About This Home
Charming South Asheville Cottage with workshop & bonus space (more pictures to come). Move right into this inviting home at 73 Fair Oaks Road, ideally located just minutes from the Cane Creek Greenway, Asheville Regional Airport, shopping and dining corridor of Hendersonville Rd, and the area's top-rated schools. Either 15 minutes to downtown Asheville or 15 minutes to Hendersonville.
The welcoming living room features warm wood-paneled walls, a cozy wood-burning fireplace, and a custom built-in dinette. The kitchen opens to the large back deck, making outdoor grilling and entertaining a breeze, while the screened porch overlooks the fenced front yard with established landscaping.
Need extra space? The approximately 150-square-foot walk-up attic offers endless possibilities as a home office, art studio, hobby room, or additional storage.
One of the home's features is the expansive 870-square-foot walk-out basement with interior access, 220-volt electrical service, lighting, and abundant workspace. Whether you're a woodworker, artist, craftsperson, or simply need room for bikes, kayaks, and outdoor gear, this flexible space is ready for your vision.
A wrap-around driveway provides ample parking and easy basement access, while the covered carport offers a shaded gathering spot or convenient covered entry during inclement weather.
Recent improvements include a new roof, 6-inch gutters, and HVAC system (2026), providing added value and peace of mind. This move-in-ready home offers the perfect combination of charm, functionality, and an unbeatable South location. Read more about Arden in listing documentation.
