Modest in size but rich in personality, this 2-bedroom, 1-bath home retains many of the details that make older Asheville homes so special: original hardwood floors, abundant natural light, high ceilings, picture rail molding, an ornamental fireplace, transom windows, and a sunny, oversized dining room. The bath continues the vintage charm with a clawfoot tub, pedestal sink, and original built-in medicine cabinet, while a thoughtful period-inspired color palette complements the home’s early-20th-century roots. Off-street parking adds everyday convenience. Outside has been lovingly transformed into a remarkable urban farmstead and edible landscape, with organic soil that has been cultivated without pesticides or chemicals. Expertly terraced garden beds maximize the usable space, with French drains incorporated throughout the terraces to help manage water and maintain healthy growing conditions. Trellises and scaffolding support climbing vines and vegetables, while an impressive collection of native plants, ornamentals, herbs, fruits, and edible plantings creates a garden that is both productive and beautiful. Rustic patios and platforms are tucked throughout the landscape, creating places to sit, gather, garden, or simply enjoy what is growing around you. A natural dead hedge provides habitat for wildlife and contributes to the property’s wonderfully organic, eco-conscious character. Garden sheds offer space for tools and supplies, while mature shade trees provide a welcome place to rest after an afternoon spent tending the gardens. This is not a manicured suburban backyard—it is a living, working landscape created with intention, creativity, and a genuine love of growing food and sharing it with the surrounding community. For the gardener, urban homesteader, or anyone dreaming of a little more connection to the land without leaving Asheville, this is a truly special opportunity. Come experience your own urban farmstead in the heart of Asheville.

Extensively renovated, blending original 1920s character with new systems: new roof, siding, plumbing and electrical; tankless water heater with spray-foam insulation; fully encapsulated crawlspace. Interior upgrades include a chef's kitchen (custom cabinetry, marble surfaces, stainless appliances), spa-quality bathrooms, open floor plan, formal dining room, office/library, sunroom, composite decking, fenced yard, and a basement workshop with exterior entry. In 2024, the owners added an attached two-car garage at a cost of over $100,000 — a substantial, very recent capital improvement. Step through the covered front porch of this beautifully reimagined 1923 home and discover a rare combination: century-old craftsmanship layered with a true top-to-bottom renovation — new roof, siding, plumbing, tankless water heater, spray-foam insulation, and a fully encapsulated crawlspace, so nothing was left untouched. Wide-plank wood floors, French doors, and pocket doors carry the home's original character into a light-filled, open layout built for how people actually live today. At the heart of the home, a chef-caliber kitchen anchors the main level — custom cabinetry, marble surfaces, an oversized island, gas range, double ovens, and a beverage refrigerator make it as functional as it is beautiful, opening onto a spacious dining room and sun-filled breakfast area. A gracious living room and adjoining family room share a striking see-through fireplace, while a separate sitting room gives the main floor even more room to spread out. A full bath and a generous walk-in closet complete the first floor. Upstairs, the primary suite is a true retreat — a 23-foot-long bedroom, a walk-in closet, and a spa-style primary bath with a garden tub. Two additional bedrooms (one with its own fireplace), a second full bath, and a dedicated laundry room round out the second level. Since purchase, the old gravel driveway gave way to a major upgrade that's genuinely hard to find on a home this age: a detached, 720-square-foot two-car-plus garage in the backyard, wired with electricity and with room for a full workshop — with its own private access from the street behind the home. Extra storage, hobby space, studio potential, or simply parking that never competes with the house. Outside, a huge deck, a wraparound porch, and a partially fenced, private yard make the most of the level 0.15-acre lot. A full basement with exterior entry adds even more storage or workshop potential. Natural gas heat with radiant floor warmth, central air, insulated windows, and a security system round out a home where the character comes without the compromises. Moments from the restaurants, galleries, and breweries of the River Arts District, with easy access to downtown Asheville. Zoned for Hall Fletcher Elementary, Asheville Middle, and Asheville High.
