Looking for a place with the calm and quiet of a mountain cabin, yet 3.5 miles from downtown? Our house rests in a quiet mountain neighborhood on 1.3 acres of forest with views of the French Broad River and plenty of space to play and explore! Take a walk out the door down to the old barrel road next to the Om Sanctuary, from where you might spot the noon train. Upon your return, cool off with a drink on the balcony as deer, turkey vultures, and the occasional bear meander through the yard.
NOTE: This is the top floor only: 2 beds/2 bath. This is for guests who do not need the whole house. While you have only the top floor, you will still have the whole property to yourself; no one will utilize the downstairs.
You can rent both levels by searching for property #2069438.
The front yard and back yard are connected and mostly fenced (75%) with only the back portion open to the the mountain and wildlife preserve. There is a separate fully fenced area 40 ft x 13 ft for dogs with a gate at each end. The front yard is outfitted with an additional gate.
Each room has a queen bed and twin trundle bed. The living room has a sectional sofa with chaise and pullout sofa, and a 55-inch Roku TV. There is an AC unit and ceiling fan in the living room and in each bedroom. We also provide a pack-and-play, high chair, and toys.
The backyard balcony gives great views year-round of the wide open space we call the backyard, the river, wildlife, and the infamous fireflies of the Blue Ridge Mountains. In colder weather, warm your toes by the custom-built flagstone patio and fire pit, complete with a stone bench and seating. Prop your s'mores ingredients, hot cocoa, and other fire pit necessities on the table.
Just minutes to Richmond Hill right down the road, which offers hike and bike trails, and disc golf. Three miles to River Arts District and downtown, 4 miles to the breweries, 5.5 miles to Biltmore, and 9 miles to the Blue Ridge Parkway. We live in a quiet residential neighborhood situated on the French Broad River. At the bottom of our road is the French Broad Outfitters and river access for a variety of activities.
Dogs are welcome for a one-time fee of $50 per dog. Puppies must be crated overnight and when you're not at home. No pets on furniture.
