Property Description
Lovill House holds a unique place in Boone history. In 1903, Captain Edward Francis Lovill, B.B. Dougherty and William Lovill gathered in what is now the Bristol Room to draft the legislative charter that helped establish the institution that became Appalachian State University.
Historic details include original hardwood floors, fireplaces and wormy chestnut millwork, complemented by newer HVAC, upgraded electrical and plumbing, Rockwool insulation, low-VOC finishes, approximately 30 kW of solar generation, Tesla battery storage and EV charging. Recognition includes the 2026 TripAdvisor Travelers' Choice Award, KAYAK Top-Rated Property recognition, NC GreenTravel's highest rating certification and sustainability honors from NCSEA and Explore Boone.
Mature landscaping, firepits, trails, a creek and large spring-fed waterfall create a serene mountain setting only minutes from downtown Boone. A rare opportunity for a single-family residence, multigenerational retreat, guest property or continued hospitality use, subject to applicable zoning and approvals.
