About this home
Breathtaking mountain vistas from nearly every room — welcome to 65 Lawson Ridge, a beautifully maintained Cape Cod retreat nestled in a peaceful country setting just 10 miles from downtown Asheville.
Set on a private, oversized 0.99-acre lot in the tranquil Lawson Ridge community, this exceptional home captures approximately 280-degree year-round Blue Ridge Mountain views. Thoughtfully updated and meticulously cared for, the home offers the perfect balance of comfort, functionality, and scenic beauty.
Recent improvements include a new roof and skylight (2025), two newer heat pumps (2021), and a full suite of kitchen appliances (2024), providing peace of mind and modern convenience.
Designed for both everyday living and effortless entertaining, the main level features a welcoming two-story vaulted foyer, abundant natural light, and a flowing floor plan. The spacious family room with vaulted ceilings and a gas fireplace creates a warm and inviting atmosphere, while the formal dining room and open kitchen offer generous gathering spaces for family and friends. The kitchen showcases a stylish shiplap island, breakfast nook, stainless steel appliances, and updated finishes.
Outdoor living is equally inviting. Enjoy your morning coffee on the south-facing covered front porch as the sun rises over the mountains, or host summer evenings on the partially covered back deck overlooking the level, fenced backyard. A firepit area provides the perfect setting for cool mountain nights under the stars.
Upstairs, all bedrooms are privately situated, including the oversized primary suite featuring sweeping mountain views, a walk-in closet, and a spacious ensuite bath complete with double vanities, soaking tub, and a walk-in shower with dual shower heads for a spa-like experience. Two additional guest bedrooms — one with long-range mountain views — and a dedicated second-floor laundry room add comfort and convenience.

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.
