About this home

Come make this charming mountain home your own! The home sits tucked back among the trees in Ridgecrest, a private and peaceful neighborhood that's still convenient to Old 70 and I-40, just a 5 minute drive from downtown Black Mountain and a 25 minute drive from downtown Asheville. The cabin features beautiful wormy chestnut throughout, tongue and groove pine walls, wild cherry wood floors, and a large stone fireplace with wood-burning heat. The floor plan is spacious and roomy with larger closets than you'd expect from a mountain cabin built in 1945, and features storage space throughout with some cedar lined closets! The formal dining room can easily serve as a 4th bedroom with the simple addition of a door placed in the doorframe leading to the kitchen or it could stay a formal dining room as previously used. The attic offers 7-foot clearance down the center and could potentially be converted into finished heated living space for a buyer with the right vision. The tall crawlspace even has room to store a compact car behind the lower-level garage door. Mature rhododendron terraced landscaping is ready to be vibrant again with a little TLC. On Ridgecrest water which was one of the first systems to have clean drinking water restored after Helene. The neighborhood sits at a slight elevation above nearby downtown Black Mountain and the property was untouched by Helene's impacts. Come make this your very own mountain retreat! *Executor of the Estate makes no representations pertaining to the condition of the property and has never lived in the home.*
