Opportunities like this don’t come along often in Candler. Set on a level half-acre in the heart of Hominy Valley, 98 Lower Glady Fork Road is a true value-add property for investors, renovators, or vision-driven buyers looking to unlock serious upside.
Originally a 1930s bungalow, this home has evolved over time, most notably with the addition of a large great room that opens the door to multiple reconfiguration options. With a full rehab, the layout lends itself well to conversion into a duplex or multi-unit setup—think a spacious efficiency or loft-style unit paired with a separate 3+ bedroom residence. The bones are here; it’s ready for someone to reimagine it.
The setting only strengthens the case. The property sits level and usable, a rare find in this area, and is convenient to the Blue Ridge Parkway, Mt. Pisgah, Candler, West Asheville, and Canton—locations that consistently support strong rental demand and long-term appreciation.
This is not a cosmetic project. It’s a from-the-studs-up opportunity for the buyer who understands how to create value through thoughtful renovation and strategic design. Whether your end goal is income production, resale, or a creative live-work setup, this property offers the flexibility and location to make it happen.
If you’re looking for turnkey, this isn’t it.
If you’re looking for potential, position, and upside—this one deserves a closer look.
