Description
Nestled in North Asheville's Albemarle Park neighborhood, this beautifully restored Storybook cottage is the perfect balance of historic craftsmanship and modern livability. For the buyer looking to own a piece of Asheville history, this home offers a true step back in time. Architectural elements remain beautifully preserved, including original heartpine flooring, picture-rail molding, wavy-glass windows, cedar and pebbledash siding, and a front door with a working bell! The home’s thoughtful updates ensure comfort and efficiency for modern living. A generous entry leads to a gracious formal dining and living room, both with working fireplaces. The charming kitchen is adjacent to an inviting back porch for sipping morning coffee. Upstairs, you will find two large bedrooms, one with a walk-in closet. A charming nook for penning your next novel has views of greenery, and the large bathroom has a clawfoot tub. The inviting covered front porch is ideal for enjoying mountain breezes. A heated walk-out basement provides exceptional versatility with dry storage, workshop space, and a second bathroom with laundry. Recognized for its careful restoration, the home received the 2014 Griffin Award for Rehabilitation from the Asheville Historic Preservation Society and was selected for the 2026 Preservation Society Historic Home Tour. All this is just blocks to the cafés, bakeries, and restaurants of Charlotte Street, and less than a mile from the heart of downtown Asheville. No damage from Helene whatsoever - per seller. The shaggy grass is intentional. It is a special "no-mow" type of grass. **Bonus: This home is essentially a 2-bed 2-bath home - there is a FULL bath in the 746 sq ft heated basement; however, both the basement area and bathroom cannot be counted per MLS rules regarding ceiling height and finished spaces.
