About this property
Walking Distance to Downtown Asheville and Brewery District. Park 2 cars onsite.
RIVER ARTS HOME - Cozy, comfortable, close to everything you’re coming to Asheville to see.
This newly renovated home is close to everything! Walk to Downtown Asheville, the South Slope Brewery District and the Depot Street Arts District. The Biltmore Estate is only 2 miles away (5-minute drive.)
The right half of the house is the peaceful bedroom wing. The left side has an open plan living/dining/kitchen with center island where friends and family can gather. Just outside the kitchen is a large deck (with gas grill) that overlooks the peaceful quarter-acre grassy back yard. Nighttime views of distant city lights wrap around all sides of the deck.
A short walk brings you to Depot Street with all its art studios, shops, coffeehouses, breweries, restaurants, bars and music halls.
Downtown and the South Slope (15-20 minute walk, or a short drive) are famous for restaurants and bars and breweries, shops and museums – and too many things to list here. When you reserve a stay at High Ridge Home, you’ll get an extensive list of all the things in and around Asheville that you will want to see and do, as well as a list of favorite restaurants.

The BILTMORE ESTATE is two miles away (a 5-minute drive to the 1 Lodge Street entrance) and Asheville’s restaurants, coffeehouses, museums, art galleries, and live entertainment are even closer. It’s a 20-minute walk or a 3-minute drive to DOWNTOWN. Depot Street is just a 5-minute walk. The house is CLOSE TO EVERYTHING, so you can take a break from sightseeing or shopping to relax at home. Chill out in the over-stuffed outdoor furniture on the deck that overlooks a large back yard or dine al fresco. This is the place to gather on balmy summer evenings to watch the moon rise and to soak up the relaxing atmosphere (the deck is illuminated by low-voltage lighting.) The living room has a large-screen smart TV over the fireplace. Stay in touch with high-speed WiFi.
The kitchen has gorgeous granite countertops, all new appliances and a gas grill just outside – perfect for preparing gourmet meals. The kitchen is stocked with coffee and tea, condiments & spices. Enjoy breakfast at home in your jammies or walk/drive to a nearby art café for a full breakfast.
Fido is welcome – there’s a large back yard. The home also has baby equipment available on request – pack n play crib, high chair, infant bath.
Dozens of amazing antique stores (bargain prices!) are 5-10 minutes away. This central location in a vibrant city neighborhood is within easy reach of everything you want to see and do. Keep fit by walking to one of the best clay tennis courts in the US or at the YWCA (award-winning architectural design.) Golf courses are a short drive away. Shop daily at nearby farmers markets or at various organic grocery stores.
The Owner is always available to answer any question you might have.

Very cozy and comfortable home. We stayed 6 days and no issues. We had everything we needed. Conveniently located to the River Arts District on a quiet street. We had our own parking spot off the street which was nice.
The River Arts Home was the perfect spot for a weekend getaway with our pup! We loved the living area and outdoor space, and it was nice that the back deck was completely enclosed. Nestled right between the River Arts District and downtown Asheville, we were within a mile or two of a plethora of breweries, restaurants, and other fun spots. Even if you aren’t up for walking (it did dip into the 20s while we were there!), everywhere we wanted to go was about a 6 Lyft ride. We also visited Biltmore, and the entrance gate is only about 5 minutes away.Georgia was a wonderful host, and we are already looking forward to our future return!
The host was especially nice and friendly. The location was ideal for walking or short commutes in the car. The place was exceptionally clean and organized. It was a great place to explore Asheville from. Highly Recommended.
This beautiful home was everything we looked for. Comfy, large beds, and an inviting living area. My wife, daughter, and I had a thoroughly enjoyable time. The home is indeed within walking distance to downtown and the brewery district. Georgia kept in contact and frequently checked on us. We greatly appreciated her professionalism and caring.
Unfortunately due to a last minute illness, I was not able to make this trip. However my friends were able to go and had a lovely time. Georgia was very communicative and helpful if we had any questions. Thank you again. I look forward to coming next time.
The property was clean & well equipped. I would not say that is walkable to downtown. The fireplace isn’t operable, and the house Nextdoor has a large septic tank, and broken down car that is adjacent to the patio. If you aren’t bothered by this, then I would rent the property.
