The 1900 Inn on Montford, situated in the heart of the historic Montford district of Asheville, provides a luxurious bed and breakfast setting for guests to experience a sense of southern and Austrian comfort and Gemütlichkeit. Built in 1900 the main house features five beautifully appointed guest rooms, all with private bathrooms. Situated across the courtyard from the main building is a lovely carriage house with three luxury rooms with steam showers, Shiatsu tubs, kitchenettes, King beds, fireplaces, and pet friendly. The property located at 296 Montford Avenue was built as a private residence in 1900 with the greatest attention to detail and highest quality of appointments. The home was designed by architect Richard Sharpe Smith, best known for his work on the Biltmore Estate, the Basilica St. Lawrence, and the Pack Memorial Obelisk. The home was commissioned by Dr. Charles Jordan, a Spanish American War Surgeon, it later became a boarding house, and is celebrating 25 years as a Bed and Breakfast. The Inn received the Griffin Historic Preservation Award in 2012 from the Preservation Society of Asheville and Buncombe County. The Inn has AAA Four Diamonds for 10 years running. The common areas and grand front porch of the Inn are spacious and appointed with antiques, fresh flowers, and classic Arts and Crafts woodwork and several of the guest rooms have luxury bathrooms. Inn mornings begin with a three course breakfast on the grand front porch (weather permitting) or elegant community table with locally sourced ingredients. Evenings offer the opportunity to relax on the porch or sunroom while enjoying refreshments and conversation. Experience live heritage music each Saturday evening on the porch or front foyer. Our Asheville bed and breakfast is eight blocks from historic downtown Asheville, and minutes from the Biltmore Estate, and the Blue Ridge Parkway.
