Looking for a place that you can go to and get away from it all or maybe a place where your family can “reconnect”? Look no further, you have found just the place. Our home is located in Leicester, just a short 20 minute drive to Asheville (and no scary roads). We have a saying, "Close enough to Asheville to enjoy; and far enough away from Asheville to enjoy!

Come enjoy the spectacular views of rolling knolls and picturesque mountains (70 miles view). Enjoy the quiet of the country where wildlife and wildflowers abound. We have turkey, deer, rabbits and an occasional bear show up on our driveway cam.

The home is situated on 6+ acres, has over 3000 square feet of living space and is tastefully decorated. Dogs are allowed with a 2 dog limit. There is a large dog run in the yard plus dog kennels in the garage for when you are not on the premise (if your pet has separation anxiety).

The main floor has a large kitchen, perfect for a large get together, a breakfast nook, dining area, living room (wood burning fireplace), and the primary bedroom. There is a covered screened in porch off of the living room and primary bedroom. Did we mention the wonderful views from the over-sized windows?
