Multiple porches and a back patio are framed by rhododendrons and native perennials, creating a peaceful retreat in one of Asheville’s most beloved neighborhoods. Enjoy Montford’s welcoming community; from garden parties and studio strolls to outdoor dining and evening walks along the tree-lined streets and colorful historic architecture. Currently operating as a mid-term rental, 80 W. Chestnut offers a unique opportunity to own a home in Montford that can serve as both an investment property and a personal retreat; an ideal place to enjoy Asheville while visiting family and friends or spending time in the mountains.
