Luxury 8acres professionally decorated, hot tub, outdoor kitchen 15min Asheville
Welcome to Emerald Heron! Events cannot be booked on VRBO but must be booked on our emeraldheron website. Custom 3500 sq ft craftsman on over 8 acres. High speed cable internet. 10 min to the heart of Weaverville and 15 min to Asheville. Relax in privacy, or stroll down to the small pond and pavilion or take a walk on the path around the barn. Amazing outdoor deck living area centered around a gorgeous stone fireplace. Dine casually outside on the deck, at the big kitchen island, or at the copper table in the dedicated dining room. Grill and cook at the outdoor kitchen which adjoins an outdoor lounge area featuring a hot tub, fire pit and water feature. Pick some veggies in the kitchen garden (season permitting). Relax in the hot tub after watching your favorite movie in surround sound in the media room where the custom plush large leather sectional, bar and shuffle board provide a great place to socialize and entertain. Sneak away to the private study with daybed or soak in the lovely freestanding tub in the Master bath. Bose music systems on each TV - located on the Deck, inside Living Room, and in the Media Room. Each bedroom is in its own area of the home - the Master on main floor, the Queen on other side of home on Main Floor, upstairs King room, and downstairs King room. Please note the upstairs bedroom does not have a bathroom on that floor and guests will need to go down one flight of stairs to access bathroom. We have a ring doorbell at the front door, and a camera at top driveway in front of garage. Cameras that are on property but far from and do not have a view to home - one at the bottom of hill near driveway entrance, in front of barn, trail camera on game trail in woods. We use these for safety and to report to you if we see any bears (we see roughly 1 per year).

This is a beautiful property. Very quiet and relaxing. Super clean and the quality of everything in the house is top notch. Would stay here again in a heart beat!
We loved this remarkable home and property and would recommend it to anyone who is looking for a quiet retreat. It is very spacious with both multiple indoor and outdoor spaces to enjoy.
This is the best rental we've ever had!!! The pictures don't do the house and property justice. Beautiful setting and landscaping. The house is beautiful and the interior is professionally decorated. It could be featured on HGTV.. The lower level of the home is just as impressive as the main floor with a commercial shuffleboard table among other amenities.
Almost forgot, there are huge screen TVs everywhere.
I could go on and on about the outdoor areas on two levels. A wonderful large covered deck with fireplace and dining area upper, and professional grilling station, waterfall, and firepits lower..
Shay is the owner and she is truly a delightful person. Responsive and accommodating. We were lucky enough to meet her and have time to visit. Shay, thank you for all you did and for taking the time for your thoughtful favors for us. WE WILL BE BACK!

About the host
Hosted by Shay Taylor
The Taylor Family loves the Western North Carolina mountains and is planning to add lavender fields, a chicken chateau, and some additional gardens to this large old tobacco farm.
Why they chose this property
We share the Emerald Heron to vacation renters from time to time. However, we are there much of the time as we find this property to be relaxing, beautiful, healing and a lot of fun. We don't rent this home out often, and we don't rent to large groups. Therefore, the condition of the property is maintained at an excellent level.
What makes this property unique
Close to everything Asheville, Weaverville and the surrounding areas have to offer, but very peaceful and quiet. All furnishings are new (except for the antiques, paintings, art and some interesting old items which you will delight in discovering as you meander about the house). There are numerous places to sit and read, converse, listen to music, and watch TV. The property is walk-able and you may see a fox, various birds, frogs, our resident green herons, and more!
