Welcome to The Cherokee Lodge, a rare and distinguished historic estate built in 1890 by Annie Ravenel, a notable figure in the golden age of refined mountain hospitality. As Tryon rose to prominence as an elite mountain retreat and health destination-drawing travelers seeking rejuvenation, fresh air, and elegance-this remarkable home stood as a welcoming lodge for discerning guests. Today, it remains one of the town's architectural treasures. Offering 5 bedrooms, 4 full bathrooms, and just under 4,000 square feet, this home seamlessly blends historic grandeur with elevated comfort. The current owners have thoughtfully stewarded the property as both a cherished family gathering place and a sanctuary for fine antiques, ensuring every update honored the home's original character while subtly enhancing livability with modern heating, cooling, electrical, and plumbing. Entering through the stained-glass front door is a moment unto itself. Rich hardwood floors, intricate moldings, and exquisite craftsmanship immediately convey a level of quality impossible to replicate. Three original fireplaces anchor inviting gathering spaces, ideal for intimate evenings, refined entertaining, or welcoming guests. The expansive, eat-in kitchen has a large island with storage and a plethora of cabinetry. A walk-up attic presents exceptional flexibility, offering the opportunity to create an additional guest suite, game room, or studio- the possibilities are endless. With its gracious bedroom count, square footage, and walkable location, the property is uniquely positioned for a multitude of uses. Outdoors, mountain views and a sweeping wraparound porch invite you to slow down and unwind. All of this is just a short stroll to excellent dining, shopping, arts, and entertainment. Designed and built long before mass production, this home stands as a testament to the craftsmanship and attention to detail of that era. After more than 130 years of welcoming others, The Cherokee Lodge is ready for its next chapter-whether as an elegant private residence or a bed-and-breakfast, this is an opportunity that doesn't come around often.
