Recent improvements include a new heat pump, roof, gutters, front door, primary bathroom tile flooring, and a remote controlled retractable screened skylight. A freshly painted side & rear deck. Repointed stone steps, sidewalk, & accent planter boxes. Recent professional landscaping as well. This house is move-in ready. No septic permit on file w/Buncombe County. County tax information indicates a four bedroom home. It is believed the septic system is not designed to accommodate four bedrooms nor does the room that would be utilized as a bedroom have proper egress. Therefore, the home is being advertised as a three bedroom home. Buyer and/or buyer's representative to verify. Property recently subdivided (9.35 ac became 8.73 ac ~ see attached temporary plat for guidance). Temporary plat to be recorded at or before closing. Private road maintenance agreement also being created to be recorded at or before closing. A small portion of Morgan Cove Road is private with shared access for two properties. Maintenance agreement will govern the shared portion. Buyer of 222 Morgan Cove will be responsible for maintaining their own driveway from the property line to the house. Any additional information will be shared once finalized.
