North Asheville Gem | Timeless Colonial Charm & Exceptional Opportunity
Welcome to this charming 1927 Colonial home in one of Asheville's most sought-after neighborhoods. Nestled in the heart of the picturesque Gracelynn community, this property offers an unparalleled lifestyle just a short, peaceful stroll from the iconic Grove Park Inn, nearby golf courses, UNC Asheville, the Botanical Gardens, and an array of vibrant local shops, cafes, and dining destinations.
Positioned on an exceptionally rare and desirable lot with dual frontage on two quiet, Woodvale Avenue and Kimberly Knoll—the property affords quiet privacy and minimal through-traffic. The unique topography of the back yard includes an elevated rear section that provides a remarkable opportunity for the addition of an accessory building, detached studio, or accessory dwelling unit (ADU), all while capturing potential seasonal winter mountain views.
Outside, the level, fully fenced front yard is inviting and easy to care for, ideal for pets, gardening enthusiasts, or relaxing outdoor recreation.
The main level is full of natural light and it radiates warmth and original character, featuring original hardwood flooring, detailed architectural trim, and original period windows and doors adorned with classic vintage glass knobs. Designed for both everyday living and effortless entertaining, the gourmet-inspired modern kitchen boasts a natural gas range, dedicated preparation island, sleek stainless steel appliances, and a charming breakfast/desk nook. The kitchen flows naturally into a formal dining space and an expansive, sun-lit living room. Expansive French doors extend the living area outdoors onto a generous covered side porch—the perfect setting for morning coffee, evening relaxation, or hosting guests.
The upper level serves as a private sanctuary, featuring three light and airy bedrooms with generous closet space. The full upper bath retains its vintage elegance with a classic clawfoot soaking tub. A second full bathroom is conveniently positioned on the main level to comfortably accommodate guests.
This home sits just minutes from Downtown Asheville and all the premier amenities of North Asheville.
