Solace in the City: Private, 2 Bedroom House in an Unbeatable Location!

Read our reviews! Located smack dab in the middle of the bustling Haywood Road corridor on a quiet side street. Our location is unbeatable in Asheville. Park your car in the private driveway and forget about it. Everything you could possibly want is a short walk away. Walk 100 yards to the nearest brewery for a few cold ones. The Hideaway is registered and inspected by the City of Asheville as a LEGAL short term rental. Completely private, 2 bedroom (king/queen), one bath located on the upper level of a duplex. Huge living area, fully stocked kitchen with dedicated dining area and the largest porch on the block will make you feel right at home. Guests also have private access to a fenced backyard with a fire pit, a gigantic front porch and paved driveway with off-street parking for up to three cars. The unit has outdoor appeal but is only a short walk from virtually every downtown convenience imaginable. The closest bars and restaurants are a few hundred feet away!
For added comfort, the Hideaway is equipped with central heating and air.
We also provide locally roasted coffee, cream, sugar and a selection of tea. Check out our handy information board for suggestions on food, drink, hikes, art studios and more! The Hideaway is located within ONE MILE of... bars (x20 plus), restaurants (x25 plus), breweries (x9 at last count), stationary shop, print shop, laundromat, nail salon, hair salon, baby store, consignment shop, vintage clothing store, bike shop, tattoo salons (x3), acupuncture, massage school, yoga studio, fitness center, grocer, market, bakeries(x3), dog park, cafe, coffee roaster, music venues, banks, art studios, mechanic, pawn shop, hardware store...You name it! Its here! Sorry, we do not accept pets of any kind. The Hideaway is cleaned with non-toxic products! In addition to a thorough cleaning, all bed linens are laundered and light switches, handles, and remotes are thoroughly sanitized before each guest visit.
