1.35 acres in Buncombe County, NC

602 Hidden Springs Drive sits on 1.35 acres in North Asheville, screened by mature hardwoods that keep the house and yard shaded and private a rare commodity this close to town! A creek runs the length of the front yard, providing natural sound and habitat for the front porch which is elevated and sits at canopy level among the trees, catching the cross-breezes in the warmer months. At the back of the house, a screened porch looks out over the wooded slope behind the property; birds are active in the yard year-round, and the sound carries into the porch through the screens. A multi-level deck steps down from the porch, with a pergola shading part of the outdoor space which features a stunning Japanese maple tree . Inside, the home has three spacious bedrooms and three and a half baths across roughly 3,100 square feet. The primary suite is on the main level, along with the principal living and dining spaces, which have vaulted ceilings and remote controlled fireplaces. The lower level is fully finished and walks out to the yard it's currently flexible space, suited to guests, a home office, a media or rec room. The house has had a substantial round of updates: popcorn ceilings removed throughout, hardwood floors refinished, fresh neutral paint, new carpet, a new hot water heater, new landscaping, SmartCore Ultra flooring in the lower level, and the decks refinished. The combined effect is a house that shows well without having been over-renovated original woodwork, layout, and character are still intact. Practical features include a two-car garage, a walkout basement with a large amount of conditioned (heated/cooled) storage not included in the square footage, and no HOA. Despite the wooded, set-back feel of the lot, the property is a short drive from North Asheville and Weaverville both with restaurants, shops, and highway access and from downtown Asheville itself.
