$3,641A truly rare offering, this grand 1920s brick estate is available for the first time on the MLS. Rich in architectural character and set on stately grounds, this distinguished residence presents an exceptional opportunity to restore and personalize a home of remarkable substance and enduring elegance. With 9-foot ceilings on the main level and over 2400 sf of finished space, and a 1,400 sf basement, the home offers a scale and presence seldom found today. The flexible floor plan includes five bedrooms and three full baths, with a main-level office or bedroom providing versatile living options. Original details remain beautifully preserved throughout, including solid oak doors, unpainted wood trim, original brass hardware, and hardwood floors resting beneath the existing carpet. The craftsmanship, materials, and attention to detail reflect an era when homes were built to last for generations. Topped with a slate roof known for exceptional elegance and longevity. The expansive grounds create a commanding setting, while the 700 sf detached garage offers endless possibilities as a workshop, studio, or hobby room. Beneath the home, the substantial basement provides exceptional storage and future expansion potential. Located within walking distance of vibrant West Asheville and just minutes from downtown Asheville, with Malvern Hills Park nearby, the property combines historic grandeur with one of the area's most desirable lifestyles. Opportunities of this caliber are increasingly rare. Whole-house HVAC quote already in hand; most other work believed to be cosmetic, leaving mostly design and decoration to be executed. For the discerning buyer with vision, this is a chance to steward a landmark-quality residence and transform it into a showpiece estate. With exceptional bones, irreplaceable architectural details, and significant upside potential, this historic treasure awaits its next chapter.
