Property Description
Welcome to this beautiful estate, set over 550 feet off the road on 1.99 private acres with sweeping mountain views from both the front porch and rear patios. This single-story 3 bedroom, 2 bath home (with an option for a 4th bedroom) offers approximately 2,661 square feet of living space with two inviting living areas, a formal dining room, and a sunroom filled with natural light. The main living room—once part of a historic 1938 schoolhouse—centers around a striking stone wood-burning fireplace, complemented by a second electric fireplace for cozy ambiance. From sunrise at the back of the home to sunset at the front, natural light fills the interior throughout the day. Inside you'll also find hardwood and tile floors, custom cabinetry and backsplash, tankless hot water heaters, and abundant storage. The owner's suite opens through double French doors to a private patio, while the ensuite bath boasts a Roman walk-in shower with gorgeous tile work. All appliances convey, including the refrigerator, washer, and dryer. The main house features durable Hardiboard siding, while the guest cottage is finished in stone and stucco, adding charm and character. Outdoor living is designed for enjoyment with a front and side deck crafted of low-maintenance Trex decking, a rear patio with picnic area, and beautifully landscaped grounds featuring extensive flower beds, fruit and fig trees, and an available water well for gardening. All exterior doors are equipped with steel storm doors for security and protection. The property is fully fenced and gated for privacy and peace of mind. A circular driveway leads to a detached 2-car garage with a large workshop and an attached potting shed—perfect for gardening enthusiasts. Out back, a charming 1 bedroom, 1 bath guest cottage provides incredible versatility. With tongue-and-groove ceilings, skylights, kitchenette, dining area, shower bath, and a spacious screened porch overlooking the manicured yard, this cottage could serve as private guest quarters—or generate income as an Airbnb/short-term rental thanks to the property's highly desirable location near Hendersonville and Asheville. The property's infrastructure has been carefully maintained, including a custom septic system and complete replacement of wiring and plumbing in 2010. A whole-house generator (still under warranty) and a security system provide additional peace of mind and modern convenience. The location is ideal, with Hendersonville and Asheville both drawing thousands of visitors each year for their historic downtowns, vibrant dining scenes, outdoor adventures, wineries, breweries, festivals, and the nearby Blue Ridge Parkway. Just 3 miles to I-26 and under 10 minutes to downtown Hendersonville or the Asheville Regional Airport, this property offers a perfect blend of history, privacy, comfort, income potential, and mountain living.
