This is a beautiful, modern place so close to downtown and yet in a quiet neighborhood. You have your own parking space. The space is spotlessly clean, with thoughtful touches such as coffee and water. The beds are very comfortable, and there’s a big comfy living area too. Overall it was a perfect weekend for my daughter and me to visit Asheville, hike, shop and reconnect. We will be back!! Thank you!!!

We really liked the location. The owners are really nice. They have a wonderful dog that loves to be petted. We enjoyed our time there, but would love to have had some sort of a table for breakfast or just to sit at. Maybe a folding table or a TV dinner folding type trays? There really was no place to eat cereal, a muffin or something. We didn't want to sit on the couch and risk getting it dirty. Everything else was wonderful.

About the host

Hosted by Justin Mitchell

Host profile image
Justin and Autum are professionals in the community and deeply involved in the outdoor recreation, health / wellness and music community. They have a wealth of knowledge on what to do around Asheville and love to share their "do not miss" trails, restaurants, waterfalls and breweries.

Justin is a local Realtor, mountain biker, stand up paddle boarder, DJ and all around outdoor enthusiast. In the eighteen years he's called Asheville home, he's ridden/hiked or raced every trail within an hour's drive and floated the French Broad from Brevard to Hot Springs, NC. With 25 years of experience as a full time real estate broker his knowledge of downtown and the surrounding areas runs deep. And as a beer and food lover, he's happy to share where to grab a great pint, slice of pizza or fine dining experience.

Autum is the expert in health & wellness options around town and is an acupuncturist and yoga instructor and has taught or practiced at Asheville top yoga studios and she both practices acupuncture and has taught classes at local massage schools.

Why they chose this property

As someone who would prefer to walk or bike most places, I searched for the right piece of land for two years before purchasing this lot. I spent the next 2 years designing the home and construction took over a year. It is truly a one of a kind property that is built around our lifestyle and offers a deep connection to our city and the mountains. Immerse yourself in the vibrant East End/Valley Street neighborhood, where history and diversity come alive. Explore Asheville on foot with the most bike-friendly and pedestrian-friendly street in town right at your doorstep. Catch a baseball game at the Asheville Tourist Baseball Stadium or embark on scenic adventures along the Baucatcher Greenway trails, just a short stroll away. Indulge in culinary delights and craft brews at White Lab Kitchen & Taps, conveniently within a 5-minute walk. Another 5 minutes in that direction, and you will find yourself in the heart of South Slope District, where most of Asheville's award-winning craft breweries reside, along with a plethora of culinary delight. And with a historical pedestrian bridge connecting you directly to downtown Pack Square and Eagle Street, you'll have easy access to all the excitement Asheville has to offer. Experience walkability like never before in the heart of Asheville's rich cultural tapestry!

What makes this property unique

We choose comfort, style, and attention to detail. Having traveled worldwide and stayed in various hotels, STRs, hostels, BnBs, and Villas. We strive to create a place that we would love to stay in.
