About This Home
As of April 2026Rare single-level living in sought-after Forest Lake, one of South Asheville’s most desirable neighborhoods. This move-in-ready home blends thoughtful updates with warm, comfortable living in a peaceful natural setting. Vaulted ceilings and skylights fill the main living area with natural light, highlighting oak hardwood floors and soft, neutral finishes. The open layout creates an inviting flow for everyday living and entertaining, while privately situated bedrooms offer separation and comfort, including a spacious primary suite with en-suite bath.
Enjoy quiet mornings in the heated sunroom or unwind on the refinished deck surrounded by mature trees and established landscaping. Beautiful flowering shrubs and well-established plantings create a serene, garden-like setting throughout the seasons. The granite breakfast bar anchors the kitchen and provides an ideal space for casual dining or gathering with friends. This home has been meticulously maintained and thoughtfully improved. Major updates include upgraded appliances, enhanced utility systems, a whole-house water filtration system, and a fully encapsulated crawl space. The two-car garage and crawl space provide excellent additional storage.
Forest Lake residents enjoy access to a community pond, playground, quiet walkable streets, and convenient access to the Mountains-to-Sea Trail, all while being just minutes from shopping, dining, and everyday conveniences. This is a fantastic opportunity to own a beautifully updated single-level home in an established South Asheville neighborhood that balances comfort, privacy, and access to nature.
