Mountain views, the Blue Ridge Parkway close by, and downtown Asheville only minutes away: 23 Wagon Road brings the best of East Asheville together in a classic brick ranch on a level, tree-lined lot. Wide streets and mature hardwoods set the tone in this established neighborhood, where the VA Medical Center, grocery stores, local coffee shops and restaurants are all nearby, and Tunnel Road and Interstate 240 make getting around town easy. The home offers comfortable one-level living with a few welcome surprises. A deep covered front porch with gently ramped access takes in year-round mountain views, an easy place to start the morning or wind down in the evening. Inside, fresh paint throughout gives the three-bedroom, two-bath floor plan a bright, move-in-ready feel. The spacious living room, anchored by a fireplace, opens to the dining area and kitchen, where stainless steel appliances include a new refrigerator, with generous cabinet and counter space for everyday cooking. At the back of the house, a light-filled, step-down den with a vaulted ceiling and windows on three sides opens directly to the concrete patio. It works equally well as a home office, playroom or second living area, with the level backyard just outside for gardening, grilling, play or quiet evenings under the trees. The primary bedroom has its own private bath with a shower, and a second full bath with a tub serves the remaining two bedrooms, one of which features built-in shelving. A large laundry room with cabinetry and a separate entrance to the parking area keeps groceries, gear and muddy boots out of the main living spaces. Whether you are relocating to Western North Carolina, downsizing to a single-level home or buying your first house in Asheville, 23 Wagon Road pairs a level yard and mountain views with an East Asheville address that keeps the city, the Parkway and everyday errands close at hand.
