Beautifully updated Asheville bungalow on a spacious lot, just a short stroll to UNCA and all the conveniences of Merrimon Avenue! This move-in-ready home offers smart flexibility—live upstairs and rent the lower level, create an in-law suite, or enjoy the whole space as a single home. Two driveways provide abundant off-street parking and easy access to both the upper and lower levels. From the charming stone walkway, step onto the covered front porch and into the bright living room featuring original hardwood floors. The main level offers a smooth flow with a dedicated dining room under a vaulted ceiling, an efficient kitchen that opens to a large back deck ideal for entertaining, plus two well-sized bedrooms, an updated full bath, and a convenient laundry closet. The lower level is accessible from interior stairs or a private exterior entrance—perfect for guests or rental potential. A covered concrete patio leads inside to a kitchenette and comfortable living/dining area, along with a bedroom with proper window and closet. A renovated full bath with tiled shower, second laundry area, and an additional flex room with closet complete the space. The private, fenced portion of the backyard is great for pets or play, and the additional yard beyond offers room for a shed—or explore the possibility of adding a future guest cottage. Whether you’re seeking a primary residence with room to grow, a home with supplemental income options, or a true duplex-style investment, this versatile property delivers it all in one of Asheville’s most walkable locations.
