New price in the popular Malvern Hills neighborhood! The first time offered for sale in over 40 years, this home and the property it sits on, is just such a WOW! Enjoy the expansive living room, large bedrooms, attractive archways, gorgeous fireplace and private upstairs retreat. There is just so much possibility! It wouldn't take much to make this gem a stunner! The home is perched on a 1.04 acre double, corner lot, on what may just be the best hilltop in the neighborhood! Enter on School Road and exit in Clarendon Road via the long, paved, rock wall lined drive. Enjoy peaceful, nature forward living amongst majestic oaks, squirrels frolicking, birds singing, deer wandering by, and holly trees heavy with berries, all while enjoying all of the City of Asheville amenities and convenience. Near West Asheville's funky shops and eateries, and Downtown Asheville is just a few miles away. What a great option in 28806!
