About this home
Rare mid-century find in West Asheville Estates. Just hitting the market in time to celebrate Halloween in one of the area’s best Halloween neighborhoods! For the first time ever, 48 Westgate Rd is available. This remarkable one-owner home has been meticulously cared for by the same family since it was built brand new in 1956. Featuring 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, it offers an exceptional blend of timeless character, nostalgia, and incredible upside. The original 1956 layout features a solid floor plan with a hidden treasure: original hardwood floors preserved under the carpet, just waiting to be uncovered and refinished. In 1964, a spacious addition was seamlessly integrated, expanding the footprint to deliver the extra functional living space that modern buyers crave. Situated in the highly desirable and vibrant 28806 zip code, this home sits on a peaceful residential street with off-street parking for three cars (garage, carport, and one open space). Just a short walk to Haywood Road, while remaining only minutes from local hotspots, transit, and eclectic dining. Whether you want to preserve its authentic mid-century charm or update it with a modern twist, this blank canvas is ready for its next chapter.
