Description
Built in 1925 during Asheville’s Arts & Crafts boom, this bungalow reflects a movement rooted in simplicity, craftsmanship, and connection to nature. Many homes of this era followed a story-and-a-half design—compact yet efficient, with thoughtful use of space and rich architectural detail. This home retains key original features: five-panel doors, heart pine floors, plaster walls, picture rails, and tall ceilings, all largely untouched by modern overhauls. While it will need updates, its beauty lies in what hasn’t been altered. The finished attic, not counted in heated SF due to ceiling height, offers two bonus rooms and a half bath. Practical upgrades like an architectural roof, central cooling, and encapsulated basement are already done. A second lot behind the home is included in this offering, addressed on Academy offers great future flexibility, but the true value lies in this home’s authenticity—a rare survivor of Asheville’s handcrafted past.
