151 Monarch Rd, Hendersonville, NC 28739

Welcome to 151 Monarch! A meticulously maintained, move in ready home in Fox Run Preserve, one of Hendersonville's premier gated communities, with luxurious grounds and quintessential Western North Carolina views. With four bedrooms and three full baths, this home spans 2,458 square feet and is situated on nearly an acre of wooded privacy at the end of a brick paver drive. In true Arts and Crafts form, you are greeted by a large, covered front porch situated beneath shingled gables and stone based columns. Through the front door, stained glass filtered light fills the foyer, where wood floors carry through the main living areas. Two bedrooms and a full bath sit just off the entry, tucked away from the daily flow of the house. Down the hall, the kitchen opens up with granite counters, richly stained raised panel cabinetry, stainless appliances with gas range, a prep island, and a peninsula breakfast bar under pendant lighting. A large walk in pantry handles the storage. The dining area sits alongside beneath a vaulted ceiling, with French doors to the screened back patio where you can relax and listen to the fountain in complete privacy. The Living Room rises to its own vault and centers on a stacked stone fireplace with a timber mantel, flanked by custom built in shelving with cabinetry below. Plantation shutters run throughout, and the light moves through the space all day. The primary suite is set apart, with a tray ceiling, two walk in closets, dual vanities topped in dark granite, and a generous tiled shower. A dedicated laundry room with built in storage completes the main level. Single level living, fully realized. Upstairs, a spacious carpeted bedroom/art room/flex space with its own full bath and dormer windows works as a guest suite, home office, or game room. Off the Living Room, a vaulted screened porch with beadboard ceiling and skylights opens through a wide cased opening crowned with stained glass. From there, a stone patio with a bubbling water feature anchors terraced beds, gravel paths, raised garden beds, and mature roses climbing the hillside. Deer wander the woods beyond. Fox Run Preserve spans 86 acres with just 44 homesites, more than a quarter preserved as green space, with blazed walking trails, a community pond, and a park with fire pits. Minutes from downtown Hendersonville and Flat Rock. If you are looking for an elevated home with serene outdoor living spaces and room for gardening and respite, look no further.
