About This Home

As of April 2026

Welcome to the kind of home Asheville buyers are searching for—full of charm, natural light, and an incredibly convenient location. Situated just outside the city limits in Candler, this adorable cottage offers easy access to all the restaurants, breweries, and shopping of West Asheville while remaining just minutes from I-40 and the Buncombe County Sports Complex. From the moment you arrive, the home’s curb appeal stands out with mature trees, a paved private driveway, and a fenced yard—perfect for pets, gardening, or enjoying outdoor mountain living. The setting offers both privacy and convenience, something buyers rarely find this close to town. Inside, the home is bright and welcoming with abundant windows that fill the space with natural light. Character details make this home truly special, including charming wainscoting in the foyer and a built-in Murphy bed that adds both style and functionality—ideal for guests or flexible living. The home features two bedrooms plus a finished loft area with lower ceilings. An additional bonus: the property is served by a three-bedroom septic system, offering future potential.
