboard supporting an orange-peel acoustic panel grid to ensure what happens in The Factory, stays in The Factory!
The pair of faux fur butterfly chairs atop a luxurious cowhide concealing radiant floor heat, will enable you to catch-up on the latest movies sitting up or laying down. Extend the wall-mounted TV and you can even view the latest movie from your king bed. Leather clad stools and a steel rimmed table will permit working or dining at the table overlooking a magnificent rural landscape stretching as far as Chunns Cove Farm and frequently visited by Hawkins prowling from power lines.
Thick insulated curtains block or frame beautiful sunsets making The Factory a bright, light suite with a whole west wall of custom Asheville Perdue Studios cast iron factory windows. The port-holed kitchenette is an aesthetic delight rendering scarlet tips and industrial touches fitted with a fridge, toaster oven and kettle with cutlery and dishes.
Past the kitchenette, a pair of lockdown-inspired pocket-doors sheathed in copper, brass, tin and aluminum lead to the bathroom and the walk-in closet. The custom concrete sink and table were poured by Marc, the bathroom shelves were custom adapted by Perdue Studios repurposing 4 juggernaut pedals and the WC shelves were constructed using aluminum and copper 90 degree angles. Opposite the WC hangs a repurposed X-ray machine that now boasts local art accentuating a mirror image! A repurposed lead-framed window is now conveniently a mirror flanked by charming Atlanta sourced Edison bulb light fixtures. A glass shower panel ‘U’ is spot-lit by vertical inlaid strip-lighting while the glass barn-door permits access to the sizable rainfall shower-head daytime-lit by a natural light porthole.
