A rare combination of historical and newer build - the main part of the house was Rev. Rice’s cabin (Riceville Road was named for him), built in the 1860s with hand-hewn logs, and then enlarged in the 1970s. The house lives well on one level with the upstairs offering the possibility of more bedrooms/offices or an in-law suite with a kitchenette, a deck and exterior stairs with private entrance (no AirBnBs allowed). A breezeway that could be used as a sunroom or mudroom connects the house to a 2 car garage. The greenhouse works year round, and the organic grow beds are planted for your winter vegetable needs. From the back door, you can walk to the Mountains to Sea Trail or drive 5 minutes to the Shope Creek trails. It is a peaceful neighborhood that is perfectly located 20 minutes from downtown Asheville and Black Mountain, with all the conveniences of East Asheville just 8-10 minutes away (Ingles, Copper Crown, Highland Brewing).
