Your "home", built as a large family residence in the 1900s, is now a part of the Grove Park neighborhood of North Asheville, close to downtown and convenient to Biltmore Estate. One of the earliest houses built in the area, it rests comfortably on a small rise surrounded by nearly an acre of lawns, shurbs and trees. The furnishings of antiques, family heirlooms and unusual pieces decorate the luxurious but comfortable rooms. Lovely linens and European bedding combined with mixes of charming old silver and china settings adds to your pampered stay. From the columned, wraparound front porch, the oak and dogwood trees frame your view of the mountains surrounding Asheville.
