Located in Asheville, NC - your next getaway is a 5 bedroom, 3 bath home - with plenty of space. Ten minutes from downtown Asheville and the Biltmore Estate, and just 5 minutes from the Blue Ridge Parkway, this home has lots of privacy yet the trip to town is super easy and quick. The short drive from town up to the house is Uber accessible and the perfect introduction to mountaintop living.

Want to wake up to some mountain magic? Along with a queen size bed and full private bath, the queen bedroom has a picture window to soak up the view of trees and sky as they extend towards the horizon. Also wonderful for viewing the stars at night as you go to sleep. The 2nd bedroom has a full bed and the 3rd bedroom has two twin beds. Each room is equipped with reading lamps and ceiling fans. A queen-size sleeper sofa is in the living room with extra sheets and blankets .

The well equipped kitchen with breakfast bar has pots, pans, dishes, glasses, mugs, utensils, coffee pot, toaster, fridge/freezer, oven/stove and opens into the dining room full of natural light.

Enjoy the privacy of a large, fenced backyard while playing on your very own mountain top 'playground’. In summer months our garden can often provide salad veggies, aromatic herbs and hopefully some berries. Fun for kids of all ages to pick and enjoy.

Our house is in the mountains, surrounded by forest, in one of the most biodiverse regions of the planet. Bugs and bears are part of nature. We do our best to live with them in harmony and appreciation.

Getaway for our moms

My husband and I brought are moms to Asheville for a visit to the Biltmore and the a quick trip over to Bryson City to ride the Polar Express. This was the perfect location. Just a short drive to the Biltmore. The house has everything we needed. We appreciated the extras like coffee, creamer, and sugar.

Great stay close to Biltmore

My family attended an event at the Biltmore and this house was the perfect place to house all 8 of us for our NC visit. Spacious house for a group. Although we didn't spend a ton of time at the house due to being at events, I know that it would be the perfect place to just hang out with family and friends.

Great mountain getaway

This house is great for family stays in Asheville. Situated up on a hill, it has space for game time, gathering, a large communal kitchen opening up to a dining room and fantastic outdoor spaces. Check in was a breeze and we were very happy with the house!

Our family enjoyed living in this home for 5 years before deciding to move into town. Karen has 2 daughters, works as a registered nurse, loves bike riding and fostering animals.

Why they chose this property

We fell in love with Avondale Mountain because of it's stunning views, peaceful atmosphere and it's surprisingly close to downtown. Being able to walk to Shoji isn't too bad either!
