Description

A True Asheville Original: Loved 1930s Oakley Rancher Ready for its Next Chapter and New Year!

This is the quintessential Asheville home, lovingly maintained by one family for the last 50 years and ready to become the heart of its next chapter. Located in the highly sought-after Oakley neighborhood, this charming 1930s Rancher perfectly balances historic character with modern practicality.

Imagine owning a piece of Asheville history, conveniently located for work and play. You are just minutes from the vibrant downtown scene, the eclectic shops of Asheville, and the stunning Blue Ridge Parkway. This location offers the perfect balance of peaceful, suburban retreat and urban accessibility = awesome lifestyle!

The Home: Classic Comfort, One-Level Living
Step inside to discover a home built with enduring quality. Enjoy the ease of one-level living paired with a desirable split-bedroom floor plan for privacy. The main level is graced by stunning original hardwood floors that flow throughout most the living areas. The heart of the house is the large, welcoming eat-in family kitchen—an ideal gathering spot that’s ready for holiday traditions or simply sharing daily meals, most of the appliances are brand new. The exterior features low-maintenance aluminum siding and yard, giving you back your weekends to enjoy the mountains.

The property boasts a wonderful elevated deck and a fully fenced yard that is perfectly sized—large enough for play, gardening, or a trampoline, yet manageable enough for low upkeep. With plenty of flat, open space, you have room for a vegetable garden, a flower oasis, or that dream treehouse.

The practical lower level offers valuable utility space, featuring a laundry area, a spacious workshop, and a classic 1930s-style one-car garage (note: basement ceilings are not tall enough for Heated Living Area). Agent Note: The main floor offers a glimpse into potential expansion—a previous owner may have removed the original basement stair access to allow for the creation of a second full bathroom, leaving the possibility for the next family to reimagine this flexible space.

This home is more than a residence; it's an opportunity to inherit a legacy and start your own. Schedule your private viewing today and discover the magic of 298 School Rd E.
