Asheville’s Applewood Manor Shows Off Refresh

A $1.5 million restoration revitalizes the historic B&B property with a worldly sensibility

Words by: Will Speros • Photos courtesy of the Applewood Manor

The historic Applewood Manor in Asheville, North Carolina has reopened following the completion of the first phase in its $1.5 million restoration. Recent upgrades to the 6,000-square-foot B&B include six refurbished accommodations and a slew of upgraded amenities.

“Having lived and worked in more than 20 different countries, I was inspired by boutique hotels such as Soho House, and we aim to bring that level of sophistication, engagement, curation, and service to reinvent the dusty bed and breakfast experience,” says Applewood owner and operator Stephen Collins, who also oversaw renovations with his wife, Robin. “For Robin and me, it’s highly personal, and we are looking forward to forming meaningful relationships and building traditions with our guests.”

The couple drew inspiration from luxury boutique properties across the globe, including a retreat in the South of France which is channeled within Applewood’s “secret” seventh room. The eclectic visual identity of the Applewood Manor comprises curated artwork and furnishings that range from Persian rugs to antique focal points like a Chickering upright piano and 110-year-old butler’s pantry. Contemporary pieces inject a juxtaposition of old and new into the property as well as an international flair.
