Furnished 2BR, 1BA Apartment. Available December 1. Seeking 3 - 6 month lease (longer is negotiable). This fully furnished 2BR, 1 BA apartment is part of a duplex. It's at ground level, with a separate apartment upstairs on the 2nd level (outside entrances for each and no connection inside). It is a unique space, with very high ceilings and good natural lighting, beautiful wood floors, tall windows, and a loft bedroom accessed via an antique library-style ladder that overlooks the open floor plan living room and kitchen. Outside you're surrounded by nature -- enjoy the babbling stream, spacious yard including 10 acres of forest, large deck, and gorgeous mountain views! The house is situated in a sparsely settled rural area about 5 minutes from downtown Weaverville and even closer to grocery stores, banks, and other shopping. It's 15 min to downtown Asheville. The main bedroom has a King bed, a dresser, a closet with hangers, and a smart TV (Roku). There are full blinds to allow for sleeping in. The 2nd bedroom has a Queen bed and is in a loft that is open to below (no walls), but it has a tall railing around it except for where the ladder enters the space. There is a cozy reading beanbag chair in the room and a shelf system with cubbies to use for clothing storage (no closet). There is one full bathroom with a large shower, including a hand sprayer and seats. There is a washer and dryer hooked up and ready for use; with built-in storage shelves. The large kitchen has all the appliances and supplies you'd need: fridge, dishwasher, oven, microwave, coffee maker, blender, pots and pans, utensils, bowls, plates, cups, etc. There is room for cooking in this kitchen with all the counter space and good lighting! The dining table seats four and is situated within the open-floorplan space. There is a dedicated workspace with a sit-stand desk, adjustable desk lamp, high-speed internet, surge protector, and a cushioned standing pad, with an amazing view outside. The house has mini-split wall units that are efficient and provide heat and AC (separate system from the upstairs apartment). In winter, relax in cozy chairs by the sweet little wood-burning stove. There is a deck on the back of the house (private, not shared) that is outfitted with comfortable lounge chairs, a 4-seat dining table and umbrella, and a gas grill.
