14 mi to Asheville - convenience with privacy, 8 Acres, Hot Tub & Mtn Views | House in Barnardsville

Update 2024:
I've taken my own advice to "Work Remotely here" and happy to continue sharing the Chalet while I continue to travel throughout the year.
Please reach out with date requests!
- High-speed Wi-Fi, solid cell reception, desks, office chair, and printer provided.
The Chalet's modest entry and foyer lead to a dramatically open Living Room: cathedral ceilings with a wall of windows open to the gigantic deck and views beyond!
Modeled after a Swiss Chalet and designed for both comfort and entertaining, this custom-built Passive Solar home has generously sized rooms with an abundance of spaces to gather, as well as spots for more intimate relaxation. It is all welcoming, yet cozy.
The decks draws everyone outdoors to the mountain and pastoral views at “bird level”. Plenty of seating options, a gas grill, and a gate at the top of the stairs… enjoyable at all hours of the day!
Retire to one of 2 East wing bedrooms sharing a bathroom, or to the Master Suite featuring a bath with double-sink and a huge walk-in shower. The Sweet Suite apartment on the lower level is accessed through the Rec Room and has a private bedroom, bathroom, and 2nd Kitchen (the sleeper sofa is in the apartment living area).
A 65” smart TV, ping pong table, bar tables and stools, and seating area span the Recreation Room.
The hot tub is just steps from the Recreation Room, where the patio leads to a level grassy area and space for yard games overlooking a private 8 acres.
Our home combines modern conveniences with original features, creating character and ambiance not found anywhere else. There are areas in need of cosmetic "updates", no doubt about that! The dream renovation is still in the planning phase. For now, everything functions as it should and we welcome your design suggestions!
The Kitchen and baths are fully functional with a fun, groovy esthetic - all cabinets were built by the original owner in what had been his wood workshop downstairs.
The Chalet is a peaceful escape, so close to all things Asheville, and unquestionably one of the most unique vacation homes in the area.
We hope you’ll enjoy the views, privacy, and access to Asheville this property has to offer as much as we do.
Access is by Interstate and 4 miles on a state highway. This is an easy drive with no steep and winding mountain roads.
Accommodations for 8 in Queen beds, 2 more on a sleeper sofa.
* Sleeping options for for the 11th/12th guests are not beds:
- Rec Room sofa and loveseat

The Caretakers' cottage is conveniently on the same road, nearby should any issues arise.
