For Sale $625,000
In the heart of downtown Asheville, the award-winning restoration of the historic Castanea Building offers a rare combination of architectural character and easy city living. Original details were thoughtfully preserved, including penny tile floors, handsome solid oak doors and transom windows, while large windows fill the condo with natural light. The open kitchen keeps the living space connected and makes entertaining easy. The primary suite includes a walk-through closet and private balcony for stepping outside and enjoying a little fresh air. Generous windows, warm wood floors and beautifully preserved millwork give the home a character that newer construction simply can't duplicate. Step out the front door and restaurants, coffee shops, galleries, theaters and the everyday pleasures of downtown Asheville are all close at hand.
