About this home

Discover easy mountain living in this charming 2-bedroom, 2-bath home nestled in the desirable Ridgecrest area of Black Mountain. Offering convenient one-level living, this unique property combines character, comfort, and privacy in a peaceful setting just minutes from downtown Black Mountain and a short drive to Asheville.

The spacious living, dining, and kitchen areas flow seamlessly together, creating an inviting space for entertaining or relaxing at home. Enjoy the outdoors from the large covered porch overlooking the fairly private surroundings—perfect for morning coffee, evening gatherings, or simply taking in the tranquil mountain atmosphere. A level driveway provides easy year-round access, while the large storage building offers plenty of room for tools, outdoor gear, hobbies, or additional storage. Whether you're looking for a full-time residence, mountain getaway, or investment opportunity, this one-of-a-kind home offers a rare blend of history, functionality, and location in the heart of Western North Carolina.
