Architectural Narrative
Set on a beautifully level and meticulously maintained 0.37-acre lot, this exceptional 4BR/3BA home offers the perfect blend of timeless character, generous living spaces, and thoughtful modern updates. From the moment you arrive, the inviting curb appeal and evident pride of ownership create an immediate sense of warmth and home.
Inside, the main level is designed for both everyday comfort and effortless entertaining. A welcoming living room with a gas log fireplace provides the perfect gathering space, while the formal dining room adds classic charm for holidays and special occasions. The remodeled kitchen is truly the heart of the home—featuring updated appliances, abundant counter space, and seamless flow into a cozy secondary living area anchored by a stunning wood-burning fireplace. A spacious main-level bedroom and beautifully updated full bath with a luxurious walk-in tile shower offer ideal flexibility for guests or multigenerational living.
Upstairs, the expansive primary suite feels like a private retreat, complete with a walk-in closet and a spa-inspired en suite bath featuring a soaking tub, dual vanity, and exceptional storage. Two additional bedrooms share a convenient Jack-and-Jill bath, creating a functional and comfortable layout for family or visitors alike.
The finished basement adds even more versatility, providing the perfect space for a media room, recreation area, home office, or playroom. Outside, the rear deck overlooks a lush, usable backyard—ideal for relaxing evenings, gardening, play, or entertaining under the trees.
Every inch of this home reflects careful stewardship and quality investment. Significant improvements include a $30K chimney renovation with new wood-burning fireplace, interior painting throughout, updated flooring, new carpet, modernized stairs and railing, new garage door, painted front porch, and a beautifully renovated bathroom with upscale finishes.
Ideally located with convenient access to the interstate, shopping, dining, and just under 20 minutes to downtown Asheville, this home offers both tranquility and convenience. Per seller, the property has experienced no flooding during 30 years of ownership, including during Helene. It is NOT located in a flood zone.
Lovingly cared for and filled with decades of treasured memories, this remarkable property is ready to welcome its next chapter—and its next owners—home.
