Property Description

BUY THE HOUSE. GET THE LOT. DECIDE WHAT TO DO WITH THE REST. This is more than a charming 1930s West Asheville cottage—it’s a two-property opportunity. One purchase includes a beautifully maintained two-bedroom, one-and-a-half-bath home plus a separate buildable lot, giving you options that are increasingly hard to find. Move right into the cottage while you dream about what comes next. Build a second home next door. Create a private garden and expansive outdoor space. Build for family, guests, or future plans. Or sell the additional lot and put the proceeds toward your mortgage. The choice is yours. The cottage itself is warm, comfortable, and move-in ready, with an updated kitchen, gleaming hardwood floors, a cozy working fireplace, and a sunny office that works beautifully as a home office, creative space, or quiet retreat. And the location delivers, too. Tucked into a quiet West Asheville neighborhood, you’re close to restaurants, music, local favorites, and the weekly farmers market at the end of the road, with quick highway access when you need to go farther. House + buildable lot = two opportunities in one. Whether you want to expand, build, garden, invest, or reduce your mortgage, this is a rare chance to buy one property and have the flexibility of two.
