Description

Square footage is actually 2269 heated finished+ 324 main level 3 season room+ 1331 lower level unfinished space. That's over 3900 SQ FT UNDER ROOF! Your Asheville-area mountain retreat with room to live, create, work and grow. This rare custom-built brick ranch sits privately on 0.81 acres and offers an exceptional combination of space, flexibility and opportunity. Lovingly maintained by the same owner for more than 40 years, this timeless home provides the solid construction and generous spaces that are increasingly difficult to find. Imagine having room to build, garden, play and breathe, surrounded by mature trees, established gardens, stone retaining walls and abundant wildlife. Outdoor living comes naturally with a 26'x12' covered front porch, two concrete patios and a 324 sq ft enclosed three-season room overlooking the peaceful landscape. Inside, natural light fills the home through multiple skylights and sun tubes. The main level features two ensuite bedrooms, a third guest bedroom and full bath, along with spacious living, dining and gathering areas. The kitchen is warm and inviting, featuring a fireplace, coffee bar, skylight and generous workspace. A bright living room and expansive three-season room provide comfortable spaces for everyday living or entertaining. The lower level is where the possibilities really expand. Approximately 469 sq ft of finished flex space—not included in heated square footage due to access through unheated space—includes a family room with a second fireplace and a bonus room that could serve as a home office, hobby room, exercise space or guest overflow. Need serious workspace? The 1,371 sq ft workshop and tandem garage is a hobbyist's dream, offering room for woodworking, vehicles, equipment, storage and projects, with potential for a variety of uses subject to applicable regulations. The property's flexible layout also provides possibilities for multigenerational living, extended guest accommodations or other lifestyle needs. And for the buyer with vision, there's another opportunity: buy below renovated-home pricing and make it yours. Rather than paying a premium for someone else's renovations, you can bring your own ideas to a well-built home with tremendous space, character and potential. Adding to the sense of privacy, the seller owns Lot #8 across the drive and intends to leave it vacant. Should the seller decide to sell in the future, the buyer will have a first right of refusal. More than a home, this is an opportunity to create the mountain lifestyle, workspace and flexible living arrangement you've been looking for—all just minutes from everyday conveniences.
