Charming and move-in ready, this classic 1940s Black Mountain bungalow offers an affordable opportunity to own a single-family home just minutes from downtown. Set on a fully fenced 0.23-acre lot beneath mature hardwoods, the home combines original character with important recent improvements. Inside, you’ll find beautiful original hardwood floors, two bedrooms, a bonus room, and a separate laundry room with basement storage access. The covered front porch and spacious fenced yard offer plenty of room to relax, garden, or enjoy the mountain setting with pets.
Major improvements include a new roof in 2021, added insulation, exterior foundation waterproofing, and a French drain/drainage system. The home sustained no damage from Hurricane Helene. With public water and sewer, no HOA, and a location less than five minutes from downtown Black Mountain, this is a rare opportunity to own a move-in-ready home at an approachable price point in one of Western North Carolina’s most desirable mountain communities. Asheville is an easy drive away, while Old Fort, Catawba Falls, and countless outdoor recreation opportunities are just down the road.
