Step into the warmth and character of this delightful 1930s cottage, where timeless charm meets thoughtful updates. This two-bedroom, one-and-a-half-bath home features a beautifully updated kitchen, gleaming hardwood floors, and a cozy working fireplace that anchors the living space.
Natural light pours into a sunny office—perfect for working from home, creative pursuits, or simply a peaceful retreat. Lovingly maintained, this home is truly move-in ready.
Tucked into a quiet neighborhood, you’re just moments from the energy of West Asheville—local restaurants, music, and everyday favorites—plus a weekly farmers market right at the end of the road. When you need to get anywhere else, quick access to the highway makes it effortless.
Outside, the opportunity expands. An additional lot offers rare flexibility: create an expansive garden oasis, design the ultimate outdoor living space, or explore subdivision potential to offset your mortgage.
Charming, connected, and full of possibility—this is the kind of home that doesn’t come along often.
