About this home
Incredible downtown proximity meets flexible living and income potential in the heart of Historic Chicken Hill. Just steps from downtown Asheville and the Wilma Dykeman Greenway, this architect-designed residence puts coffee, fine dining, the River Arts District, and a rooftop bar just blocks away, with West Asheville and New Belgium only minutes from your door. Designed with an open, modern floorplan and thoughtfully updated by its current owners, the home offers wood floors, newer construction, two ensuite bedrooms with custom-built closets, and a beautifully refreshed main kitchen. The finished lower level now offers a separate studio apartment with its own kitchen and washer/dryer, creating exceptional flexibility for both homeowners and investors. Live in the upper two levels and use the studio as a long-term rental, live in the studio and rent the upper levels, explore short-term rental potential where permitted, or lease the entire property long term. The property has recently generated a total of $4,375/month in rental income, demonstrating the strong income potential while leaving the next owner free to choose how they want to use the property. With downtown at your doorstep and multiple ways to live, work, and generate income, 435 W Haywood Street is a rare opportunity to own a newer, architect-designed property in one of Asheville's most vibrant neighborhoods.
