The bedroom has a bathroom directly across the hall, and the renter will have access to shared living spaces, including the kitchen, living room, and laundry area. The room is fully furnished, and utilities are included for the convenient, predictable monthly expenses. The home has one dog and two cats, so applicants must be comfortable sharing space with pets; the property is pet friendly for an approved pet, subject to discussion and house rules. Located approximately 20 minutes from downtown Asheville and just 5 minutes from downtown Black Mountain, the home offers convenient access to restaurants, shopping, outdoor recreation and local employment.
