Sightseeing/fun

The west Asheville neighborhood where I am located is a wonderful place to live and visit! Walking around the area you will find many restaurants, pubs, retail shops, tea and coffee shops, massage school, yoga center and a grocery store right across the street to name a few. West Asheville is a growing neighborhood which you will share with family’s strolling with their children and dogs, skateboarders, joggers, and general exuberance!
