Description

This is West Asheville living at its best! Ideally positioned just one block from vibrant Haywood Road and directly across from the west Asheville Public Library, this beautiful .29-acre, 3-bedroom, 2-bath home offers an exceptional combination of original charm, thoughtful updates and flexible living spaces.

Inside, original oak hardwood floors bring warmth and character throughout the home, complemented by a freshly painted interior and a split floorplan. Enjoy cooking or baking in the spacious kitchen complete with stainless steel appliances, maple cabinets, and a gas range. A bright and spacious family room directly off the kitchen adds an inviting gathering space
and complements the home's easy flow. Need some flex space? The bonus room offers endless possibilities: a dedicated home office, private guest suite, fitness room, or creative studio. Above it, a charming lofted area provides additional storage and the opportunity to create a cozy reading nook, meditation space, or secluded retreat.

The outdoor spaces are where this home truly shines! The level .29-acre lot is designed for both entertaining and enjoying the everyday pleasures of home. Established garden beds with irrigation are ready for your next planting season, while the generous backyard offers plenty of room for entertaining, gardening, play, or potential future expansion (buyer to confirm). Just off the back porch, the top-of-the-line Hot Spring® spa creates an inviting place to unwind at the end of the day.

The home has been thoughtfully updated with several major improvements, including a freshly painted interior, a brand-new architectural roof, HVAC replaced in 2021, a Hot Spring hot tub, and a newer washer and dryer, all conveying with the property. With its prime West Asheville location, original oak floors, flexible bonus spaces, level lot, mature outdoor potential, and substantial recent updates, this is a home that offers both character and convenience. A rare opportunity to enjoy the best of West Asheville, with Haywood Road practically at your doorstep all while still having the space to garden, entertain, relax, and make the home uniquely yours.
