Property Description
Move right into this inviting home at 73 Fair Oaks Road, ideally located just minutes from the Cane Creek Greenway, Asheville Regional Airport, the shopping and dining corridor of Hendersonville Rd, and the area's top-rated schools. Either 15 minutes to downtown Asheville or 15 minutes to Hendersonville. Buncombe County taxes only—no city taxes. Recent improvements include a new roof, 6-inch gutters, and HVAC system (2026), providing added value and peace of mind. The living room features painted wood-paneled walls, a cozy wood-burning fireplace, and a custom built-in dinette. The kitchen opens to the large back deck, making outdoor grilling and entertaining a breeze, while the screened porch overlooks the fenced front yard with established landscaping, offering a little privacy but plenty of light. Bedrooms, bath, and laundry are conveniently on the main level. Need extra space? The approximately 150-square-foot walk-up attic offers endless possibilities as additional storage, meditation/yoga studio, or hobby room. One of the home's features is the 870-square-foot walk-out basement with interior access, 220-volt electrical service, lighting, and abundant workspace. Whether you're a woodworker, artist, craftsperson, or simply need room for bikes, kayaks, and outdoor gear, this flexible space is ready for your vision. A wrap-around driveway provides ample parking and easy basement access, while the covered carport offers a shaded gathering spot or convenient covered entry during inclement weather. This move-in-ready home offers the perfect combination of charm, functionality, and an unbeatable South location. Read more about Arden in the listing documentation. Home can come furnished.
