“Seller Says”
There’s something special about Asheville that the world is beginning to discover. This thriving mountain city features a funky and eclectic downtown, hundreds of studios and art galleries, a world-class culinary and craft beer culture, a thriving live music scene and, of course, the awe-inspiring scenery of the Blue Ridge Mountains. This must-experience destination is conveniently located a few hours by car from international flight hubs in Charlotte and Atlanta.
Asheville is home to the world’s only Foodtopian Society, evident in its many independent restaurants, breweries and farmers markets. Residents and tourists also enjoy the vibrant music and arts scene, festivals year round, plus a multitude of high-adventure outdoor activities throughout its beautiful Blue Ridge Mountains environment.
With top-notch health care and attractions such as Biltmore, it's easy to see why Livability named Asheville as one of the Top 100 Best Places to Live. Asheville also home to several colleges and universities.
Wild Wok Sushi, Creekside Taphouse, the Laughing Seed and Limones and many other top-notch restaurants, all within ten minutes from this house.
Whole Foods Market, Aldi and Amazing Savings-- all within 5-15 minutes away.
The old awoke charm and character, original floors and windows, stone fireplace and massive tiered yard will be enjoyable for the new owner.
The Asheville area is a wonderfully eclectic place. Between numerous places to participate in and enjoy the arts, 50 local breweries, numerous varied food trucks, 100+ brick and mortar restaurants and the endless opportunities for outdoor adventure adventures, there is nowhere else I would rather be.
This home was meticulously reconstructed in 2014 as an arts-and-craft bungalow that retains much of its original charm. The numerous French doors, skylights and windows provide tons of light, amplifying the custom details such as original wood trim, hand-carver window casings, open space to the second floor, stained glass window in the upper bath and so much more. The enormous backyard offers endless opportunities for relaxing, gardening, entertaining or even adding an art studio or workshop on the cleated space above the house.
Something I love to do is take my puppies to the little beach at the WNC nature center, hiking and swimming in the watering holes at Warren Wilson College and hanging out at the nearby dogs park on the water with other dog lovers. My favorite local pastimes are hiking on the Blue Ridge Parkway, kayaking in Lakes Jocassee and Fontana and swimming in the river down the road, while it's convenient to downtown, and especially Whole Foods Market is certainly a huge plus, the privacy and size of the lot is on is also striking. The property is also just minutes away from the Swannanoa River, Warren Wilson hiking trails and the Blue Ridge Parkway. There is no shortage of outdoor opportunities just minutes from this location.
Because of the double insulation and back up furnace we added to this home, our utility costs are minimal. Indeed, we get a notice from Duke energy every few months congratulating us about our better-than-average savings.
