Property Description

Private and peaceful country living with convenience to Asheville, Warren Wilson College, Outward Bound, and the Blue Ridge Parkway, this East Asheville brick ranch offers solid construction and good bones, timeless character, and 1.18 acres of beautiful, usable yard. Embossed tin ceiling tiles, rich hardwood floors, spacious rooms, and a gorgeous stone fireplace create warmth and personality throughout. This property is truly a gardener’s dream, featuring lots of open, level and sunny space; raised beds with thriving flowers, herbs, peppers and tomatoes; mature landscaping and a large, fenced backyard, perfect if you are a dog lover or just want room to roam in seclusion. Enjoy substantial outdoor living from the freshly painted rear deck overlooking the peaceful and private backyard. Inside, there are generous living spaces, a large kitchen with a dual-fuel range, a formal dining room, and a spacious main-level primary suite.

Room for an office down there too! A large storage building with built-in shelving and workspace provides endless possibilities for hobbyists, outdoor enthusiasts, gardeners, woodworkers or anyone needing extra room for tools, toys, and equipment. Other significant (and recent) improvements include a new SEER 14 heat pump and air-conditioning system (2025) paired with an Ecobee3 smart thermostat, new attic insulation (2024) for enhanced energy efficiency, and a new drain field (2024).
