Licensed and operated as a "Commercial" Bed & Breakfast Inn. This 9 bedroom property has 6 bedrooms in the and 2 bedrooms in Cottage. Additionally, there is a 1 bedroom suite in the Cottage for the Owner and or managing Innkeeper. This Historic structure is one of the most significant structures in the City of Asheville located in the center of the Montford Historic District. Although considered a medium sized Bed & Breakfast this structure would be a very large Single family home. Black Walnut Bed & Breakfast Inn was designed and built by the supervising architect for The Biltmore Estate, Richard Sharp-Smith, in 1899. The Inn is beautifully maintained and has retained its historic character and charm, with half-timbering pebbledash walls, original diamond-paned windows and corner turret. Modern improvements such as air conditioning, Wi-FI, and private bath en-suites, have been added to the Inn without sacrificing the original quality, workmanship, and details.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
