About this home

A major round of brand-new September 2026 upgrades has transformed this South Asheville home with a more open layout, updated finishes, and added comfort throughout—bringing even more value, style, and everyday livability. The family room is now open to the kitchen, creating a brighter, more connected main-level living space. New oak hardwood flooring has been added in key areas, including the main-level primary bedroom, while the upstairs features new oak hardwoods and pet-friendly Stainmaster carpet. Both upstairs bathrooms were also fully renovated with new Kohler fixtures, vanities, and countertops. These recent improvements build on an already thoughtfully updated home with generous living spaces and an exceptional outdoor retreat. A light-filled formal living room offers an elegant gathering space, while the family room features vaulted ceilings and a gas-log fireplace. The updated kitchen is centered around a large island with breakfast bar and is complemented by an eat-in area and dedicated dining room. The main-level primary suite includes Hunter Douglas window coverings and an ensuite bath with soaking tub and tile shower. Upstairs are three additional bedrooms, including two connected by a Jack-and-Jill bath, plus a hall bathroom and versatile bonus room. Outside, the expansive composite deck features cable railings with integrated lighting and overlooks the large, level backyard. A stamped concrete patio surrounds an included 8-person hot tub, while a natural gas grill connection, included grill, and outdoor TV create an ideal entertaining space. Mature landscaping, a garden shed, and underground invisible dog fence add functionality. Additional improvements include a new roof, interior and exterior paint, updated HVAC systems, kitchen renovation, and extensive deck and patio upgrades. Conveniently located in South Asheville, this home combines fresh updates, flexible living space, and exceptional indoor-outdoor living.
