About this property

Stunning Mtn Views! Villa Nirvana - Posh, Serene, Secluded - Dogs Welcome!

It’s hard to tell where the sky and mountains end and where Villa Nirvana (Heaven) begins in this Mid Century modern house, composed for serene modern mountain living.

Perched at 3000 ft. on an acre of untouched woodlands, Villa Nirvana harmonizes with vibrant nature and the infinite sky outside, with flowing hickory floors, translucent sky blue walls, and sleek wood furniture.

Imagine…

Ensconced in an oasis of sophisticated style, sip your coffee in the morning in the Sun Room, gazing at a long range view of the Blue Ridge Mountains in North Carolina and the Smoky Mountains in Tennessee, sixty miles away. In the evening, cook a luscious meal in our fully stocked galley kitchen, or on the gas barbie outside on the Sky Deck, then dine at our vintage Danish table, or out on our ultra-comfy chaise lounges on the porch. Toast your loved ones with a glass of wine as the sun goes down and night blankets Villa Nirvana, then marvel at the magical view of Hendersonville, sparkling like a jewel of lights in the distance.

After a wonderful day exploring our entrancing Western Carolina environs, slip into bed in clean white linen sheets in a mission queen bed in the Master Bedroom, or vintage mahogany twin beds in the Guest Room. In the morning, you’ll wake up refreshed and rejuvenated to the pink and aqua sunrise outside your private balcony.


Envision…

After breakfast, hop into your car and within a short drive, you’ll arrive at the charming town of Hendersonville, where first-rate bakeries and restaurants and quaint stores abound. Another twenty-thirty minutes and you’ll be in Asheville, known for its culinary cool, indie music scene, and unsurpassed antique stores and arts and crafts community.

We’ve found Villa Nirvana to be a fantastic launching pad from which to explore the Biltmore Vanderbilt Estate and its majestic grounds, share a drink at The Grove Park Inn (built in 1913 from granite stone) with its massive fireplaces and awesome mountain views, cruise gorgeous Lake Lure in a nifty pontoon boat, and hike and swim in waterfalls in the Blue Ridge Mountains.

Picture…

Perfect for a romantic getaway but also ideal for friends and family, with a wrap-around L-shaped porch (partly screen enclosed), Villa Nirvana also features fun Mid-Century art and objects, a 60” TV with a variety of sports and movie channels, games from miniature pool to Trivial Pursuit, Scrabble and Monopoly, and even an old fashioned record player with records to dance to.

Imaginative and playful in its Mid-Century Modern design, come stay with us for a few days or a few weeks at Villa Nirvana and fall in love like we did with the serene mountain setting, mesmerizing sunsets and sunrises, and posh retro style.

Peaceful mountaintop villa!
We loved our time at Villa Nirvana! The home has everything you could possibly need for your vacation. It was decorated with love, and lots of room to spread out. Kitchen had everything you’d need for cooking your own meals. The record player was a fun addition, with all the vintage vinyl LPs. It was quite windy in the late winter, so we didn’t spend much time out on the decks, but the fireplace was wonderful. The views! Can’t say enough about the gorgeous views of the Smokies, Blue Ridge and Hendersonville! Peaceful and very cool to wake up and see the sun coming up over the farms below. Hendersonville is a great town, with lots of entertaining craft breweries. Hot Dog World was fun, and we enjoyed a barbeque lunch at the Flat Rock Wood Room. The drive to town is only 15 minutes, but it truly feels like you’re a world away. Thanks for sharing your home, and we’d love to return to this piece of heaven on the mountain.

Huge fans of Villa Nirvana!
My entire family loved this wonderful home! The furniture and decor are so cool. All of the vintage magazines were so entertaining. We had some very windy cold weather but still enjoyed the view from the beautiful sun room. We had some absolutely delicious dinners at Postero and Shine in Hendersonville. Shine served some of the best escargot and french onion soup I’ve ever tasted. I do recommend taking the Bear Rock Mountain road. It is much faster getting everywhere. I get a bit car sick and the Pinnacle Road route is longer with much more curves so I was very happy to have another option. We definitely plan on returning to this wonderful property!

About the host

Hosted by Barbara

Host profile image
Since 1984, I have lived in a 1947 deco house on the water in Miami Beach. I love my work as a Screenwriting Professor at the University of Miami in Coral Gables. Thus, Villa Nirvana has a definite movie theme as you will find when you stay there! Film is a passion, and so is house design. I really enjoyed renovating Villa Nirvana, transforming it into a setting that is akin to that in the TV series Madmen. I took out the shag carpet and put down hickory hand scraped floors, painted the dark walls translucent blue, and even bought furniture from the same antique store where the set designers for Madmen shopped. Villa Nirvana is about Mid-Century Modern art and furniture. Everything I acquired for the house is something I fell in love with, from the Atomic Salt and Pepper shakers to the Piazza Snow Couch. But mostly, the mountain view is something I want EVERYONE to see. It is like an incredible priceless painting. You never get tired of staring at the layers and layers of mountains, with smoky clouds like frosting in the morning. I was dumbstruck by the year round unobstructed view. And facing north, I loved that I could see the sunrise in the morning from the Master Bedroom, and gaze at the sunset in the evening from the Sun Room. Not to mention, eat chips and dip with friends in the covered porch when it is raining. To quote Simon and Garfunkel, the Sounds of Silence in the mountains is something that was miraculous to me, after living on Miami Beach where it is never quiet with the party-goers on South Beach, airplanes overhead, and jet skiers on the water. As a writer, Villa Nirvana nurtured my creativity. J.K. Rowling says that her books do not pop up like mushrooms, but at Villa Nirvana, my creative flow streams much faster and easier than in Miami. I hope to write a blockbuster there! Or, maybe I will just kick back on the Sky Deck and watch the sun go down....

Why they chose this property

For most of my life, I have lived in the tropics in Singapore, Bangkok and Hawaii. (Yes, I surfed and did the hula.) My saying used to be: You can take the girl out of the island, but you cannot take the island out of the girl! That was until I visited one of my best friends in Hendersonville, NC and her mountain top home. I fell hard that trip, for the breathtaking view of the sunrise and sunset over the mountains, for the clouds rolling in over the valley below, for precious moments shared with my friends on their porch, sharing a glass of wine at sunset, and for the genuine beauty of the people of Western North Carolina. I could not get enough of shopping with my friend for the savory produce at the Farmers Markets. And the antiques, art, music, and food in Hendersonville and Asheville. I could not survive in a place without food; I mean GREAT FOOD. This place has it! So I found myself searching out a home where I could sit and gape at the mountains all day and drink in the beauty, noshing on a sweet mountain apple. I found it on my second day. I stepped onto the Sky Deck of Villa Nirvana and said: This is it. This is my home, and I want to share it with my friends, family, and people who love the mountains, who love tranquility and serenity, who love convening over food with friends in a spectacular setting like I do. As a screenwriter, I found the perfect place to write and create. If you are an artist or creative, this place is IT for inspiration! If you just want a great vacation away from it all, where silence is the predominant sound, then this place will seduce you into a state of nirvana. With one of my Vassar College sisters, I designed Villa Nirvana to be sleek and sophisticated, chic and fun. No granny quilts here! Rather, there is colorful Mid-Century art, vintage Danish designed furniture, even a record player to dance to on the orange mod rug! I am so excited about opening my heavenly home to guests!

What makes this property unique

What makes Villa Nirvana special? The Mountain View. The Sky. The Serenity and Silence. The coziness of its 1450 sq. ft. of sophisticated style. It was love at first sight when I stepped into Villa Nirvana, and I have never looked back.
