About this home

**RARE OPPORTUNITY IN LEICESTER!** Two well-maintained manufactured homes on approximately 2.2 private, wooded acres, offering exceptional flexibility and income potential. Tucked away on a private dead-end road with level access, this unique property combines privacy and natural beauty with convenient access to Leicester Highway and Asheville. **THE HOMES:** Two manufactured homes, a 1997 and a 1998, each measuring approximately 14' × 80' with approximately 1,100 square feet. Each home offers 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, comfortable interiors, a new heat pump, a 10' × 14' screened porch, and a rear deck. Both homes also feature carports with covered ramp entrances and doggie doors leading to private chain-link fenced dog areas. **THE PROPERTY:** Approximately 2.2 acres of private, wooded land with abundant wildlife and a beautiful year-round spring-fed branch flowing through the property. The high-producing private well reportedly produces approximately 40 gallons per minute. A permitted 1,500-gallon septic system is approved to serve both homes. Two older storage buildings provide additional space for tools, lawn equipment, and storage. **FLEXIBLE POSSIBILITIES:** With two separate homes on one parcel, this property offers a variety of options—live in one home and rent the other, accommodate extended household needs, create a multi-generational living arrangement, or explore rental/investment opportunities. The private setting and fenced pet areas add to the property's appeal. Located just minutes from Leicester Highway and a short drive to Asheville, this is a distinctive opportunity to own two homes on one parcel with dependable water, wooded privacy, natural beauty, and outstanding flexibility. **A property with this combination of features is truly hard to find!**
