Discover the perfect blend of historic charm, character, and modern convenience in this adorable 100-year-old bungalow. Ideally located on a corner lot just minutes from downtown Asheville, this lovingly maintained home offers inviting living spaces, thoughtful updates, and a unique bonus structure ideal for a dojo, creative studio, workshop, or potential second dwelling.
Step inside to find warm hardwood floors, classic bungalow details, and a light-filled layout that lives easy. The main level features 2 bedrooms and 1.5 baths, a cozy living/dining flow, and an efficient kitchen equipped with a gas range, gas oven, and dishwasher. Original charm is complemented by functional upgrades such as vinyl plank and tile flooring, storm doors, and window treatments throughout.
Enjoy the convenience of a main-level laundry room, ample storage, and a circular gravel driveway with easy in-and-out access. Outside, the property shines with spaces designed for both relaxation and creativity—picture peaceful mornings on the covered porch, evenings around the fire pit, or refreshing in the outdoor shower after a day exploring Asheville or playing in Taylor's Wave- a world-class river wave for kayakers/surfers. [Target for completion is Spring 2026]
The real gem is the separate 317 sqft outbuilding with a ductless mini split system as well as radiant heated floors. Currently outfitted as a dojo/workshop, but offers endless possibilities: home office, art studio, guest space, or personal gym (buyer to verify).
