Great opportunity in Mills River! Sitting on just under 2 wooded and private acres with a stream flowing through the property, this wonderful home is waiting for new owners! Cozy and with tons of character, it is move-in ready w/ a brand new roof installed in 2025! The main level has a spacious open kitchen & dining area with French doors leading into a lovely sun-room & screened in porch! Two bedrooms & a full bath complete the main level. Upstairs is devoted entirely to the primary suite oasis, with tongue & groove ceilings, a large walk-in closet, mini office nook & a gorgeous bathroom. The basement of this home was set up for a home office that offers several meeting or storage spaces. There is also plenty of room for a workshop or studio. Outside you'll find two good sized decks which are perfect for listening to the babbling stream. The completely wooded lot means no lawn to maintain! A circular asphalt driveway completes this home! Minutes from Asheville Airport and breweries!
*Taxable value of land and structures on it ("additions") is determined regularly by local assessors and does not affect market price.
