The setting makes an immediate impression, with classic symmetry and a welcoming approach that feels both refined and grounded. Inside, the floor plan is exceptional, open, intuitive, and built for real living. Oversized rooms are filled with natural light and framed by mountain views throughout. Each bedroom is generously sized and features its own en suite bathroom, creating true private retreats. The layout flows effortlessly, supporting both everyday comfort and larger gatherings with ease. Mornings begin with mist rolling over the mountains; evenings end with sunsets that stretch across the ridgeline. The attached garage plus a massive detached garage offer rare flexibility ideal for multiple vehicles, hobbies, storage, or workshop space. Outside, the land provides room to breathe, gather, and unwind, with open skies and fruit trees. The mountains here aren’t just scenery, they’re part of daily life. Private, well-built, and thoughtfully designed, this is Leicester living at its best just a short drive to Asheville, with open-use zoning and no rental restrictions.
