About this property
Minutes from Downtown & Parkway with Arcade Room!
Location, Location, Location! This home sits perfectly between city and nature being 5 minutes to downtown and the parkways entrance. It is in a quiet friendly neighborhood. With great WiFi it is also great for working travelers. We have visits from black bears, hawks, foxes, & turkeys often. The owner has taken great care to make the place feel like home. With the charms of the vintage Jukebox and video arcade games for fun.
The screened porch has a celling fan and outdoor table and chairs to relax. You may even catch a Hawk or Bear sighting! We are so close to the parkway they can be seen wandering around the neighborhood! (along with turkey, foxes and sometimes deer). Kitchen has stainless steel appliances. Refrigerator with freezer and ice/water dispenser, dishwasher and coffee cart with coffee and tea selections. The dining area has a beautiful blue ridge mountain mural that can also be seen from the living area. The living area has an L shaped couch that pulls out into a queen sized bed. We have a vintage Jukebox that you can play the old school records on and hear that classic record crackle! The home & TV have wifi ready for you to work on a laptop from home or just use for streaming. You can log into any of your streaming choices (also there is a free streaming channel). There is also a blue ray player for DVDs. It is a quiet neighborhood that you can come and relax at the house. The Arcade room is filled with old school games like Mrs Pacman, Golden Tee and Supermario brothers! Quarters will be provided for play. ( You are welcome to request more for exchange in cash) The bedrooms are simple and clean with memory foam mattresses and blackout curtains. Extra cozy blankets are in the closets with iron, ironing board and hangars. Parking is easy there is a covered carport area for one car and more paved driveway parking. Easy turn around. There is also the covered front porch with a rocking bench that sits nicely in the afternoon sun.
The parking area has space for 2 cars. One under a carport area and the driveway.

What makes this property unique
I think the location is the best benefit its located close to downtown Asheville, the Parkway, and only 15 minutes for the adorable town of Black Mountain. The on ramp to the interstate is also only 2 minutes away. I also have some awesome vintage video arcade games and a Jukebox! If you love dogs my sweet lab lives here with me and he roams the property. I even have treats in the house for you to give him.
