Description
Tucked away on a quiet street in Oakley, just minutes from Biltmore Village and downtown Asheville, this thoughtfully reimagined 100-year-old bungalow blends historic charm with a distinctly modern, design-forward aesthetic. The home features a dramatic open layout with a soaring 12’ vaulted ceiling, creating an expansive feel rarely found in homes this size. The interior is inspired by mid-century modern and Art Deco influences, with warm antique brass accents and high-end light fixtures throughout. Original Red Oak hardwood floors, stained a rich walnut tone, run through much of the home and add warmth and character. The kitchen is a true centerpiece featuring semi-custom cabinetry, granite countertops, a striking waterfall island, and a custom corner pantry featuring a unique lazy susan with full extension wood drawers. Elevated lighting and refined finishes give the space an elevated, designer-quality feel that stands out from typical renovations. The home offers two versatile bedrooms and large closets, including a large primary bedroom and a comfortable second bedroom that easily accommodates a bed and desk, ideal for a guest room, child’s room, or stylish home office. The bathroom features a custom solid-wood vanity, marble top and art deco lighting with a high-end brass faucet. The flexible rear addition is filled with natural light from two large windows and finished with new LVP flooring. This bright, sunlit space is perfect as an office, mudroom, or creative studio. Outside, the 0.41 ac property features a flat and shady lawn with exceptional privacy, a fire pit area, and mature landscaping featuring Blackberries, Raspberries, Serviceberry, and Passion fruit plants. A flowering shade garden, and a sunny pollinator garden complete the urban oasis feel. The back of the property contains an additional lot with mountain views, perfect for building an additional home, an ADU/guesthouse, or more gardening and outdoor living space. Additional highlights include a welcoming front porch, a garden shed, and ample crawl space storage. On top of all that, proximity to Asheville’s newest outdoor music venue, Hellbender, the long-awaited new All Day Darling location, Burial Forestry Camp, and all that Biltmore Village offers, makes this property a must see!
