Surrounded by an acre of formal and "ragged gardens", this early 1900's manor offers an enchanting hideaway in the heart of the village of Blowing Rock, North Carolina. Built at the turn of the century as a "seasonal" cottage, the house has welcom ed guests and residents for a century. You will marvel at the stone columns and stone floors. The spacious living room is alive with a relaxed luxury and grace which is complemented by many antiques, chestnut paneled walls, stone fireplace and staircase. Folding wormy chestnut doors invite you into the chestnut paneled reading room with a wine nook, yet another fireside setting within which to acquaint one's self with a great author.
