About this home

Head into downtown Asheville living at Rankin-Press Lofts, where a 1925 building has been transformed into some of the city's most distinctive urban residences. This first-floor unit offers 1,347 square feet of open, industrial-style living with two bedrooms, two bathrooms, and a private balcony overlooking the energy of the city below. Exposed ceiling joists, hardwood floors, and solar tubes bring warmth and natural light throughout, while soaring ceilings give the space an airy and open feel. The primary suite includes a generous walk-in closet and a spa-style bathroom with a garden tub and separate walk-in shower. The second bedroom offers flexibility as a guest room, home office, or den. Location is everything here. High Five Coffee, the Vault, TOPS for Shoes, Spa Theology, Curáte, and Zambra are all within a couple of blocks, alongside the full lineup of restaurants, galleries, and shops along Biltmore, Lexington, and Wall Street. Pack Square Park is an easy meander away for outdoor time in the heart of the city. Practical perks round out the package: a basement storage locker for extra space, and direct proximity to the Rankin Avenue parking garage for hassle-free parking. Monthly HOA dues cover water and sewer, and the building itself adds to the appeal, with an art-filled lobby and a solar-heated water system. Rarely does a home this easily accessible, this architecturally rich, and this move-in ready come available in the heart of downtown Asheville.
