Welcome home to 245 Potato Branch Road — a sweet, well-loved retreat tucked on just over 4 sprawling acres in the heart of Leicester. This 3 bedroom, 2 bath home offers an open, split bedroom floor plan and year round mountain views that greet you morning and night from the covered front porch. The land is cleared and gently rolling, bordered by a gentle creek, and ready for whatever you dream up - gardening, farming, homesteading, or simply room to roam. Two outbuildings, one metal and one wood, add versatile storage or workshop space. This home has been cared for with real intention: fresh interior paint, a pre-listing inspection was completed with many repairs already done, a new water heater and pressure tank installed, and new fiber internet is in place. You're just minutes from Leicester's local grocery store and a short drive to all downtown Asheville has to offer - serene mountain living with everyday conveniences close at hand. It is time to fall in LOVE with this Leicester gem!
