About this home

This adorable, light-filled, East Asheville cottage is located close to everything - downtown Asheville, Tunnel Rd., I-240, the Blue Ridge Parkway. Take your pick! Or just enjoy walking around the quiet Beverly Hills neighborhood. Set off the road by an extended driveway, this property is tucked into its own unique space with plenty of yard room for gardening or relaxing. Originally built in the 1920s, with an addition added in 1947, the home is full of historic charm yet updated with modern features that stay true to the cottage style. A NEW ROOF was installed in February 2024, the bathroom was remodeled in 2023, dishwasher and disposal added in 2022, custom 8'X10' shed built in 2021, hardwood floors redone in 2020, and new HVAC installed in 2019. So many updates! The basement has 2 extra rooms, accessed through the unfinished space. One is currently being used as a guest bedroom, and the other makes a great storage space. Come see this special property for yourself!
