55 1/2 Haywood St

Remarkable apartment in a historic building with neighbors including legacy businesses like Malaprops Bookstore/Cafe and Woolworth Walk. Enjoy easy proximity to excellent dining and entertainment on offer in downtown Asheville. The Castanea building was constructed in the 1920s and was restored and modernized in the early 2000s, maintaining original details such as oak and tile flooring and original wood doors with transom windows.
