Welcome to this cozy cottage nestled into a quiet, peaceful setting that's still close to everything you need — 12 miles to downtown Asheville, 7.5 miles to the shops and restaurants along Haywood Rd in West Asheville, and just 3 miles to the grocery store.
At 640 sq ft and fully updated in 2020 this is a wonderful home to call your own. Everything's on one level: 2 bedrooms, a full bath, and a laundry area. It's bright and welcoming, with a covered back porch that looks out over the open field behind the homes.
The owners also put real money into the important stuff — basement waterproofing, sump pumps, and structural repairs all backed by a transferable warranty. Shared well and septic system and with a 3-part water filtration system.
Out back, there's a big, sunny field with long-range mountain views, fenced garden bed, and level area at the top — perfect if you've been dreaming of a garden, some chickens, or just wide-open space to spread out.
Come see it for yourself — the setting is peaceful, and the possibilities are wide open. All furnishings negotiable.
