Calling all dreamers, renovators, flippers, and lovers of a good before-and-after story! Once a one-of-a-kind home with incredible style and personality, this three-story property is now ready for someone to reinvent it. It isn't looking for a little TLC. It's looking for a hero. Behind years of deferred maintenance is a home with a remarkable floor plan and infinite potential. The main level features two bedrooms, a full bath, kitchen, multiple living areas, a formal dining room, and an expansive sunroom. The lower level offers a bonus room, office or recreation space, a full bath, flex space, and an attached 2-car garage. Upstairs, the entire level is dedicated to the primary suite with a walk-in closet, full bath, and private enclosed balcony. Outside you'll find multiple decks and patio spaces that could once again become incredible places to enjoy the outdoors with seasonal views. The location is a winner, just minutes from restaurants, shopping, the interstate, and downtown Asheville. This is an estate sale, and this home needs significant renovation. There is no power, no functioning HVAC, and utilities are off. Because of that, all square footage is represented as unheated. Showing appointments are required, and caution is advised while touring the property due to extensive deferred maintenance. Most of the personal property may convey with the sale if desired with final details to be negotiated with an offer. Every masterpiece starts with a blank canvas. Every great comeback starts somewhere. If you've got the vision, the determination, and don't mind rolling up your sleeves, this could be the transformation of the century.

Step inside and you'll feel it immediately: this is a home that has been loved. The kitchen alone will stop you in your tracks, the kind of space that entertains, with an oversized gas cooktop and oven, farmhouse sink, and plenty of cabinet space.

Four bedrooms and three and a half baths give you room to grow, to gather, to make this house yours. The big stuff is already done, too. Updated furnace, water heater, roof, and new sewer line, so all that's left for you is to move in and start making memories. Evenings will find you on the deck, coffee or wine in hand, enjoying your private backyard and flagstone fire pit. It's the rare setup that lets you have both: a peaceful retreat to come home to and a vibrant city to explore whenever the mood strikes. This isn't just a house. It's the home you've been waiting for.
