This mountain hideaway on a dead end road is just 2 minutes to downtown Asheville, but feels a world away! Charming cedar home has heart pine floors, fireplace, metal roof, updated electric and plumbing, central HVAC; basement has cement floors and wood stove, garage and separate entrance (could be apartment) and sits on almost half an acre (extra buildable lot?) with 180 degree mountain views, gardens, raised beds, and stone work. A rare find!
