About This Home

Perched between canopy and city, just steps from downtown Asheville’s cultural core, resides this striking modern “birdhouse” - ideal for professionals, investors, or “house hackers” who are seeking convenience, walkability, and/or profit. With three primary suites, the opportunities for cohabitation are abundant. The open concept main and upper level flow with light and volume - while the lower two levels are ready to become a second apartment with the simple addition of a kitchenette and exterior staircase. A starry evening calls for a hot tub soak, followed by a fire on the upper deck. City living at its best with a lower level entrance, pathway, and gate direct to Charlotte + enough outdoor deck space for the perfect potted plant oasis or create a garden to line the gently sloped backyard. The basement level has epoxy-lined floors ready for a game room or urban workshop for a bike collection or other hobbies. Furniture can convey. There is truly nothing like it on the market right now!
