This quintessential cottage is the perfect opportunity for a first-time homeowner or an investor! This cute 2 bed/1 bath home sits across from Living Web Farms, an educational organic farm, which provides a peaceful view from your 300+ sqft covered front porch. The home also has new plumbing and new heat, super efficient wood stove, and newer appliances. The spacious kitchen opens into a combined living/dining area, both with access to the oversized front porch, while the bedrooms are set up in an easy jack/jill layout. This home also has a fenced in yard and mature trees to enjoy. It is conveniently located less than 2 miles from a grocery, 5 miles from the Asheville Airport with all the nearby shops and breweries, and is adjacent to the Pisgah National Forest. This home is perfect for anyone who wants to take advantage of, or cater to those, looking to enjoy the best outdoor activities Western North Carolina has to offer.
*Taxable value of land and structures on it ("additions") is determined regularly by local assessors and does not affect market price.
