Winterpast

Let the seasons pass you by in the comfort and luxury of Winterpast. Pull through the gate and round the corner to your own private mansion on a mountaintop. Take in the Blue Ridge Mountains and Swannanoa Valley from inside the house with the expansive windows, or on the double-layer back decks. Full of light and immaculately cleaned, this home is just what you need for the perfect getaway. With sleeping spaces with queen beds on both levels, this home is perfect for two couples looking to adventure in the Asheville area, while still having some space to themselves. Venture down the spiral staircase to the lower level - where you’ll find a custom wine-tasting room that will leave you feeling transported to a cellar in Tuscany. Gather your group for your private tasting, uncorking a bottle of your favorite wine brought from home, or your new favorite selected from one of our local wineries. Try a bottle of "Circles" from Pleb Urban Winery in the River Arts District, a pinot gris and sauvignon blanc blend with its distinct notes of tropical punch Now and Laters, on the decks as you watch the sunset. Or perhaps, sip a classic Merlot from the Biltmore Winery in front of the roaring gas fireplace in the main living room. Prepare your meals in the gourmet kitchen with sparkling granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, a gas range, double ovens, and well-stocked cabinets. On your first night unpack takeout from Sake Sushi in the Village of Cheshire and dig into a bowl of buckwheat soba, a sweetheart roll, and a hibachi dish as you relish in your time together. After dinner, spend some time soaking in the 4-seater hot tub on the lower deck as the sun sets over the Blue Ridge Mountains in the distance. Merely five minutes from downtown Black Mountain and the interstate, this home has an amazing location. Spend some time enjoying all of what Black Mountain has to offer. Start your morning off right with breakfast at Louise’s Kitchen - try their thick-cut challah French Toast or Smoked Pork Quesadillas on the porch of a Victorian home. Browse the plethora of antique shops, locally curated staples, and clothing stores that line the streets of downtown. Pick up a sweet treat at The Hop or Kilwin’s as you wander leisurely through town. House Layout: Main Floor- Living room with gas logs, dining seats 8; great kitchen with gas cooktop; a full hall bath; a bedroom with a queen bed, an enclosed sun porch with a futon; deck with gas grill. Downstairs- a bedroom with a queen bed; a full hall bath; a den with a twin pullout chair, gas logs, and large screen TV; deck with hot tub; wine "tasting" room. Please note: No pets and no smoking on the property. This home has a bear deterrent system that is similar to a motion-sensor light. The system uses a faux dog bark to scare away bears when they approach the house, and guests may hear this sound upon arrival. The jukebox in the lower level den is not functional.
