This recently renovated cottage is perfectly located in downtown Waynesville, only 2 blocks from the town's thriving Main Street and easily accessible to the Blue Ridge Parkway, Great Smokies National Park, and other area amenities and attractions. Cozy and attractive, it provides comfort and convenience while retaining its historical charm. The large fenced-in yard is perfect for children to play in and also for small dogs, which may be allowed with pre-approval by the owner. The space The property was beautifully updated during the winter of 2021-22. It is all on one level, so no stair-climbing is required. Interior doorways connect the living area to the bedroom and the bedroom to the spacious bathroom. The living, dining, and kitchen areas are connected via open floor plan. Large windows and recessed lighting make the interiors bright and welcoming. The seating furniture is comfortable and plentiful. Located next to a large window, the dining table can double as workspace. All rooms can be heated in cooler months, and the new air-cooling mini-split unit, plus bedroom ceiling fan, will keep guests comfortable when it's hot outside. Guest access Guests have access to the entire structure, as well as to the grassy front yard and the large, fenced-in backyard. Other things to note The Mayor's Cottage is perfect for people of all ages, including couples, single adults, and small families. TV service includes channels provided through DirecTV, and the smart TV itself allows for streaming through guests' own subscriptions and devices. Board games, puzzles, and DVDs, as well as a wall full of books, are available for our guests' indoor entertainment. To ensure you get settled in and have a great start to your visit, we provide a starter supply of toilet paper, paper towels, soaps, detergents and other essentials. However, these may not be enough for those booking an extended stay, and you may need to purchase additional supplies. NOTE: Exterior-only security cameras (2) are installed for the protection of the property and our guests. (There are no other video or audio recording devices on premises.)
