About this home
First time ever on the market, this solid 3BR/2BA rancher offers a rare opportunity to own nearly 3 gently sloping acres in a peaceful setting just outside the Asheville city limits. Formerly used as a hay pasture for horses and adjacent to a quiet horse farm, the property combines open usable land with a convenient location less than 2 miles from the Blue Ridge Parkway and under 10 minutes to downtown Asheville. Updated in 2019, the home features comfortable one-level living, a metal roof, spacious basement, and an oversized detached two-car garage with ample room for storage, workshop space, or hobby use. The property has also proven to be a successful long-term rental, offering flexibility for primary residence, investment, or multigenerational living. With expansive usable acreage and favorable topography, the land presents a variety of possibilities for future expansion, gardens, hobby farming, or potential subdivision opportunities subject to county approval. A unique combination of convenience, versatility, and peaceful surroundings in one of Western North Carolina’s most desirable areas.
