For Sale $480,000
Back on market through no fault of the seller. A peaceful retreat offering space, privacy, and flexibility. This 4-bedroom, 4-bath home with bonus room spans just under 3,200 sq ft on nearly an acre of wooded land. Surrounded by mature azaleas, ferns, and seasonal blooms with winter mountain views and vibrant fall color. A brand new whole-house HVAC system was installed in July 2025. One side has operated as a successful short-term rental; the lower level—with private entrance and dedicated stairs—offers great potential as a guest suite, in-law quarters, or long-term rental. Both spaces have separate entrances and stair access. Additional features include a screened-in porch, outdoor shed with 220-amp power, and a yard dotted with blueberry bushes, plum and peach trees. Located just 5 minutes from Biltmore Park’s dining, shops, galleries, and movie theatre, and only 15 minutes to both downtown Asheville and the airport. A rare opportunity to enjoy space, income potential, and an unbeatable setting.
