A full bath and a generous walk-in closet complete the first floor.

Two additional bedrooms (one with its own fireplace), a second full bath, and a dedicated laundry room round out the second level.

A full basement with exterior entry adds even more storage or workshop potential. Natural gas heat with radiant floor warmth, central air, insulated windows, and a security system round out a home where the character comes without the compromises. Moments from the restaurants, galleries, and breweries of the River Arts District, with easy access to downtown Asheville. Zoned for Hall Fletcher Elementary, Asheville Middle, and Asheville High. This is a home that rewards a close look — schedule your private showing today.
