About this home
Tucked away at the end of a quiet dead-end road, 5 Hillcrest Road offers a rare sense of privacy and connection to nature in the heart of North Asheville. Set on .57 acres, this inviting mountain home is designed to embrace its surroundings, with beautiful views, abundant natural light, and multiple outdoor living spaces that make the landscape part of everyday life. The open main level is framed by dramatic floor-to-ceiling windows in the living and dining areas, filling the home with light and capturing the lush scenery beyond. A spacious kitchen with granite countertops and a gas fireplace creates a warm gathering place, while an expansive screened porch, generous decks, and peaceful patios offer exceptional spaces for dining, entertaining, or simply enjoying the mountain setting. Upstairs, three bedrooms feature large windows and direct access to outdoor living areas, creating private retreats immersed in the surrounding beauty. The walk-out lower level adds remarkable versatility with a separate apartment plus a spacious family room with fireplace—ideal for extended family, guests, a private work-from-home suite, or potential rental income. Private and peaceful, yet remarkably convenient, the home is just minutes from Beaver Lake and its walking trails, everyday shopping and dining, and the vibrant restaurants, galleries, and cultural attractions of downtown Asheville. Downtown Weaverville is also within easy reach, offering the best of North Asheville living with both nature and convenience close at hand.
