178 Montford Avenue, Asheville, NCVideo Tour of 178 Montford Avenue, Asheville, NC.
Own a piece of Asheville's history! This beautifully renovated Montford showpiece is in the heart of downtown and one minute's walk from renowned restaurants Tall John and Nine Mile. Easy stroll to Montford Park for tennis or Shakespeare in the Park; under one mile to downtown Asheville. Enjoy the welcoming front porch and historic charm of the spacious foyer. All the rooms are generously sized and there are four renovated bathrooms, all in the classic designer style of the era. Great for entertaining, especially with the updated chef's-style kitchen, two covered porches, a huge backyard with a firepit, and a place for dining al fresco on the concrete patio. The eat-in kitchen has abundant maple cabinetry and lovely quartz countertops. Second level has three very large bedrooms including the primary suite with its walk-in closet and large primary bath. The gorgeous guest/hall bathroom has marble floors and a huge soaking tub. Enjoy the gorgeous sunset view from the sunroom-perfect as an office, art or yoga studio, or sleeping area. Third floor is an awesome hangout room and bedroom that's just right for an office or guest area. In addition to the amazing main levels, there is a 500+ SF super-sweet studio/bonus area (not contiguous) with a separate entrance. It has a spacious bathroom with new clawfoot tub. Must see this lovely home to appreciate its class and charm. Amazing Montford location!
