Endless opportunities await on this truly one-of-a-kind Bent Creek property featuring two move-in-ready homes, a charming detached studio/shop and nearly 40 years of cherished ownership. Whether you envision a multi-generational homestead, private guest accommodations or the foundation for a short-term rental portfolio, this exceptional property offers incredible flexibility in one of Asheville’s most sought-after outdoor recreation areas.
The first home offers two bedrooms and two full baths (one is an en-suite) on the main level, along with a granite kitchen, coffee bar, pantry and doors opening to a spacious rear deck. Downstairs, the finished basement expands the possibilities with a large den, full bath, kitchenette and two additional flex rooms previously used as sleeping spaces. With separate living areas on both levels, the home lends itself beautifully to hosting extended family or guests.
The second home was thoughtfully designed for accessibility with a ramped entrance, extra-wide doorways and an accessible primary suite featuring a walk-in tub and roll-under vanity. This home also includes two bedrooms, two full baths, oversized closets, a huge laundry room with a sink and an open living, dining and kitchen layout with pantry. A fully covered front porch overlooks the expansive side yard and provides the perfect place for rocking chairs and quiet mornings. Interior stairs lead to a full unfinished basement offering abundant storage and future potential.
The detached “shop” adds yet another layer of versatility. Previously used as a beauty salon and more recently as private overnight guest space, it includes a half bath, wall heater, portable air conditioner and the original hair-washing sink. It could become a studio, home office, creative workspace, guest retreat or the cutest little getaway imaginable.
Located in the heart of Bent Creek, this property places outdoor adventure practically at your doorstep. Walk to the community park and its regularly scheduled neighborhood events, or travel approximately two miles to the North Carolina Arboretum and an incredible network of nearby trailheads. Bent Creek is beloved by hikers, mountain bikers and nature enthusiasts for its quick access to miles of forest trails, recreation and some of Western North Carolina’s most beautiful scenery.
Properties with this much flexibility, character and potential rarely come along. Create your homestead, gather multiple generations in one special place or bring your investment vision to life —the possibilities here truly are endless.
