Welcome to Skyridge Villa, Asheville's mountaintop luxury vacation home, set at 3500' with sweeping views of the Blue Ridge Mountains. Built on 9 private acres of beautiful mountain terrain, the 5,000 square foot custom estate has some of the best long-range views in the county, with over 2000 feet of deck space to enjoy, landscaped surroundings, and an abundance of privacy; all while being a short, easy drive from downtown Asheville and local attractions.

Main Level:

As you enter the estate, you walk into a large family living room with a wood-burning fireplace and panoramic mountain views. To your right, is an oversized Chef's kitchen stocked with cookery and cutlery for preparing meals for your group, connected to a large dining room (seating for 14 at the main table, with an optional second table on the southwest corner of the house), with views in all directions.
Also located on the western side of the main floor is a king suite, with a full bath new mattress and bedding, and a private patio door leading out to the upper-level deck. The eastern wing of the main floor has a second king suite, with a large en suite bath, private patio door, flat-screen TV, and an adjoining nursery complete with crib and changing table.

The northeast corner of the main level has the floor's 3rd bedroom, usually the choice of our younger guests. The room has two sets of lodge style, playhouse bunk beds, providing two twin beds and two full beds, as well as a secret passageway (hidden behind a bookcase) leading to a hidden playroom.

Mid-Level:

Continuing downstairs from the living room to the mezzanine level, you'll find 3 of Skyridge Villa's bedrooms as well as two additional baths. This floor also boasts a large arcade/game room area, with panoramic windows overlooking the mountains. The space is equipped with pub table seating, as well as an array of games. Choose from one of our 5 upright arcade machines, the sitting cocktail arcade (with over 1000 classic games), skeeball, foosball, dual pop-a-shot basketball.
The room in the southeast corner of the house has a queen bed, private patio doors, and sweeping mountain views. The room in the northeast corner has a king bed and flat-screen TV. Both rooms share an en suite bath, and an expansive row of closets.

At the center of the second level, just off the game room, is the atheneum suite, an oversized vintage bedroom. The room boasts a private library of classic literature, a wood-burning stove, and an en suite bath. The room is outfitted with a king bed, as well as a loveseat, to relax by the fire and enjoy a book. Also located on the mezzanine level is Skyridge Villa's private cinema, seating 20 in oversized theatre seating on 4 levels, with an 87" inch 4K TV.

Lower Level:

Continuing down the spiral staircase, to the lower level, you'll find the Villa's final bedroom, which has a king bed, private entrance to the house, and access to a full bath right outside the bedroom.

To the west of the lower level, you'll find Skyridge Villa's private spa. Relax in our built-in steam room or sauna, then cool off in the oversized rainfall shower. You'll find plush spa robes and spa towels. We also supply two in-house massage tables... Schedule an appointment with one of our highly recommended area masseuses, and relax without leaving the house!

Outdoor Areas:
As spacious and entertaining as the 5000 square foot interior is, the pinnacle of the Skyridge experience is the expansive outdoor living. The two-level deck has outdoor dining for 16, a gas-burning fire table overlooking the mountains, and an abundance of seating in either the outdoor living area or the rocking chairs. You'll also find both a propane and charcoal grill, as well as a pizza oven, to use during your visit.
Skyridge Villa has an oversized, jacuzzi hot tub that can seat up to 7 and has long-range mountain views from the back deck.

Near the main entrance is our carport converted into an outdoor game room. Completely covered, and partially enclosed, you can still enjoy the mountain air. You'll find the area equipped with a pool table, darts, and ping pong.

To the west of the property, you'll find Skyridge's garden area. As you continue down, walking through the beautifully landscaped garden, past the pond, you will find a custom-built gazebo with mountain views, a short walk from an outdoor seating area.

Access Road:
The road leading to the house is windy and climbs up the mountain (think: best view!). Part of the road is gravel and there are many rough spots. If you are not used to driving in the mountains then it might be kind of an adventure the first time but no one has ever had a problem reaching our house. An AWD/4WD is definitely not necessary unless there is snow on the ground. Please take your time, go slowly and exercise caution.

Snow:
For winter bookings, please be aware that there is a potential of being snowed-in as if there is significant snow on the road, it could become impassable. We do our absolute best to anticipate this and will communicate any potential changes needed for arrival and departure based on the weather. Please understand that this is out of our control and might require some flexibility in your travel arrangements. This is sometimes part of the Asheville winter adventure and safety is a top priority. Thank you!
The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a kitchen, 6 bathrooms, and a balcony, and there's space to spread out with 7 bedrooms. Guests can expect to find a Smart TV with a DVD player. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a fireplace, and a coffee maker.

Perfect getaway for our friend reunion
This house was perfect for our 20-year friend reunion! As the reviews say, the path up to the house is up a windy, one lane road, but we knew ahead of time and rented cars. But, the path up to the house makes the views worth it! Some of our crew even saw a bear on the way up. And, the house had many amenities to keep our crew of 11 entertained for hours. I had lots of questions leading up to our trip about the house and Julia was super gracious and responded very quickly. 100% would rebook here if we were to come back to the Asheville area.

Beautiful Property
Our extended family of nine stayed for a lovely week in this lovely home in Swannanoa. The bedrooms were spacious and well appointed. The kitchen is a cooks delight - we all take turns cooking for each other and the kitchen was huge with everything we needed to cook for our large family gathering. We were visited by a family of large black bears, a very curious racoon (who appeared on the back porch and really wanted to come inside!), and some deer. We took lots of photos of the wildlife! The sauna, steam room and massage tables were used. We highly recommend Beth Huntzinger for coming up to the house for therapeutic massage therapy! The carport was great to play ping pong and darts in the evenings!! The road up to the house was a little daunting at first - we did not want to meet up with any cars on the road as it is very narrow climbing up the mountain. Fortunately there are very few houses up there! Julia is an amazing host and answered all of our questions very quickly. Its a great house for a large group with a wide variety of activities to do while you are there.

Absolutely stunning views!! The house was perfect for our party of 11 who were celebrating a 50th bday. The game room, comfy living spaces and hot tub was just what we needed for an enjoyable weekend. Spacious kitchen made meals easy to prep/serve. And loved having enough seats to all enjoy meals together at one table. Would definitely stay again!!

Can't beat this place
Me and 11 other guys stayed here for a bachelor party and it was PERFECT! Literally the best rental home I've ever stayed at. This place has everything. A beautiful view of the mountains, some of the best amenities (theater, sauna, arcade games, firepit, etc), comfortable beds, and enough space for everyone. On top of that, the management team was incredible. They were quick to respond to texts, helpful when I had issues, and provided a digital guidebook that was thorough, easy to read, and very useful. And as a little cherry on top, they provided stuff for s'mores and popcorn/candy in the theater. It is a bit off the beaten path, but it's honestly worth it. If I'm ever looking for a place in Asheville again, I'm definitely checking to see if this property is available first.

Great views, rough road
The property was as advertised, great location for an extended family vacation. The only downside was the condition of the road leading to the property. If you want to vacation on a mountain top (views were beautiful), one would expect a bit of a climb. Portions of the road were smooth, but significant stretches were badly potholed which made going very slow.

Great for the whole family
The house was perfect for my family reunion of 10 ranging in ages from 10 to 78. It had plenty of space to comfortably accommodate all of us. The game, movie, and secret rooms were a huge hit with the kids. The view, hot tub, and sauna were great for the adults. I would definitely recommend. The only drawback is the road towards the house. It is a private one lane mostly gravel road. We were able to traverse it with 2 minivans, but a SUV or 4 wheel drive vehicle would be more appropriate.

50th Wedding Anniversary Celebration
This property was exactly what we needed as a family of 14. Plenty of spaces to be together and apart! The arcade, ping-pong, hot tub and theater were used by children and adults. The “secret room” was a favorite of the 10 and unders. We had all our meals at the house. The spacious and generously furnished kitchen made meal preparation a team event. The local male bear even visited the driveway for us many of us to meet. He was quite alouf, and didn’t frighten anyone. But we made sure to remove all trash and snacks from the carport! Beautiful sunrises, rainbows, and clouds made it all the more magical!

We went with a family of 15 ranging from 9-69. No one wanted to leave and all want to go back! I've rented several vacation homes in the past, but none have been as well furnished as Skyridge Villa. We cooked almost every night of our stay and never needed anything that wasn't already there. The beds and linens were of top quality as were the soft bathrobes available for our use. The cinema room was a huge hit with the kids and adults alike. The boutique soaps, shampoos and body wash added to the many special touches this property has to offer. We couldn't have been any more pleased!

A Week to Make Memories
We have been traveling to the mountains on the week of Thanksgiving for 15 years. We typically rent a house large enough to meet the need of our kids and grandkids. We had a great experience at Skyridge Villa. The views from the deck were grand and the house was appointed nicely. Best set of glassware and dishes that we have experienced. Made Thanksgiving dinner better than we expected. The road to the house was a bit bumpy, but since we were that last home at the end of the road there was no other traffic, that was just fine. Julia was our house host and she was fantastic. We had a few questions and she answered our texts without delay. She was helpful, thoughtful and more than responsive. Thank you Julia, you made our visit better because of you.

Wonderful property but had some maintenance issues.
Incredible house for our large group of 8 adults with a great view of the fall foliage which we caught at peak. Cannot give it an overall 5 due to maintenance issues. After braving the potholes and winding road to reach the house we experienced the internet, TV, and ice maker not working. Julia the house manager was responsive by phone to help resolve most of the problems. I do think that the working order of the major home amenities should be checked prior to the arrival of all new guests.
