Step into a piece of Asheville’s history with this 1925 brick residence, located in the heart of the city. Spanning just over 2,000 square feet with 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, this home is not move-in ready—it requires a full, comprehensive renovation from top to bottom.
For those with vision and creativity, it offers a rare blank canvas: original architectural elements remain, waiting to be restored and reimagined alongside modern comforts. Its historic setting, surrounded by tree-lined streets and other character homes, provides the perfect backdrop for a thoughtful transformation.
This is not a project for the faint of heart, but for the buyer who embraces the challenge, the reward is the opportunity to bring a classic residence back to life in one of Asheville’s most desirable neighborhoods. Enjoy proximity to the city’s vibrant arts scene, dining, and boutique shopping while shaping a home that reflects both history and your own personal style.
