For Sale $289,000
Spacious 4BR/2BA Brick Home (1,960 SF) in a highly convenient area—within walking distance to many businesses and just a few minutes' drive to downtown Asheville. The solid brick and concrete walls, along with newer insulated windows, significantly reduces traffic noise inside. Zoned Commercial Business II (CB2), this property offers exceptional flexibility: it's suitable not only for residential living but also for a wide range of commercial uses, including full-building Airbnb rentals (unlike residential zoning, which often limits or prohibits such use). Commercial properties are much rarer and significantly more valuable than residential ones. An adjoining vacant lot on the left (also zoned CB2) is too steep for its own driveway, but can be bought and combined with #258 to create a large, high-value commercial property—an exceptional investment opportunity that's very hard to find.
