The key word for this cottage home is SWEET! Immaculately maintained and loved home for over 50 years by the same owner. Has nearly 2 acres of level land including mountain views! There's a large shed out back for loads of storage. Newer windows and appliances. Central HVAC. Low maintenance vinyl siding. Carport with easy kitchen access. No HOA, low property taxes. Moments away from county operated ball fields and pool. Short distance to I-40, but without the noise of the highway. In fact, it's wonderfully quiet and peaceful here. If you've been looking in Buncombe Co and can't find what you want, here is the affordable solution, just 25-30 minutes to Downtown Asheville. If you work in Marion, this is only 10-15 minutes away. Buy this one, relax out front and wave at the neighbors as they go by. Head out back in privacy and create your fire pit area. Either way, you'll be calm, cool and collected, knowing you have a sweet home that fits your budget.
