A Home with History
Affectionately named Watauga Woods, the home dates back to circa 1910. Previously owned by Kingsland Van Winkle, a notable local attorney instrumental in helping Edith Vanderbilt transfer land that became Pisgah National Forest - the first national forest on the East Coast. This apartment originally housed staff quarters, and every effort has been made to preserve the original architectural charm while offering modern comfort.
Rent is $1450 per month with a $800 deposit. Owner pays all utilities, wifi, streaming services, and house cleaning every two months. 6 month minimum lease, which can be extended.
