Wanderlust - completely renovated downtown cottage

Enjoy all the Brevard has to offer in this impeccably restored 1935 cottage on the most sought after street in town. Walking distance to downtown and a short drive to Pisgah National Forest and DuPont State Park. “Wanderlust” was completely rebuilt, from the foundation up, and offers everything you could want to have a comfortable and enjoyable stay. Whether you are coming for the music, the beer, or amazing outdoor adventures, Wanderlust is the perfect home base for your visit.

With an open floor plan, fully appointed kitchen, comfy living area nestled around the gas fire place, this home will welcome you to stay even longer than planned.

The kitchen is fully equipped, and you will find - a gas range, full size refrigerator, washer/dryer, pantry with microwave and coffee maker. If you don’t want to walk downtown to eat at one of the many fine restaurants, you may make a gourmet meal at home.

The primary suite includes a memory foam queen bed with a luxurious full bath and walk-in closet. The front bedroom has a single, and the middle bedroom a double bed.

You can enjoy a cozy night by the fireplace inside, or step outside and socialize on the large front porch and enjoy the cool mountain air.

You will have the whole place to yourself and full access to everything (except our owners' storage closet).

While we won't be here in person, we are available by phone if anything comes up. We want to ensure your stay is satisfactory and have in-town support to take care of any needs.

Maple Street anchors the residential area of downtown Brevard. It is pedestrian/bike/kid friendly, and you will probably see as many people walking and riding bikes as in cars. It is a very friendly and safe area at all times of day.

Wanderlust is walking distance from downtown, or an even quicker bike ride. Enjoy the farmers market, shops, and restaurants and never get in your car.

Owner is a SC real estate agent.
We want you to have an amazing stay and don't have any additional rules. Our only request is that you be respectful of our home, our neighbors, and our town. We want them all to be just like we left them when we get back from our wandering!
The cottage is air-conditioned and features a kitchen, 2 bathrooms, and a patio, and there's space to spread out with 3 bedrooms. Guests can enjoy a Smart TV and stay connected with free WiFi. Other standard amenities include a washing machine, a fireplace, and a fenced private yard.
