About the host
Hosted by Rosemary Julian
I was born on the outskirts of London in Essex and moved to Virginia in the 1980s. The rolling mountains and crisp air of Ashe County remind me of England’s climate, which is part of why my husband and I fell in love with this special corner of North Carolina. We’re delighted to share our cozy cabin and this beautiful 15-acre property with you!
Why they chose this property
This cabin sits on a 15-acre slice of my late husband’s family land, settled in 1798 by the first registered inhabitants of Ashe County. The property has stayed in the family ever since. The big white farmhouse at the entrance, built in the 1890s, welcomes you to this historic retreat. My husband and I retired here 15 years ago to live full-time, drawn by the serenity, cool mountain summers, and warm Southern charm. We think you’ll love it as much as we do!
What makes this property unique
Our cozy cabin offers a rare blend of history, seclusion, and natural beauty. Built in the 1940s as a tenant farmer’s home, it’s tucked away on 15 acres of family land settled in 1798—the first registered property in Ashe County. Surrounded by rolling pastures and a Christmas tree grove, it’s a peaceful hideaway where you can unwind, watch birds, and stargaze under the Appalachian sky. Just down the hill stands our big white farmhouse, built in the 1890s, adding a touch of timeless charm. This isn’t just a rental—it’s a piece of living history, paired with the cool mountain air and Southern hospitality we’ve cherished since retiring here 15 years ago.
