MULTIPLE OFFERS RECEIVED-HIGHEST & BEST DUE BY MONDAY, JUNE 9TH AT 12:00 NOON. Cute retro cottage in prime location is waiting for your finishing touches to bring it back to its fullest potential! The quality of the construction is evident and takes you back to 1930's Asheville. Lots of hardwoods and unique ornamentation provide an undeniable cozy feel. Flexible floor plan options on the main level and ample sized bedrooms on the upper level. Unfinished basement of 692 SF has ceiling heights below 7 ft and not included in calculations. A surprisingly private upper level fenced yard is a gardener's dream or great for growing families/fur babies. Walking distance to Mission Hospital, Biltmore Village, and Biltmore Estate. Downtown Asheville and I-40 are only 2-3 minutes away. The "good bones" cliche applies to this house. It needs a good bit of work to restore it to its original glory. Estate sale offered "as is". Seller will not make repairs.
