About this property
Ecusta Manor, Steps from the Ecusta Trail, Walk to Downtown
Book your stay at the Ecusta Manor where you'll be just steps away from the upcoming Ecusta Trail, as well as Lennox Station, home to Trailside Brewing, Appalachia Coffee, and Ecusta Market & Cafe (the market will be open by mid-August & cafe by mid-October).
Bring your bikes, bring your kids, bring your friends! This is THE iconic home of Hendersonville's historic Lenox Park neighborhood. A short walk to downtown, guests can enjoy everything Hendersonville has to offer.
This enchanting 4-bedroom, 2-bath home offers comfortable sleeping arrangements for up to 8 people. The rooms feature 100% cotton sheets with quilted toppers for a fantastic night’s sleep! All four bedrooms can be found upstairs, one with an en-suite bathroom. The second bathroom is downstairs, so please be aware that three of the four bedrooms will share this bath. Three of the bedrooms offer queen-sized beds and one of the rooms has two twin beds. Each bedroom is equipped with extension cords for extra power outlets so you can easily charge your devices, as well as heavy, velvet, light-blocking curtains in case your vacation plans include sleeping in late.
While the bones of this house are old, the kitchen and bathrooms have been updated for more modern comfort. How do you like your coffee in the morning? Keurig? Full-pot? French Press? The Ecusta Manor has you covered and also offers complimentary tea, cocoa and a fully-stocked kitchen with plenty of cookware and ample spices. Grillmasters will appreciate the large gas grill on the back deck. Bring your meal to the elegant dining room or, if the weather is nice, feast outside on the covered, wrap-around porch.
Enjoy your morning rocking on the sun porch or reading a book in the foyer. Take a stab at playing the piano for your friends and family or take a stroll through the lovely neighborhood. There’s a park and playground right around the corner! The quaint backyard is the perfect place for yard-games. The brewery across the street is kid and dog-friendly, as is the Ecusta Manor. :)
The living room is the ultimate gathering place. Spacious and gorgeously decorated, you’ll love coming together to watch a movie on the large smart TV. Curl up under one of the throw blankets and enjoy your evening before a day of exploring the area.
Our home is near breweries, vineyards, downtown dining and shopping, and close to historic Flat Rock where you can find the Carl Sandburg home.
This home is:
*Steps from the Ecusta Trail - a 19.2 mile trail connecting Hendersonville, NC to Brevard, NC. Please note the trail is still under construction with the first six miles slated to be finished by the end of 2024.
*Across the street from Lennox Station where you can find Trailside Brewing, Appalachia Coffee, The Grove Cocktail Bar, & the Ecusta Market & Cafe (the market will be open in mid-August and the cafe in mid-October).
*Less than a mile to the heart of downtown Hendersonville
*A two minute drive to the Fresh Market and Publix.
*Less than 5 minutes to quiet Laurel Park where you can find Southern Streams Coffee and the most adorable playground complete with mini sandbox castle!
*30 minutes to either Brevard, NC or Asheville, NC - easy to day trip to either, or both!
Guest Access:
Guests have full access to the property, with the exception of the host's storage closet and garden shed.
Other Things to Note:
There is an en-suite bathroom in the "master" upstairs, but the other three bedrooms share a bathroom downstairs. Please make sure you are ok with using the stairs should you need to use the restroom once you retire to your room for the night.
A new large capacity washer and dryer are available for guest use.
Propane is provided for the barbecue on the deck.
This home is located in a quiet residential neighborhood so we ask guests to keep noise to a minimum after 10pm.
The owners only live ten minutes away, and are always available if any issue arises.

About the host
Hosted by Emily Gunn

Hi there! I live in the beautiful mountains of WNC with my husband and three lovely daughters. We are budding homesteaders who love to cook together, garden together and hike. We haven’t traveled much lately as we have been building our family but we look forward to exploring the world again very soon! In the meantime we are working on building our new business in Hendersonville, NC (Ecusta Market & Cafe) as well as sharing our lovely, Victorian home with new guests.
Why they chose this property
We are opening a local market and cafe just a stone's throw away from this home, and it has always been our favorite house in the neighborhood. One day out of the blue it came up for sale, and we knew we had to jump on it. The previous owners did a lot of renovations to it, and we invested a small fortune into even more renovations and making it a truly unique home with lots of interesting art and furniture, and rich, historically appropriate paint colors. We are so proud of what the house has become now and hope to keep sharing it with travelers for years to come.
What makes this property unique
The photos speak for themselves! This historic home is absolutely gorgeous and truly feels like you're stepping back in time.
