Currently used as a very successful short-term rental, this would make a great entry-level rental, second home, or full-time residence. (Seller has only allowed 30 day advanced bookings, so it’s easy to turn over as a primary residence). The large lot is level with views, firepit, a detached 2 car garage with electric, a separate storage shed and a large 1000+ square foot Quonset hut that currently serves as a home base for the sellers “back stock”, (has been used in the passed as a shop and a small business). Recently updated interior and new heat pump! This is a solid house, within 20-25 minutes of Asheville, there’s no need for I-40! Seller is NC Real Estate Agent.

**Seller is requesting "highest and best" offer by Wednesday, April 28th, by 12pm.** Charming 1930s cottage home, with a large front porch deck, on over .75 usable acres. Some original features of the home remain, such as 5 inch wood baseboards, large window frames and hardwood floors underneath the carpet. Yet, the kitchen and bath have both been updated and the windows are newer double paned. The yard is perfect for kids and pets, summer BBQ's, and plenty of space to grow your garden. When it comes to storage and utility, there are 2 garages on the property and a large Quonset hut, over 1000sqft, just waiting to be used as a workshop, work out studio, artist studio or all of the above! All this can be yours...come and get it!
