Located in West Asheville’s highly desirable Wilshire Park neighborhood, this wonderfully updated one-level cottage-style home sits on an expansive and private 0.42-acre lot. The spacious yard is fully-fenced, surrounded by beautiful mature trees, and offers an ideal setting for outdoor enjoyment as well as establised organic gardens and fruit trees. The incredibly convenient location places you less than five minutes away from the vibrant dining, entertainment, and shopping options on Haywood Road, and less than 10 minutes from Downtown Asheville and within the Asheville City Schools district. Steps from the greenway path! The home features several recent high-value updates, including a brand-new HVAC system with a reliable gas backup installed in 2019, a completely replaced water heater in 2020, and modern new kitchen appliances added in 2022. Inside, the charming 3-bedroom, 1-bathroom floor plan showcases original heart pine floors, blending historic character with modern conveniences. For practical needs, the property features a crawl space and a large outbuilding that provides ample additional storage space. Perfect as a starter home or an investment property. Additionally, there is incredible future potential to subdivide the lot (buyer to verify with local zoning regulations) and the unique opportunity to assume a low-rate VA loan, subject to the buyer qualifying.
