Location, location, location. Separate entrance! Off street parking! Full kitchen and washer/dryer for a super-comfy stay.
Stroll just 2 blocks to town from the studio, the lower level of my Montford home. My neighborhood is beautiful and historic, with mature trees and lots of flowers, but my home was built in 2001 and the studio was completely renovated in 2018.

Although close to expressways for easy access, the studio is very quiet - no highway noise to disturb you. Neighbors come and go, of course. And the ice-cream truck usually tootles by on Thursdays...maybe you recall that classic tune.

Enjoy the airy living area - kitchen, dining table/chairs, bar stools at the large granite kitchen island/counter, and a comfy sofa that converts into a pillow-top queen bed.

The cozy sleeping area features a king bed, built-in bookcases - full of books and games - and a pair of green chairs that remind me of Goodnight Moon...

The kitchen is fully equipped - dishes, glasses of all kinds, flatware, cookware and utensils - down to a vegetable peeler and lemon squeezer! You won't have to go shopping for coffee/tea, sugar/honey, eggs, oatmeal, yogurt, cheese and crackers, olive oil, vinegar and condiments - all provided for you on arrival. My guests will also enjoy a welcome treat from a range of possibilities. We'll talk!

Other amenities include TV, WIFI, toiletries, blow dryer, first aid kit, washer/dryer, detergent & dish soap & pods for the mini-dishwasher, cleaning supplies and a new large room air filter, just in case those fires get across the mountains. So far, so good.

Rest assured, I launder everything between guests - not just sheets/ towels, but also mattress pad, duvet cover, bath mat and little kitchen rug.. Every time. Just as I would like it to be!

It's just a 5 minute walk up Flint St. and you're in downtown Asheville. You can enjoy our delightful restaurants, shops, independent bookstores, an indie movie theater and several rooftop bars with spectacular views. Don't forget the drum circle Friday evenings - genuine local color and fun!

Just 2 blocks down Starnes (the other direction) is our sweet neighborhood coffee/tea emporium, High Five, with free wifi and friendly folks. Across the street from it is Little Jumbo's, a terrific pub with a New Orleans feel. Monday and Tuesday are jazz nights - locals hang out, including me! Two more blocks and you are in Whole Foods, next to Trader Joe's and across a street from Harris Teeter, the big supermarket. Look ma - no car!

A favorite cafe catering mostly to locals, All Day Darling, is just a 5 minute walk through my historic Montford neighborhood. Tall Johns and Nine Mile are just a bit further. No car necessary, but the parking is easy.

Fully renovated in 2018, as noted above, the studio is now a short term rental after being a home for friends/tenants for 3 years. Although they could hear some movement from my living space above, it didn't bother them. I will observe quiet hours between 9:30 pm and 8:30 am during your stay. The space is not baby-proofed and probably not suitable for kids under 12.

As the reviews indicate, I love helping my guests have their best time in Asheville and the surrounding area. Fair warning: I visited and ... moved here!

    I can’t say enough about how welcoming and accommodating our host, (Anita) was. She provided local treats for us to enjoy during our stay, and made the entire experience wonderful. The property is located in the Montford Historic District, which is a very short walk into the downtown area of Asheville, which provides easy access to dozens of restaurants, breweries/bars, shops and museums! The property was absolutely gorgeous and very well appointed. The bed was extremely comfortable and the linens were top drawer. There is a full sized refrigerator and stove, which provides additional conveniences. The property was absolutely immaculate and so spacious and cozy. We loved our stay of 3 nights and will definitely be back. This place and the proprietor is Amazing! Thanks so much for a lovely stay.

    Description was spot on! This stay was the perfect compliment to our few day stay to explore Asheville! Easy walk into downtown, located in quiet historic neighborhood with it’s own cute coffee shops & restaurants. Anita was very communicative, and thought of everything to make the accommodations perfect- highly recommend staying here & we will do so if ever back in the area!

    We cannot say enough about what a lovely place this is to stay. The owner could not have been kinder or more attentive to our needs. We were welcomed with some local treats and a beautiful and clean place to stay. The distance to downtown and UNCA was ideal. We hope to return soon!

    Our stay was incredible! Anita went above and beyond to make us feel welcome and to ensure we had everything we needed for an enjoyable stay! Furthermore, we benefitted from her recommendations in and around town, from restaurants, coffee shops, breweries, hikes, places to shop, and so much more. Check in and check out were seamless largely due to Anita’s stellar communication and attention to detail. We highly recommend staying with Anita if you are looking to have adventures in downtown Asheville!

    The studio was in an excellent location…2 blocks from downtown Asheville and a few blocks from Trader Joe’s, Whole Foods, and Harris-Teeter (a Kroger-owned) grocery store. Close to the Reed Creek Greenway for an excellent, peaceful walk each morning. Close to the Botanical Gardens and the UNCA Farmers Market each Saturday. It was a very safe location! Anita, the host, was friendly, welcoming, and provided us with an immense list of her favorite restaurants, hikes, and other things to do in and around Asheville. She has lots of literature for all of these things…like her own AVL Visitor Center! ? The place was clean and comfy. Having a washer and dryer in-house was so convenient! Thanks for a great stay, Anita!

    After a 4 night mini vacation in Asheville we realized we should of stayed longer. Anita's property was perfect size and location for walking into Downtown and exploring the Montford District. The apartment was so well appointed with everything we would need for a comfortable stay. I appreciated the extra touches like veggies from her garden, eggs, and coffee. The bed was super comfortable. Online pictures were exactly as we experienced. Anita was a great host with communication prior and during our stay. We loved all the tips and recommendations she offered from restaurants and things to see and do. Great to get a local perspective. Looking forward to our next visit.

    My stay was absolutely wonderful. The studio is charming and has all the necessities. Anita is a gracious, caring and informative host. Not only did she keep me in cut flowers, she also had items in the refrigerator so I wouldn't have to shop right away. The house is within easy walking distance of downtown Asheville, as well as the highway. The neighborhood is filled with wonderful houses and beautiful flowers. This property is a real find! I am so glad I stayed here! Anita, thank you so much.
