Classic West Asheville cottage in a prime location! Just one block from Malvern Hills Park (tennis & pickleball courts, walking trail, playground, and creek), an easy stroll to Haywood Road's vibrant shops, restaurants, and breweries, and only a mile from the Hominy Creek Greenway. This 2-bedroom, 1-bath charmer blends modern updates with timeless character. The remodeled kitchen features granite counters, stainless steel appliances, soft-close drawers, and a cozy eat-in nook. A large picture window and gleaming hardwood floors create a warm, inviting living room, while the updated bathroom-with tile shower surround-strikes the perfect balance of period style and modern convenience. Both bedrooms are comfortably sized and filled with natural light. The spacious laundry/mudroom opens to a covered back porch overlooking the oversized lot-a rare find in West Asheville! As if the location in West Asheville is not perfect enough already, the oversized lot adds even more potential to this home! Keep the large backyard to enjoy just as it is, or there is plenty of room to add a garage, a studio/craft space, an outdoor kitchen pavilion, or accessory apartment....so many options to craft your perfect lifestyle! Rest easy knowing so many of the house systems have been updated too: new roof in 2023, new gas furnace and air conditioning in 2021, new water heater 2024, encapsulated crawl space for moisture control, and efficient replacement windows. This home offers not just a place to live, but a lifestyle-walkable, connected, and full of potential.
