A rare combination of space, setting and thoughtful renovation, this exceptional Arden residence offers more than 4,700 square feet of beautifully updated living space on an expansive, level property with frontage along the river. Inside, the home balances contemporary finishes with architectural character. The main living spaces are bright and open, highlighted by soaring beamed ceilings, abundant natural light and a beautifully renovated kitchen designed as a true centerpiece of the home. Custom cabinetry, an oversized island and a professional-style 48-inch Forno range create a space equally suited for everyday living and large-scale entertaining. Generous living and dining areas extend from the kitchen, while multiple access points connect the interior to the home's outdoor spaces. The primary suite offers impressive proportions, vaulted ceilings and direct access to the outdoors, while the home's additional bedrooms and updated baths provide flexibility for family and guests. Throughout the residence, wide-plank flooring, extensive renovations and carefully selected finishes create a cohesive, sophisticated aesthetic. The finished basement dramatically expands the home's possibilities. Designed as a true second living quarters, it features an eat-in kitchen, spacious family room, recreation area, bedroom and additional sleeping space, making it exceptionally well suited for extended family, guests, multigenerational living or a private secondary living arrangement. Outside, the property becomes equally compelling. An expansive, level lawn stretches toward the river, framed by mature trees and providing a sense of openness increasingly difficult to find in South Asheville. Multiple outdoor living areas invite gatherings throughout the seasons, while the detached garage provides valuable additional parking, workshop or storage space. A Generac generator and whole-home dehumidifier add another layer of comfort and preparedness. Despite its peaceful setting, the property remains remarkably connected to the best of the area. Glenn Bridge River Park, Sierra Nevada Brewing Co., Asheville Regional Airport, Airport Road and Biltmore Park are all within convenient reach, placing dining, shopping, recreation and travel close at hand while preserving the space and privacy of a much larger property. River frontage. More than 4,700 square feet. Second living quarters. Expansive level grounds. Exceptional renovations and a location at the center of everything South Asheville has to offer - this is a property designed not simply around square footage, but around the freedom to live, gather and entertain on a larger scale.

Some properties offer a place to build. This one offers a setting worth building around. Lot 10R, known as The Woodland, is tucked at the end of Sunnybrook Drive in Asheville. This 1.185-acre wooded riverfront homesite offers approximately 159 feet of frontage along the Swannanoa River. A mature hardwood canopy and wooded boundary create an uncommon sense of privacy. Walk beneath the trees toward the river and the appeal is immediate—the sound of moving water, filtered light through the hardwoods, and a landscape that already feels established. The setting feels removed, yet the property is conveniently located for enjoying both Asheville and Black Mountain. It is a rare combination: meaningful Swannanoa River frontage, river views, and a natural wooded setting without giving up convenient access to the restaurants, culture, and everyday amenities of Western North Carolina. Much of the uncertainty that can come with buying mountain land has already been addressed. The property has an approved 4-bedroom septic permit, verified city water availability, and buildable area outside the mapped floodplain. There is no HOA, with limited deed restrictions intended to protect the character of the property. The house can be designed. The land cannot be recreated.

It's a legacy. Welcome to Paddy Cove Farm, ±108 acres of Blue Ridge Mountain paradise spread across two adjacent parcels just 20 minutes north of downtown Asheville. This is the rare offering where flat, usable pastures meet rolling hills and long-range mountain views in every direction, a canvas ready for a private family compound, working farm, wellness retreat, event venue, or luxury mountain escape. Cross the private bridge and gated entrance and the land unfolds: open meadows, wooded ridgelines, multiple natural springs, mature apple trees and weeping willows, and a stunning spring-fed stocked pond complete with dock. The kind of setting people spend a lifetime searching for. Two site-built homes anchor the estate. 1370 Barnardsville Hwy is a beautifully rebuilt and restored 3-bedroom, 2-bath ranch (2,354 SF) with a fresh, modern kitchen, private back patio, and a mountain backdrop. 1372 Barnardsville Hwy is a custom-built 2008 home (2,314 SF, 2 bed / 2.5 bath plus office) featuring vaulted ceilings, an open floor plan, granite kitchen, wood-burning fireplace, 2-car attached garage, and a covered deck made for taking in the views. The opportunity doesn't stop at the homes. A ±10,000 SF multi-use commercial building, formerly home to an outdoor equipment business, offers commercial HVAC, kitchen, office and bath up front, with wide-open bays for workshop, storage, or operations. Add working barns, a pole barn, farm outbuildings, road frontage on Barnardsville Highway, and an income-producing cell tower lease, and you have a property that works as hard as it inspires. Open Use zoning on both parcels means flexibility. Approximately 35 minutes to Asheville Regional Airport, all on a state-maintained highway. Properties of this scale, beauty, and versatility simply do not come to market. Come see Paddy Cove Farm and imagine what's possible.

Ideally situated with direct frontage from both Interstate 40 and US HWY 70, this +/- 48 acre site lies within the picturesque Town of Black Mountain. Located at the future I-40 and Blue Ridge Road interchange, a planned and fully funded NCDOT project (# I-4409), the site is poised to benefit from improved regional access, freight mobility, and overall visibility. It is zoned Light Industrial (Black Mountain), which permits an array of suitable uses, creating a range of development opportunities. This light industrial, large acreage site will derive significant value from the new I-40 interchange; making this one of East Buncombe’s most compelling investments for logistics, medical, manufacturing, industrial, campus style development, flex development, and more. Areas influenced by floodplain can be used strategically to enhance the development program. This site has the opportunity to establish value from environmentally integrated design that leverages flood-area preservation through: riparian conservation, natural stream buffering, constructed wetlands, stream restoration partnerships, water-quality enhancement zones, multi-use trail segments, Park (Private or Public), and nature corridor tie-ins. The site is located adjacent to an established Greenway (1.3 miles to downtown) and Veterans Park.

Look Close! This 10.063 acres across seven parcels held under multiple entity ownerships offers the potential for acquisition and redevelopment for multifamily use– affordable, work force, market rate, LIHTC– you decide. Singularly, each ownership segment presents challenges relative to: FEMA’s 50% rule, slope, floodplain and floodway ordinances. Combined, with calculated thought, the door to opportunity is opened for multifamily redevelopment by shifting proposed buildout to the middle of all the conjoined land & taking advantage of the UP, RM8 & RIV zoning (or conditional use rezoning) blending all land tracts under a single use concept! Combined, some development hurdles are potentially mitigated. Resources, grants and low interest loans are potentially available to make this post disaster land opp the rising phoenix! Buyer to conduct all due diligence; by appointment only, buildings occupied– do NOT ride on property; agent must accompany!
