Description

Welcome to Your North Asheville Oasis Nestled beneath the canopy of a spectacular, mature historic tree at the corner of Wildwood and Lockley Avenue, this newly completed, custom-built home is the ultimate sanctuary. Set back on a generously sized, beautiful large yard, this home offers a private park-like feel right in the city. Originally built as a private retreat and family home, we rent it out during academic semesters to university professionals and are now looking for the perfect fit to care for and enjoy it over the summer months. If you are looking for an inspiring, sun-drenched, and peaceful place to call home in Asheville's most coveted neighborhood, you’ve found it. Curated Interiors & Tasteful Art Inside, you will find a home that has been styled with immense love and care. This is not a sterile corporate rental; it is a space designed for comfort and creative inspiration: The Furniture: We have curated a thoughtful mix of sleek, ultra-comfortable brand-new furniture and warm, character-rich antique pieces that ground the space with history and soul. The Art: The walls are adorned with tasteful, hand-selected artwork that complements the incredible natural light passing through the home's high-ceiling windows. High-End Modern Appliances Every utility in the home is completely up-to-date, ensuring your summer stay is as seamless as it is beautiful. Enjoy fully modern, premium appliances throughout, including: A state-of-the-art kitchen range with an integrated exhaust hood. A quiet, high-efficiency standing dishwasher. A large, modern refrigerator. A premium, modern stacked washer and dryer elegantly hidden behind full-height cabinetry. The Neighborhood & Location Located in the heart of historic North Asheville, this home offers the perfect balance of quiet neighborhood charm and urban convenience. The Academic & Outdoors Connection: We are within easy walking and biking distance to the University of North Carolina Asheville (UNCA) campus, including its gorgeous botanical gardens and peaceful walking trails. Downtown Access: Skip the car—it's a scenic, flat bike ride or a 15-minute drive straight into Downtown Asheville to enjoy our world-class culinary, art, and music scenes. Neighborhood Conveniences: We are steps away from the vibrant Merrimon Avenue corridor (home to Trader Joe's, Whole Foods, local favorite restaurants like Nine Mile and Luella's, independent coffee shops, and the historic Grove Park Inn neighborhood). Scenic Beaver Lake is just a short jog north for your morning walks.
