35 Thousand Pines Lane

Charming and quiet, this lovely cottage sits on on a private 1 acre lot on Thousand Pines Lane in Tryon’s beautiful Gillette Woods neighborhood. The legendary William Gillette built his home here in 1890, originally on 700 acres near where train passengers stopped at the depot to rest before the climb up to Asheville. Today it’s a private, no outlet, stone lined road reminiscent of an old English village - one of the nicest spots you can find just up from downtown. Originally a cook’s cottage, the home has been reconfigured over the years making a comfortable main level suite for one or two residents, plus a guest loft and bath upstairs. Pets ok. Good storage space, new kitchen appliances, laundry room, carport, courtyard patio, sunroom, and lovely stone terrace in back. Good internet. Currently unfurnished, flexible lease terms.
