The house
A cottage-style home in Buckeye Cove, about fifteen minutes from Asheville, arranged over three levels.
The main level opens up: living, kitchen and dining together under a vaulted ceiling of stained wood, hardwood underfoot, and a stone fireplace running floor to ceiling. A bedroom, a full bath and a separate private room are on this level too.
Upstairs is the primary suite, with the laundry and a loft sitting area, and seasonal mountain views through the trees.
The lower level is finished and stands on its own: a large recreation room, a full bath, a bonus room, and its own exterior entrance.
Outside there is a covered front porch with a custom swing, an expansive covered deck across the back, and a fully fenced yard on just over a third of an acre.

These aren't on the MLS record and I would rather leave them blank than write down a guess about your future bills. Ask and I'll send the actual paperwork.
