About This Home
Exquisitely maintained Oakley neighborhood gem, offering all the conveniences of an Asheville address, with NO CITY TAXES! Perfectly sized for comfort, efficiency, and everyday living, this home is ideally located just steps from local favorites like Gladheart Farmers Market, Oakley Library, and Oakley Park, and only minutes to Biltmore Village, Mission Hospital & Downtown Asheville.

Certified Energy Star rated, featuring thermal windows, the home is designed for year-round efficiency with a dual-zoned HVAC system, including a new furnace (2021) and new A/C (2025), natural gas powered hot water heater.
Inside, you’ll find a tastefully updated kitchen with stone countertops, wine rack and cabinet fronted dishwasher. An open-concept floor plan is highlighted by arched passthroughs a cozy wood-burning fireplace, ample windows to bring in natural light adorned with custom fitted blinds. Hardwood floors throughout the main level plus three full bathrooms and plentiful closet space. The home truly shines outdoors, offering multiple inviting living spaces—a charming wrap-around covered front porch, lush grassy front yard, a private fenced courtyard-style patio just off the kitchen, and a flagstone patio tucked into a serene grove of trees. Professional rock work and landscaping elevate these outdoor areas, while a retaining wall and concrete parking pad added in 2023 provide ample off-street parking.
