2300 square feet 3 bedroom 2.5 bath home in the Buckeye Cove area of Swannanoa. Home is on 4.7 wooded acres with excellent privacy. Nice views and beautiful sunsets. Lot adjoins nature preserve. Although the last mile is on a gravel road, the location is very convenient. Groceries, restaurants, highway 70, and I 40 are all within 3 miles. Asheville and Black Mountain are under 15 minutes away.
The house is filled with windows and light. It incorporates passive solar design and is very energy efficient. The upstairs features a great room with a wood ceiling and beams. Kitchen is open to the dining area of the great room. Great room has Jotul gas stove/fireplace.
Great room and kitchen have tile floor. Master bedroom is also on main floor and has heartpine flooring and 2 walk in closets. Extra storage or sleeping in the 10’ X 16’ loft that overlooks the living area. Deck across the entire south and west sides of the main floor. Downstairs there are laundry, 2 bedrooms, 1 full bath, and a large workshop area. The lower level also has a deck across the entire south side. The bedrooms and workshop all have outside entrances. There is a drive that leads to the lower level. The workshop area is heated, but not finished for living. The workshop also has a wood furnace that has its own blower and is connected to the central duct system. The entire house has central heat/air (heat pump).
The house is currently being offered as is with no fees or sales commission paid by owner. There are several things I was planning to do to spruce up the house for sale. I was then planning to list it with a realtor. I am offering it at a lower price so I don’t have to do any fixing or pay a realtor. This is a limited time offer before I proceed in a different manner.
If you are a nature lover who is looking for something different than the 3/2 on a ¼ acre lot where your neighbor can look in your windows, this house could be for you. Private and wooded with nice views and bordering a nature preserve, yet a convenient and close location.
I will set up showings for sincerely interested and qualified buyers. I am now living in a location with no cell service. Please text “house” and your name and number to 828-768-8411. I will call you back to answer questions or arrange a showing. I do not get voicemail so leaving a message will not work.
