Discover the potential of this spacious ranch-style home on 1.88 acres in Candler, just minutes outside of Asheville. This three bedroom home features an additional flex-space room that was traditionally used as a additional bedroom, and four baths across nearly 2,000 sq ft of living space. The main level showcases hardwood floors, light-filled living areas, and three baths.
