This charming 2,192 sq ft farmhouse was built in 1906, and is a fine example of Craftsman-style construction from the period. The property features original hardwood flooring throughout most of the home, with tile flooring in the kitchen and downstairs bathroom. A brand new roof for the home was installed in October 2010 and features architectural shingles. The home has an oil furnace, a natural gas water heater and an energy efficient wood pellet stove as an alternative and environmentally friendly heating option. The home also has large windows in all the rooms for plenty of natural light and two large porches on the front and back sides of the house.

The home sits on a beautiful 8,300 square foot lot with a fenced back yard. A well maintained empty lot to the right of the property and a churchyard to the rear of the lot give the home a feeling of privacy and seclusion in the heart of West Asheville. A group of maple trees on the left side of the lot provide full shade for that side of the home in the summer, and beautiful fall colors in autumn. The backyard is shaded by two maple trees and two mature, fruit-bearing apple trees. There is a shed at the rear of the property that provides convenient storage for all of your yard care and gardening supplies. There is always plenty of space in the front of the house for street parking and there is also an easement to the back of the home that provides the option for offstreet parking if desired.

The home is located in the heart of coveted West Asheville within easy walking distance to all of West Asheville's best shops and restaurants. West Asheville was named one of the top thirty best neighborhoods in America by Men's journal in 2009 and has been voted "Best Neigborhood in Asheville" by the locals in the "Best of WNC" for seven years running. The home is part of the Enka school district and the area in general is very family friendly with frequent child-friendly events and activities and a weekly farmers market just a few blocks down the street. The property is also located just one block from the much celebrated "Sunny Point Cafe" which was voted one of the top four breakfast's in the nation by Goodmorning America. The home is also one block away from the bus line which provides convenient alternative transportation to downtown every thirty minutes. And with only a five minutue drive from the home to to downtown, you will be able to live in a community oriented neighborhood with all of downtown Asheville proper at your fingertips.
