Welcome to this beautifully updated 1950s home where modern convenience meets classic West Asheville charm. This house has a main living area with two bedrooms and two full bathrooms, as well as a secondary living space with its own private entrance on the basement level, perfect for a guest suite, in-law quarters, or a potential rental (previously a successful Airbnb). Step into a warm and welcoming open floor plan highlighted by a cozy gas fireplace. The updated kitchen is complete with quartz countertops, stylish tile backsplash, LG stainless steel appliances, and modern finishes. The primary bedroom boasts a private ensuite bath, and both bedrooms include clever built-in closet solutions. Pull down-stairs lead to a large attic space ready for your vision. Outside, the vinyl and rock façade lends a charming cottage feel. Energy-efficient solar panels, a newer HVAC system, and a one-car garage with two additional off-street parking spots provide both comfort and practicality. Situated just minutes from all that West Asheville has to offer, this home is a rare find that combines location, flexibility, and character.
