Monthly Estimate* How much can I afford?

Completely reimagined from the studs out, this beautifully renovated home offers the perfect blend of modern comfort, thoughtful updates, and an exciting location in the heart of Swannanoa. Originally configured as a duplex, the home was transformed during a comprehensive 2022 renovation into a spacious 3-bedroom, 2-bath single-family residence featuring 1,334 square feet of open-concept living. Virtually every major component has been updated, including new plumbing, electrical, HVAC, spray foam insulation, crawl space insulation with vapor barrier, drywall, interior and exterior paint, fixtures, appliances, window blinds, and select replacement windows. The original hardwood floors have been beautifully refinished, while luxury vinyl plank flooring was installed in the kitchen, laundry room, and bathrooms, with new carpet in the primary bedroom and newly created walk-in closet. The stylish kitchen features new cabinetry, stone countertops, and stainless appliances, while both bathrooms have been completely refreshed with new vanities, toilets, tile backsplashes, and tub/shower surrounds. Outside, you'll appreciate the updated front porch with new deck boards, new front and rear doors, off-street parking for 2-3 vehicles, and a private backyard complete with an 8-foot privacy fence, newly planted Green Giant privacy trees, and a Honeycrisp apple tree that's expected to begin producing fruit soon with help from a nearby crabapple pollinator. For added peace of mind, the home sustained no flooding or structural damage during Hurricane Helene, with only minor fence damage from a fallen tree in the rear corner of the property. Location is another standout feature. Just minutes from the exciting new Beacon Park and Beacon Bike Park development, scheduled to open in Fall 2026, you'll enjoy access to future community green spaces, a walking track, playground, pavilions, a world-class bike park, bouldering walls, and an event lawn. The neighborhood is already experiencing exciting growth, with coffee shops, a hardware store, grocery store, and new restaurants all just minutes away. Conveniently located only 15 minutes to downtown Asheville and 7 minutes to Black Mountain, this move-in-ready home offers the perfect combination of quality, convenience, and long-term value.
