For Sale $540,000
Whether your vision is restoration, renovation, or simply enjoying a classic mid-century home on acreage, opportunities like this are becoming increasingly difficult to find within a ten-minute drive to downtown Asheville. Built in 1969, this home is mid-century modern at its finest. The approach immediately sets the tone, with long brick planter beds stretching across the front of the home and leading to the distinctive angled brick entry wall—the reverse side of the home's dramatic fireplace and one of its defining architectural features. As you step inside, you're welcomed by a cedar-lined entry closet, original period light fixtures, warm wood accents, and a home that has remained remarkably true to its era. The kitchen and baths are original, creating a rare opportunity to enjoy a genuine mid-century time capsule. The elevated homesite offers a wonderful outdoor living experience with a spacious front porch, abundant parking, and long-range views toward the Blue Ridge Parkway. The main level features three bedrooms, one full bath, half bath, and a flexible bonus room ideal for a fourth bedroom, home office, or artist's studio. Downstairs, the basement offers excellent ceiling height, a second full bath, workshop space, an additional garage, and an easy opportunity to create additional finished living space. The 2.72-acre property continues to rise behind the home, where the views become even broader. Several gently sloping to level areas—including a generous garden site just above the home in the back, and expansive land to play, explore, or simply enjoy the outdoors. The property includes two outbuildings, a potting shed and the additional building has super high ceilings with an additional lockable storage space adding even more flexibility for hobbies, toys, or recreational vehicles/equipment. Homes with this much character, this much land, and this much opportunity rarely become available. Come experience 142 Avondale Road for yourself. Easy to show.
