Beaufort House Inn

Enjoy the warmth and friendly atmosphere of this one-of-a-kind historic property. Built in 1894, this historic home has been meticulously restored as a romantic bed and breakfast inn with an air of casual luxury and elegance - the perfect environment for an exceptional getaway experience.

Listed on the National Register of Historic Places, this beautiful Queen Anne Victorian is situated on 1 ½ acres in the quiet, residential Chestnut Historic District. It provides an oasis of beautifully landscaped grounds, gardens, and waterfalls just a half mile stroll from the vibrant activities of downtown Asheville, NC. It was once the home to actor Charlton Heston and his wife, Lydia, who would walk downtown to their work at The Asheville Community Theatre, which is still putting on great plays throughout the year.

This grand home is the perfect place for a romantic honeymoon, anniversary, or special getaway weekend. Delight in the mountain sunsets from our wraparound Victorian porch, walk the beautiful gardens, or enjoy the nearby excitement of the arts, culture, food, and music of downtown Asheville. You can also connect with the natural beauty of the surrounding mountain areas with hiking, biking, whitewater rafting, horseback riding, and a variety of outdoor activities.
