A CHARMING CENTURY-OLD FARMHOUSE WITH MOUNTAIN VIEWS & COUNTRY LIVING — JUST MINUTES FROM DOWNTOWN ASHEVILLE! Imagine waking up to the beauty of the Blue Ridge Mountains, tending a sprawling garden in your sunny backyard, and savoring the peaceful feeling of country living — all while being just 10 minutes from the heart of downtown Asheville! This sweet, century-old farmhouse offers a delightful blend of timeless charm, mountain beauty, and everyday convenience, with NO CITY TAXES! Nestled in a wonderfully convenient location, this little slice of countryside feels worlds away from the hustle and bustle, yet puts so much of Asheville right at your fingertips. Walk to Reynolds School, take a short drive to Cultivated Cocktails, grab a slice of pizza, enjoy a treat at the yogurt shop, linger over coffee at a neighborhood café, or pop over to Ingles for your everyday essentials. And with the Blue Ridge Parkway practically next door, endless opportunities for scenic drives, hiking, and outdoor adventures await. There's even a beautiful route over the mountain to South Asheville, offering an alternative to the usual traffic! This darling farmhouse is ready to welcome its next chapter — and your personal vision. Freshly painted inside and out, original hardwood floors, topped with a durable metal roof, and brimming with potential, it's the perfect canvas for creating a home that feels uniquely yours. Step outside onto the spacious back deck and let the mountain views steal the show. The sunny backyard practically begs for a magnificent garden, lazy afternoons, and evenings spent soaking in the beauty of the surrounding landscape Along Rose Hill Road, towering evergreens create a lovely natural screen, adding a sense of privacy and seclusion to your outdoor haven. Picture flowers blooming, vegetables ripening in the sunshine, and the mountains providing a breathtaking backdrop to everyday life. A little farmhouse magic, a touch of mountain serenity, room to make it your own, and the best of Asheville/Fairview just around the corner. Come discover the possibilities — and fall in love with the charm of country living without giving up the convenience of town! This home would make a perfect short term rental with an Asheville address but outside the city limits...
