Once in a lifetime opportunity to own 4.1 peaceful acres close to the Blue Ridge Parkway yet only 5 minutes from the Fresh Market and Asheville Country Club. Architect designed cedar house with one-level living, multiple decks and a partially finished full basement. The great stone fireplace beckons you to gather in the sunken living room, and is visible from the dining area and kitchen as well. A sunroom ringed with windows is set off the kitchen. In the back of the house, three bedrooms and two full baths await cosmetic updates. The sprawling full basement features a daylight family room with wood stove, laundry, fourth bedroom, and a full bath. The resident Master Gardener spent years preparing this magical yard for you. Specimen plants and trees, and pathways wind all around the gently sloping property. So peaceful ... yet families may enjoy the close proximity to the library, Asheville Catholic & Jones Elementary. Lots of room to spread out. The house is currently on septic and well, ensuring low bills, but connections are available near the street for city water and sewer. The house was annexed years ago to be within city limits - a location so desirable a former Asheville mayor chose Carter Cove to build his own house. Relax or renovate - the choice is yours at a house priced significantly below the new tax value.
