Enjoy the privacy and charm of this lovely home, while being less than 30 minutes from downtown Asheville. You feel the charm as soon as you pull up with beautiful hardscaping throughout the property, thoughtful landscaping, raised beds for gardening, and a koi pond. Walk right into the cozy living room with wood burning stove from the slate covered rocking chair front porch. The open concept is great for entertaining with the kitchen viewing right into the living room. This home features two bedrooms, both with vaulted ceilings, each on their own level for privacy. The master bedroom level has its own private bathroom and deck! Off of the back of the home is an additional deck, great for grilling and relaxing in the sun. The backyard features a fire pit and storage shed. The Florence Nature Preserve is right nearby and you're walking distance to Little Bear Wallow Falls hike & Wildcat Rock Trails. This would make a great short term rental or starter home at this price point!
