The spacious layout offers comfortable living areas perfect for relaxing or entertaining, while the generously sized fenced backyard provides a rare private retreat just minutes from the heart of the city-ideal for pets, gardening, or gathering with friends. Enjoy the best of RAD and Asheville living with parks, coffee shops, restaurants, and local shopping just a short 15-minute walk or bike away in vibrant downtown Asheville. Whether you're looking for a full-time residence or a stylish city escape, this mid-century modern classic delivers on location, character, and charm, all on a quiet, dead-end street. 589 SQFT of bonus space with recently permitted heat strips, making this live and feel like a 1,848 SF home!
