Every house tells a story. This one begins on the east side of Asheville, where Riceville Valley rolls along the Blue Ridge and a gravel lane leads to something increasingly rare in the mountains...three quarters of an acre of open, level, sun filled ground. What would you do with that much usable space? Grow tomatoes. Plant flowers. Let the dog run. Invite friends over. Sit on the screened porch while the birds carry on in the trees and where dinners linger a little longer. The house itself feels just as easy. Built in 2017 with GreenBuilt NC certification and Arts and Crafts character, it offers three bedrooms and two baths on one comfortable level, with abundant natural light, warm wood T&G overhead in the vaulted great room, and a kitchen, dining and living arrangement that flows without feeling forced. Nothing here feels excessive, yet nothing is lacking either. It is efficient, thoughtful, and wonderfully livable. Step outside and the tale continues. Established beds and gardens, fruit trees, broad southern exposure, a detached garage for projects and gear, and enough breathing room to make everyday life feel a little less hurried. Head up toward the Parkway for a hike, run into Asheville when the mood strikes, then meander home to grilling greatness, a fire after dark, and stars overhead. What will your story be?
