About this home

Charming Historic 1929 Farm-Style Home in Desirable Pleasant Gardens Step back in time with this beautiful 1.5-story farm-style home built in 1929—one of the oldest and most character-rich properties in the sought-after Pleasant Gardens community. Gracefully set along historic US Highway 70 (once a stagecoach route with a stop directly across the road), this timeless residence offers a rare blend of vintage charm and convenient modern access. The inviting wrap-around porch spans three full sides of the house, providing generous outdoor living space perfect for rocking chairs, morning coffee, or watching the world go by while enjoying peaceful rural views. Inside, the main level features a cozy living room, country kitchen, convenient laundry room, and utility room—along with 2 bedrooms and 1 full bathroom for comfortable one-level living if desired. Upstairs, the second floor offers 3 additional bedrooms and another full bathroom, ideal for family, guests, or flexible use as offices or hobby rooms. Located in the heart of Pleasant Gardens, this historic gem predates most homes in the area and exudes the authentic character of early 20th-century mountain living—all while being less than an hour from the vibrant culture, dining, and amenities of downtown Asheville. Whether you're seeking a primary residence steeped in history, a weekend retreat, or a restoration project with incredible potential, this 1929 treasure is a rare find. Don’t miss your chance to own a piece of McDowell County heritage.

A rough rule — actual qualification depends on your full debt picture, credit, and the lender. John can introduce you to lenders he trusts.

Numbers are a directional estimate. Actual monthly cost varies by lender, credit, taxes assessed at closing, and insurance carrier. This is not a loan offer or pre-approval.
