This beautiful Tryon cottage
This beautiful Tryon cottage, once home to the renowned artist Jean Stansbury Holden, is a unique and historic gem full of character and artistic charm. It is said that the artist herself helped to craft the elaborate ceilings in the combined living and dining room, adding a distinctive touch that showcases her talent and vision.
The home offers a flexible floor plan with three bedrooms and three bathrooms, giving you the option to live in the entire space as a large, spacious home or to take advantage of the rear apartment, which features its own private entrance and driveway. This setup makes it perfect for multi-generational living, guests, or even a potential rental opportunity.
Tall ceilings throughout the home create a sense of openness and airiness, enhancing the light-filled rooms that offer breathtaking mountain views from the front of the house. The European-style kitchen is a charming focal point, featuring a cozy breakfast area that flows seamlessly into a den, which has most recently been used as an art studio—perfect for those seeking a creative space or a place to relax and unwind.
The mature landscaping surrounding the property is every gardener’s dream, with lush greenery and beautifully tended gardens that add to the charm of the home. Situated on a corner lot, the property is within walking distance of downtown Tryon, offering easy access to local shops, restaurants, and community events.
