About this home

Historic Asheville character, thoughtfully updated for modern in-town living. Just minutes from downtown, this renovated 1927 home pairs an open, light-filled layout with designer-directed updates, multiple work-from-home spaces, and exceptional outdoor living. At the heart of the home, the refreshed kitchen and entertaining bar feature Calacatta Gold quartzite, warm brass accents, and carefully selected lighting. Newly refinished hardwood floors extend throughout, while fresh paint creates a subtle modern palette that allows the home's original character to shine. The redesigned front living room accommodates a range of layouts. Outside, a newly constructed oversized covered front porch serves as an outdoor living room, with ample space for lounging and entertaining. The luxurious primary suite offers a spacious bath has been thoughtfully refreshed, including a new glass shower with vertically stacked tile and pebble floor—but the unexpected highlight is the shower window framing a remarkable view. There are two additional upstairs bedrooms, one occupies a bright corner with seasonal mountain views; the other opens directly to an upper-level deck overlooking downtown and the mountains. The upper sunny fenced backyard with a pebbled-concrete patio and stone retaining wall create a distinct outdoor space without the upkeep of a large suburban yard. Major recent improvements include a new roof and roof structure, new ceiling insulation, a new expanded front porch and a new upper level deck with downtown views. Significant updates were also made in 2006, including an expansion of the home where a kitchen, primary suite and rear stairwell were added, as well as extensive electrical modernization, 4 zone HVAC system and numerous other upgrades. To the rear of the home is an alley and a detached “Model T” garage for storage and off-street parking. The location brings everyday conveniences within easy reach: walk to coffee, yoga, pilates, restaurants, groceries, and neighborhood favorites, with downtown just minutes away. With multiple outdoor living spaces, mountain and downtown views, and a fresh modern sensibility within a historic home, 133 Furman offers a rare opportunity in Asheville.
