Classic Tudor Charm + An Incredible Marion Location!
If location matters, this one checks a lot of boxes. Just a short walk from downtown Marion, minutes from I-40 and Lake James, and an easy drive to Asheville and the High Country, this distinctive 1930s Tudor-style home puts some of Western North Carolina’s best destinations within easy reach.
Inside, you’ll find the character you simply can’t recreate in a newer home. Original hardwoods, beautiful built-ins, custom cabinetry and timeless architectural details are paired with thoughtful updates and a sophisticated color palette. With 5 bedrooms and 3.5 baths, there’s plenty of room to spread out while still maintaining the warmth and personality that make an older home so special.
The finished basement adds another layer of versatility, offering additional living space with both interior access and a separate entrance—ideal for guests, extended family, or potential rental opportunity.
Outside, enjoy a manageable, low-maintenance yard, driveway and on-street parking, plus additional possibilities above the garage.
Spend the morning at Lake James, walk downtown for dinner, head to Asheville for the day, or escape to the Blue Ridge Parkway, High Country and ski slopes. This is more than a beautiful historic home—it’s a great home base for enjoying everything Western North Carolina has to offer.
