About this home

Tucked within a mature treetop canopy, 283 Blake Drive offers the feeling of private mountain living with the convenience of quick city access. Elevated above neighboring homes and accessed by a striking staircase reminiscent of a sophisticated treehouse retreat, this site-built Craftsman delivers a rare sense of seclusion just minutes from I-40 and an easy 20-minute drive to downtown Asheville. Inside, the open-concept design features rich hardwood floors, architectural trim, vaulted ceilings, oversized doublehung tilt-in windows, and a stacked-stone gas fireplace that anchors the living space with warmth and character. The kitchen is appointed with custom wood cabinetry and brand-new Samsung appliances, blending functionality with timeless mountain style. This thoughtfully designed home offers 2 bedrooms and 2.5 baths, with both bedrooms featuring private ensuite baths and generous walk-in closets. The expansive primary suite includes a sun-filled flex space ideal for a home office, reading nook, or creative studio with seasonal mountain views. Outdoor living is equally inviting with front and rear wood decks that immerse you in nature from sunrise to sunset. The gently sloping 0.69-acre lot offers room to create your dream firepit or outdoor gathering space beneath the stars. An oversized detached two-car garage provides exceptional storage and workshop potential. Located less than 5 minutes to I-40 and approximately 30 minutes to Asheville Regional Airport, this property is the perfect blend of mountain serenity, everyday convenience, and lasting value.
