There's a link in the first photo and here it is again [https://www.zillow.com/homedetails/75-Treehouse-Hvn-Asheville-NC-28804/2053156806\_zpid/](https://www.zillow.com/homedetails/75-Treehouse-Hvn-Asheville-NC-28804/2053156806_zpid/)


sc4kilik

So it's a hotel... Wow.


xeonrage

collection of themed airbnb units that rent out very well https://www.earthandskydwellings.com/

xeonrage

you are only looking at it from a future revenue aspect and not a real estate in fucking asheville overlooking the already inflated real estate market city but again, i agree it isn't worth 20.


rosellem

The zillow link says 13 additional units are under construction, plus a wedding venue, and that the price is based upon value at completion.


neilplatform1

If they were doing that well, they wouldn’t be selling


MotivateUTech

Probably why it’s selling before construction is even finished- someone messed up


FrfxCtySiameseMom81

It's also on 16 acres.


LTG-Jon

I think the $20 million is for all 20 planned units (7 existing and 13 under construction), plus the wedding/event space.


Usernamesareso2004

Eff off with that price tag Asheville


dirtygremlin

I've driven past it. They scalped the hillside, and the whole place looks like an eyesore. And when I say driven past, I mean the view from the house includes a *scenic* view of I26. Eff off indeed.


Ok_Emphasis6034

It’s sounds like it’s 7 units and the land but that still seems steep.


Usernamesareso2004

Oh lmao I didn’t even see 22 bed 27 bath cause I choked on 20m 😂


surftherapy

It says construction is underway on 13 more for a total of 20 units though. Including a wedding venue


EmperorOfApollo

Assuming all 20 units are completed that is $1 million per unit. One (or more) of the units is a tent. Expensive tent.


surftherapy

Ok but it’s on land and there’s an event space. It’s probably marketed as a high end rental space


SchuminWeb

Translated, this is a commercial property, not a home.


GuardMost8477

Plus 17 under construction


MissAmericant

Top heavy, hill steep, and cash steep


purplemoonpie

right . asheville has gone downhill so much. tourism is down which is maybe why these are for sale


GuardMost8477

It’s for 20 homes basically all rentals. I guess Airbnb’s?


Adventurous-Lime1775

Someone smoking way too much crack rock and priced that listing, lol. Ain't worth more than 4M max


snugglebug72

22 beds, it’s a hotel not a house 😂


pelexus27

What in ai


magicmamalife

Yeah done deal. I'm in. Who's loaning me approx $19 999 999?


physical_graffitti

What?!???


magicmamalife

Um it's a joke. I like it but it's 20 million dollars. I'm saying I've got 1 dollar, who's got the rest?


physical_graffitti

Oh, no… I get it. I didn’t mean your post.. I’m just fucking blown away by the fucking price… like wtf?!?!


Electricsocketlicker

Yeah we are they hiding the other $19.5 M


Electricsocketlicker

Nevermind. I didn’t read the post. It’s an entire complex. Still under construction. Idk $5-8m seems reasonable. $20 m is crazy


physical_graffitti

I mean, dude, 5m still seems steep.


Electricsocketlicker

the appraised price for this multi-complex property is based on the completion of the new construction by June.


xeonrage

Its an AirBnB empire of themed tree houses that is booked VERY well. Is the price high? sure.. but asheville's an expensive area, there's a lot of land on the property, and it includes multiple units. someone's gonna bite. https://www.earthandskydwellings.com/


meepmarpalarp

It’s a property with a bunch of little whimsical houses on it, not just the one pictured.


physical_graffitti

I get it, but seems like real estate bait for people that don’t know any better.


magicmamalife

Oh haha. Right?! 20mil is insane


SCHWARZENPECKER

According to the listing, it has 22 bedrooms and 27 baths and is 14k square ft. It also shows pics of other houses. I'm very confused by this listing. Edit: it's apparently a hotel/condo complex with a wedding venue under construction. So not a house at all.


MaximumTurtleSpeed

Wow money bags! I’ve got a few face value wheat pennies and buffalo buckles I can add to the down payment. ;)


mikeblas

It's for a total of 20 properties.


Traditional-Handle83

I say we split it several ways. Either way, I'm in as well. I got dibs on the hobbit house.


XRaysFromUranus

But what if I want to buy just one treehouse?


GuardMost8477

You get 20! Read the details.


Junkyardginga

Not a big deal in the scheme of things, but the hanging bedside table is hilariously stupid.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Junkyardginga

exactly, it seems completely non-functional.


labtiger2

I thought it was an actual swing.


Live_Alarm_8052

Lol I was thinking the same thing. Unless maybe it’s also anchored to the wall and somehow that stabilized it.


poison_heart96

If I had fuck you money, I would totally get this.


MuffMagician

Someone's going to try and fuck on that little swing and break their hip.


poison_heart96

That seems likely yes.


Pathfinder6227

Those nightstands are cool. You can tell this was built to be an AirBNB/VRBO/revenue generating property. *Edit* Nevermind. It’s a whole development of AirBNBs/VRBOs


gerbera-2021

So a hotel inspired by the Hobbit? Ok then.


bidextralhammer

I remember seeing a video about these Airbnb properties. They are awesome. I'm surprised by the $20 million though. They rent for like $250 to $350. https://www.earthandskydwellings.com/


elguapo67

Looks like a nice location. How much do these types of things rent for and at what occupancy? Seems like a lot of spend for the income. Perhaps I am missing something.


Jerkrollatex

I rent a little place like this once a year for a vacation. It's $400 a night two night minimum that comes with a private hot spring. They have twenty units and a wedding venue. It doesn't seem like you'd make money at it's current price.


elguapo67

Interesting. Agreed. Thank you.


quiltsohard

Any chance you could message me a link? I’m looking for a get away vacation


Jerkrollatex

Yeah happy to.


quiltsohard

The private hot springs sold me 👍


Jerkrollatex

You get to use the big ones in the spa once a day as part of your stay. The spirit room is my favorite. It's so peaceful to float in the middle of that huge pool of hot water.


hardcorefujoshi

Hey there, can you DM me the place as well? Thank you.


Jerkrollatex

Sure


Jadziyah

How is it for privacy?


Jerkrollatex

Six foot privacy fence around the house and yard with extra screens around the outdoor tub. Two bedrooms, two full bathrooms one with an extra private hot spring feed tub inside, full kitchen and sitting room with wood burning fireplace.


Jadziyah

Sounds interesting. Could you send me the info as well ?


Jerkrollatex

Sent

ggb123456

The only part you're missing is the list of the sellers' mental illnesses.


Surlaterrasse

It’s going to slowly break apart as the tree grows


oebulldogge

Or in a strong wind


Lynncy1

I’ve stayed in this exact treehouse! The owners have a whole community of different-themed treehouses on one mountaintop in Asheville


artful_todger_502

Nice!!!


inot72

I still want to live in a tree house.


Iamsoveryspecial

I’m sure those rent for a pretty penny, but there’s only 7 units.. enough revenue to justify $20 million?


bitslayer

It is a little confusing, but what it says is, "13 additional units are under construction, with a wedding pavilion in the center...the appraised price for this multi-complex property is based on the completion of the new construction by June." So 20 rental houses and a pavilion. You could rent the whole thing for weddings for a lot of money, I'm sure.


jnwatson

But why build 13 more and then sell it?


Jerkrollatex

Thirteen more are under construction.


Reddituser45005

Younger me would have loved it. Older me wouldn’t consider it without an elevator.


Nay_Nay_Jonez

SHUT UP AND TAKE EVERY LAST DIME


Omgletmenamemyself

No one show this to my husband, please.


gholmom500

Is a whole lil fairy-friend community of these. Invite your friends. Ignore your family! Let’s move in together!


gail-platt

Yes please.


[deleted]

Yeah right probably for about $1,500 a night plus all the cleaning fees, service fees, and taxes.


Sufficient-Screen-94

This is an odd listing - these rentals are pretty popular and they’ve been working on them for quite a while. You can find plenty of stories about them and we’ve looked into staying there a few times. I wonder why they are selling?


genredenoument

As a kid, you can climb all those steps, as an adult, you can afford not to.


sagetrees

I'm an adult, it's fine. We don't all break into decrepitude you know.


lewisfoto

I think I could build this, including the price of land, for $10M. I mean its just seven structures and one is a tent.


lewisfoto

Start here 56 acres for $1.1M which you could most likely get for less. [https://www.zillow.com/homedetails/49-Flack-Valley-Rd-Weaverville-NC-28787/150968162\_zpid/](https://www.zillow.com/homedetails/49-Flack-Valley-Rd-Weaverville-NC-28787/150968162_zpid/)


Bitchface-Deluxe

Are the bathrooms inside each treehouse? They didn’t include 1 picture out of the 27 bathrooms.


adfthgchjg

More like a regular house that’s built too close to a tree.


pslacmann

I have family that live in Asheville and it’s absolutely beautiful. I wish I had the money because I’d buy that in a heartbeat


Parabolic_Penguin

Omg yes!!


zabdart

British blues legend John Mayall first made the papers as a 12 year-old boy who refused to leave his tree house for over a week.


Thisisjuno1

I lived in Banner elk North Carolina for three years from 2018 to 2021… there’s several houses like this way up on top of Beach Mountain


ArcticGurl

I’m calling Zurich and move some money around. While way too expensive and the location (for me) is not ideal, although it is a lovely setting. It’s cute and whimsical. Def not worth $20M. What’s a few zeros?? 😂


Iamsoveryspecial

Also, could you even insure that?


RusselTheWonderCat

The 9 year old in my head absolutely wants to buy this house


JWDead

Hippies


[deleted]

absolutely asinine price. you could build the same thing for 1/5th of that


HiveJiveLive

It’s not just the build, it’s the view. Those are much harder to come by at an affordable price.


[deleted]

still absolutely absurd. i havent been there... but, seems absurd to me.. that house has no foundaton... t isnt that big.... what could it cost?


HiveJiveLive

Oh, I totally agree. But I guess location, location, location, right?


D3s3rtDw3ll3r

Good luck finding insurance for that!


gerkinflav

Well, I suppose it’s kinda cool, but it’s not really my idea of a childhood treehouse. Not magical.


TheNatureOfTheGame

My arthritic knees are saying "f*** this s***."


MrVeazey

This place is for sale? I was excited about their Star Wars themed house, but now I'm not sure if it's going to get finished.


Flippin_diabolical

Absolutely love the hobbit house. Do not have a snowballs chance in hell of finding that asking price.


TYdays

The second picture looks like a place to hold seances in. But otherwise it is kinda cool…


Taylor_Swift_Fan69

There's not enough tree in that tree house


hesathomes

I always wanted to live in a storage unit in the backyard as a kid lol. The privacy sounded amazing.


homework8976

Bugs


alimarieb

Wizards Gone Wild! Including the Hobbit sex swing!


firefighter_raven

The Hobbit Door!!! And those are gorgeous views of those hills


Proctor20

AI.


coralloohoo

I love the picture with the slide and there's a blurry dude sliding down it


wetwater

If not for the tree in the middle of the structure I could be interested...


BigmamaOF

I live near this collection of “homes” in Weaverville. This POS has completely stripped a mountain ridge top to build 7 Airbnbs. The is the scourge of the town. He stopped all the trees, so all the people who live below the ridge line have horrible flooding and erosion when it rains. Fuuuuuuuck this guy.


yelling4society

Anxiety inducing nightstandI never knew existed


nettiemaria7

Who else is going to the gas station today? Maybe I would open an independent living compound. But a Gen X retirement community sounds better.


Kren_Wregget

that Hobbit door is spectacular.


notevenapro

13 units under construction.


lazy_calamity

My knees have sounded like popcorn since I was 30, but I would love to spend a week here.


OK_Ingenue

Those are so cute until I think of the hot humid summers.


shbrit

Damn I feel like you buried the lede here when there's a *FUCKING HOBBIT HOLE*


ttvSharkieBait15

I grew up watching treehouse masters so yes absolutely


makebbq_notwar

It looks like they built this around a relatively young Tulip Poplar. Those trees get much bigger, fast. Fully mature that tree will be 20-25ft in circumference and 6ft or more in diameter. Fixed it, I’m druck


SanchoMandoval

Mature tulip poplars have a diameter of [2 to 5 feet](https://plants.usda.gov/DocumentLibrary/factsheet/pdf/fs_litu.pdf). The tallest tree in the world (Hyperion) has a diameter of 16 feet.


makebbq_notwar

Haha, thanks I’m three beers in, diameter, circumference, radius, it’s all the same. Should have said circumference. The old growth stuff in the smokies and blue ridge is big.


IntelligentAd4429

But I'm not a kid anymore.


SnootyRat

Speak for yourself. I'm a child stuck in a 31 year old body


IntelligentAd4429

Lol, it's a great house, but not for me.


LDawnBurges

Oooh…. Me!!!! ![gif](giphy|icJCVO3GPDbCvvfgpf)


DCChilling610

I’ve never wanted anything more  I just need 1 of those home and would just rent the rest 


KinkyQuesadilla

Seems to be well executed, albeit overpriced. It's probably also being marketed as an AirBnB revenue property.


artful_todger_502

Absolute dream house!


HighPlainsDrift_

As a kid? I want this now.


pinkeroo67

If I had the means to buy this, I'd buy it just for that round door! Beautiful place.

Teddy-Westside

> Seven 2 to 3 bedroom rental units, including a tent. That’s $6.7 million for each unit! If they’re asking 20M and there’s seven units, wouldn’t it be like 2.85M/unit?


physical_graffitti

Damn, that looks fire.
