Very rare opportunity to own a brand new construction home near Asheville in the heart of downtown Mars Hill, listed below appraised value with the appraisal uploaded in MLS. Buyers can walk in with positive equity from day one. Thoughtfully designed for one level living in Western North Carolina, this 3 bedroom, 2 bath home offers a one step entry, smooth mobility friendly flooring, and a layout that lives beautifully now and for years to come. Inside, the open living, dining, and kitchen area feels bright and welcoming with vaulted ceilings, fireplace, and a natural flow for everyday living or gathering. The primary suite is peaceful and practical, with a spacious walk in closet, double vanity, and beautiful walk in tile shower. Every detail was chosen to feel fresh, warm, and timeless with clean finishes, natural textures, and modern lighting. Enjoy low maintenance mountain home living without giving up outdoor space, mountain views, or the ability to walk into town. The covered front porch offers year round views of Bailey Mountain, while the covered back deck provides another quiet place to enjoy the cool mountain air with winter views of Craggy Gardens. The two car garage provides room for storage, plus a dedicated storage closet for the things you want tucked neatly away. The location is where the magic is for buyers looking for a walkable downtown Mars Hill home with small town living 20 minutes to Asheville. Live right on Main Street in the charming town of Mars Hill, where you can walk to coffee shops, restaurants, and local events, plus the post office, medical offices, Mars Hill University, and the local theater. Don’t miss First Fridays, the Bailey Mountain Cloggers, or the everyday joy of living in a small mountain town that still feels like a community. Step outside and enjoy access to one of Mars Hill’s favorite traditions, the famous 3 mile Loop, a beloved in town route that connects you to the rhythm of the neighborhood and leads toward The Bailey Mountain Preserve. Bailey Mountain is one of the town’s treasured landmarks, offering 300 acres of conservation land, miles of trails, mountain views near Asheville, and protected green space for generations to enjoy. This location also puts you close to so much of what makes Western North Carolina special. Downtown Marshall and Weaverville are about 15 minutes away, Burnsville and Asheville are about 25 minutes away, and Johnson City, TN is about 45 minutes away, giving you easy access to two vibrant regional hubs with regional airport options nearby. Hatley Pointe is about 20 minutes away, offering skiing, year round dining, and a lift access mountain bike park planned for 2026. Rafting, floating, biking, hiking, local food, mountain views, and small town events are all part of everyday life here. Homes like this simply do not come along often: brand new construction, Main Street location, one level living, covered outdoor spaces, mountain views, garage storage, and a front row seat to downtown Mars Hill life. The sister home next door is also available, creating a unique opportunity for buyers looking for nearby living, investment potential, or two beautiful new homes in one of Madison County’s most special small towns.
