About this property

Unique Home on Stilts in Hip West Asheville – Minutes from Downtown

Welcome to Grandview Retreat!

WHY I FELL IN LOVE – AND YOU WILL, TOO
As soon as I saw this home, positioned high in the air on stilts, I was intrigued. When I opened the front door and saw the gorgeous views of the River Arts District, downtown and the Blue Ridge Mountains beyond, I was sold.

The house is in a lovely neighborhood and just minutes away from great restaurants in West Asheville and downtown.

WHAT MAKES GRANDVIEW RETREAT SPECIAL?

I love this house and have taken great care to make it comfortable and inviting for you. This 1600 square foot home has been carefully decorated for your enjoyment. There are a collection of photos from a local artist and unique furnishings and artwork from many local Asheville merchants.

There is a relaxing family room to enjoy time with your friends or family. The open kitchen is perfect if you decide to stay in for the evening. The expansive deck has a comfortable seating area, a dining area and grill. The view has to be seen to be believed.

There is a cozy den with French doors - perfect for privacy during a zoom call.

My home has three bedrooms and two full baths upstairs. Curl up on your Sealy pillow top mattress and luxuriate in silky Cuddledown sheets.

The master suite has a queen size bed and shower/tub combination. This bedroom features beautiful long range views.

The other two bedrooms share a bathroom. One bedroom has a queen size bed and the other bedroom has two twin size beds.

WHY CHOOSE WEST ASHEVILLE?

This neighborhood is full of the quirky charm that is part of what makes Asheville so unique. There is a mix of houses: old ones, new ones, large homes and small homes. Many are painted in fun colors. There is a great house around the corner that features a beautiful mural on the garage door. In some places in would be out of place, but in West Asheville, it fits right in.

West Asheville has many wonderful and unique restaurants, bars and stores which you will enjoy. However, it is also just five minutes away from both the River Arts District (home to an astonishing array of artist galleries and some of Asheville’s best restaurants) as well as downtown Asheville.

WHO SHOULD CHOOSE MY HOME?

This place is perfect for an individual or couple who want a comfortable, welcoming place for their extended stay in Asheville. (No partying please—I like my neighbors!)

I look forward to hosting you soon!

Gem!

Grandview Retreat and our host Julie were absolutely terrific. Located on a short, quiet street in a quiet, transitional neighborhood, the house was fresh, clean, and bright. We like to cook, and the kitchen was so well stocked with pots and pans, dishes, bakeware, utensils, and spices, it was like being at home. We both work remotely, so we appreciated the fast, reliable internet service. The beds were the most comfortable we’ve ever slept in. With a spectacular view of the City of Asheville, the location was fabulous! It felt like we were always within an easy 10-minute or less drive to anywhere we wanted to go. It was also very walkable. One of us is a regular walker, and it was delightful to be able to walk down the hill to the popular French Broad River Greenway, along the FBRG, and then back up the other side of the hill. Julie was just a text away when we had a question or needed anything and she always responded promptly and helpfully.

Fabulous Stay!

We were very fortunate to stay in Julie’s house for 4 months between June & September 2022. The view of the mountains & River Arts District from the deck is spectacular. The house was immaculate and well stocked. The bedrooms were spacious and extremely comfortable. The location allowed us to walk into West Asheville to many great local restaurants and craft breweries and we were only a short drive to downtown Asheville. Julie was a terrific host and very responsive to the few minor issues that came up. We already miss the house and can’t wait to return next summer!

Mountain sunshine with your morning coffee

This bright, beautiful, comfortable home, literally perched on a ridge overlooking the French Broad River with the downtown skyline in the distance, is ideal for an extended stay. It is located in a quiet residential neighborhood, but is just minutes from a myriad of art galleries, restaurants, music venues and craft breweries in West Asheville, the River Arts District, and Downtown. After a month we wished we could have stayed longer.

Awesome property - would definitely stay here again!

From the moment I stepped through the front door, I felt immediately at home. This home is exactly as depicted in the photos. Great location (<20 minutes from everything), quiet neighborhood, fabulous view of the city and mountains. Comfortable in every way. My visiting friends were all very impressed with "my Asheville home" and thoroughly enjoyed their time in the city. Wonderful property, and excellent hostess.

About the host

Hosted by Julie Obenauer

I fell in love with Asheville on my very first visit. I love the people, the unique character, the food and the beauty of the mountains.

Food is my hobby – I love to eat, cook, read about food and talk about food. That makes Asheville pretty much nirvana for me. Bon Appetit magazine recently called Asheville “the best small city to eat and drink right now”.

There are so many great places to eat and drink here that you will never want to leave. I am excited to share my home with you so you can experience all charm of this special city.
