Discover the perfect blend of peaceful living and city convenience in this charming raised ranch just minutes from the vibrant restaurants, breweries, shopping, and entertainment of West Asheville's popular Haywood Road. Tucked away in a quiet neighborhood on a generous 0.52-acre lot, this inviting 2-bedroom, 1.5-bath home offers room to relax, garden, and grow. A covered front porch welcomes you home and overlooks the spacious, level front yard. Inside, the bright living room features a large picture window and a stylish painted brick and wood accent wall that adds warmth and character. The open dining area flows seamlessly through French doors to an expansive covered back porch—an ideal spot for morning coffee, outdoor dining, or simply unwinding while overlooking the backyard. The spacious galley kitchen is equipped with stainless steel appliances, a pantry, and a cozy breakfast nook for casual meals. Down the hall, you'll find two comfortable bedrooms, including a primary bedroom with a convenient half-bath ensuite, along with a full hall bathroom. Luxury vinyl plank flooring runs throughout the main level, and a brand-new heat pump provides year-round comfort. The lower level offers an additional 218 square feet of heated and cooled bonus space (not included in the home's total heated square footage), making it perfect for a home office, fitness room, hobby space, or creative studio. The basement also includes laundry hookups, abundant storage, and a one-car garage. Outside, the half-acre lot provides plenty of room for gardening, pets, and play, while a prime location at the end of the driveway offers excellent potential for a future detached garage, workshop, or artist's studio. If you've been searching for a home that combines space, flexibility, and an unbeatable West Asheville location, this one is ready to welcome you home.
