About this home

Multiple offers received. Highest and best due Monday night. Spacious one-level ranch on a large lot with beautiful views! This solid brick home has wood floors, a gas fireplace, and a phenomenal yard! The lot is flat with a fenced back yard, a large back patio, and incredible mountain views. The basement has interior access and a garage door, making it a great option for a workshop or studio. Add your personal updates to make this home perfect! No septic permit found with Buncombe County; this is typical of homes built in the 1950's. Square footage does not match the county tax records, but the county has been notified.
