20 Zemery Ln, Waynesville, NC, 28786
About This Home
20 Zemery Ln is a classic colonial brick home built in 1948 that features a fantastic main home with an ideal guest home, only a short walk from downtown Waynesville. The two homes combined boast over 2,600 square feet of living area with 6 beds and 3 baths. 20 Zemery has a great open feel throughout the home, highlighted by 8-foot ceilings and large rooms with ample natural light. The main floor opens into a warm family room that invites you into the large living room, updated kitchen, and dedicated dining room. There is also a dedicated full guest bathroom on the main floor with a fully finished porch just off the kitchen. The classic wooden staircase leads up to the second floor, which offers four generous bedrooms and another full bathroom. 30 Zemery has been used as a long-term rental since August 2024 and is available for short-term or long-term rental. With two beds, one full bath, a kitchen, and a large living room featuring mountain views, this guest home could be the perfect mother-in-law suite or rental property. There is plenty of storage underneath 20 Zemery, including a dedicated 1-car garage and a large storage area. In front of the guest home, a roughly 30-foot by 30-foot gravel driveway offers great overflow parking and space for your guests. When you step into the back yard, you’ll find raised garden beds starting to sprout garlic, herbs, and carrots. Mature trees and garden beds are scattered throughout this well-laid-out double lot, offering great shade, privacy, and beautiful spring blooms. Recent important updates include a full main home rewire, new heat pumps installed in 2024, and new roofs for both homes installed in 2022. These recent updates help make this home truly move-in-ready, allowing you to move in now while you customize this beauty exactly as you'd like. 20 and 30 Zemery are within walking distance of downtown Waynesville, a 5-10 minute drive to most Waynesville attractions, and a 35-minute drive to downtown Asheville.
