About this home

Full of mid-century charm and thoughtful updates, this one-level home in Wilshire Park offers an easy, inviting lifestyle in one of West Asheville’s most convenient locations. Just a short stroll to everyday essentials, local eateries, and the energy of Haywood Road in West Asheville, this home blends character, comfort, and connection.

Inside, original details like hardwood floors, crown molding, and vintage doors with classic hardware create a sense of warmth and authenticity. Built-ins add both charm and functionality, including a dedicated office space that makes working from home feel seamless and inspiring. The updated kitchen brings a modern touch, featuring Kraftmaid cabinetry, quartz countertops, a stone backsplash, open shelving, and newer appliances—perfectly positioned to flow into the dining area for easy everyday living and gathering.

The primary suite is filled with natural light and offers the added comfort of a private en suite bath—creating a quiet retreat at the end of the day. With everything on one level, including laundry, the home lives simply and efficiently.

Step outside and you’ll find where this property truly shines. Designed for both relaxation and entertaining, the outdoor spaces offer something for every moment—morning coffee on the covered front or back porches, afternoons spent by the garden beds, and evenings grilling + dining al fresco in the converted carport. The fully fenced backyard is spacious and thoughtfully landscaped, with mature flowers, bushes, and dedicated garden areas ready for herbs and vegetables.

Adding even more versatility, the property includes multiple outbuildings, highlighted by a 12x20 workshop/craft studio with electricity—an ideal bonus space for creative projects, a home office, or private retreat. A separate shed adds extra convenience and storage.

With a newer roof and heat pump (both just 3 years old), and access to the neighborhood greenway, this home offers a rare blend of character, functionality, and outdoor living—all in a location that makes daily life feel effortless!

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.
