Striking European-inspired cottage sited beautifully on 1.81 acres mere minutes of downtown Asheville, Biltmore Village and Mission Hospital. With 180 degree views, wake up to see the sunrise while having your coffee and enjoy sunset in the evenings having cocktails with family and friends. From your front door, there's immediate acccess to great hiking up Beaucatcher Mountain, or connect to the greenway leading into downtown or McCormick Field. Your own private, mountain retreat right in the city.
Hand-built with solid pine logs by an expert Canadian craftsman, the home includes two primary suites, tons of charming, custom features, as well as additional electrical & plumbing in place for alternate living combinations. Geothermal, 3-zone heating and cooling system for highly-efficient living. Whole house water filtration system. A great home at 1820 SF, but the beauty of the property lies in the ability to use the cottage as a guest house and build an adjacent main house. The site slopes gently for easy additional construction with room to spare for a yard and gardens. No HOA fees or rules.
