About this home
A true urban oasis in North Asheville. Tucked just off Merrimon Avenue on a rare double lot, this 1954 Arts and Crafts-inspired home offers the best of both worlds: in-town convenience and year-round mountain views, with sunsets that steal the show every evening. The main level welcomes you with gleaming hardwood floors, large windows that fill every room with natural light, and a living room anchored by a gas fireplace. Custom built-in shelving frames a charming reading and dining nook, and the kitchen offers generous counter space, abundant cabinet storage, stainless appliances, and a window overlooking the lush backyard. Two beautiful bedrooms and bath finish this level. Downstairs, the fully finished lower level adds nearly 920 square feet and has its own separate entrance, with parking right outside and a welcoming water feature at the door. It’s currently a thriving hair salon, but it’s just as suited to a private apartment, guest suite, studio, or home business. A third bedroom, a second full bath, and laundry make it easy to live in. Accessibility is thoughtfully built in, with wide doorways, zero-grade entry, a roll-under sink, and bath grab bars. Outside is where this property truly shines. Multi-level decks with built-in benches invite you to linger over morning coffee or gather with friends as the sun sets over the mountains. The fully fenced, level backyard is framed by mature trees, flowering shrubs, and native plantings, creating a private retreat right in the city. The double lot also offers room to dream up a future ADU. Solar panels help keep energy costs down, and a workshop and storage outbuildings provide space for hobbies, tools, and gear. AT&T internet, city water and sewer, and no HOA add to the appeal. All of this sits just minutes from Merrimon Avenue’s dining and shops and a short drive to downtown. The lifestyle this home can offer is truly magical. Homes like this rarely come along in North Asheville. Schedule your showing today!
