This lovely farmhouse will transport you back in time to a simpler era when families gathered around the table together. "Pass the biscuits, please..." The farmhouse has been expertly restored retaining just the right elements that harken back to yesteryear, but with all of the modern convenances desired today. Light floods the home through the large windows. There are multiple rooms on the main level that invite conversation and relaxation. The floors despite being charmingly historic, are level and sound. The large bedrooms are tucked up a wide wooden staircase. You will almost feel like calling out, "Goodnight John Boy!" before you drift off to sleep in your beautiful mountain farmhouse! There is a lovely courtyard with a fire pit, and the seasonal plantings are gorgeous, with too many blooms to count! The grounds are ideal for growing vegetables, or tending to chickens. With over eleven acres of land, you will have room to get a goat or two, or really, whatever farm animal strikes your fancy! Perhaps a donkey, or a pet piglet? Multigenerational living is possible due to the complete apartment above the expansive garage, giving family members their own space to reside. Perhaps you could use that space as a short-term rental, caretaker housing, or live there and make the main house a farm store? Homeschool here, or perhaps start a nature school? The property is a homesteader's DREAM! The permissive zoning makes this property idea for multiple scenarios. The location could not be more ideal, on a charming country road, but only 20 minutes from Downtown Asheville and about 10 min from grocery and pharmacy. This property is what dreams are made of!
