Historic Montford House | Historical Award Winning Cottage in Montford 2 Blocks to Downtown

2 Bedroom House in Historic Montford, Asheville

Proud to be a Victorian, the Sallie Lee Cottage is an exquisite example of the architectural wonders of the late 1800s. Around 1880, Sallie Lee built a stick-style Victorian cottage on Ashland Avenue. In doing this, she became the first woman to own a home in Western North Carolina. The cornerstone of this beautiful home centers around the exterior architectural displays of lines, angles, and ornate grids. Furthermore, the interior is equally exceptional, centering around its unique triangular fireplace; which results a distinct Latin cross floor plan.
The home boasts two bedrooms and one full bath. The Butterscotch Room has a fully functioning gas fireplace and access to the Mahogany Tea Room. The Tea Room is bathed in sunlight and offers access to the homes' two front porches! Enjoy a warm cup of tea relaxing in a vintange velvet chair. Lastly, the Terracotta Room has a full sized wardrobe which was built using the original flooring pulled from the home during the restoration process. Each bedroom has a brand new queen sized bed and plenty of natural light.
The bathroom offers a full sized bathtub and shower, plush towels and essential toiletries, just in case!
The cozy living room is inviting for great conversation centered around the gas fireplace. Shared with the dining space, the home also utilizes Google Home for anything and everything the internet has to offer.
The unique floor plan continues in to the kitchen where you will find the cabinets completely stocked and ready for any chef!
The property offers off-street parking with a private driveway and fits up to two vehicles. Additional parking available.

Summary: Justin & Christina's place is exactly what we needed in between two work trips. It was the perfect urban R&R, conveniently located blocks from downtown Asheville. You wouldn't think it for a second though, with the shaded bamboo surrounding the private driveway on the quaintest one-way street. We really didn't have a single surprise, except the ironic concern "its an old house, wonder if the a/c will work well in the dead of summer?"... boy did it! I'm a total dud and couldn't figure out how to keep it at 74, but this was an unexpected treat! Old house, modern stay! While we're pretty easy with needs, we did notice the house was equipped with literally anything you could need. My favorite thoughtful detail being the dark makeup towels keeping the main ones fresh for others. Just a delightful stay, and they also answer questions along the way. Thanks!
