Property Description

Some homes have a personality all their own, and this 1969 mid-century modern is one of them! Set on 2.72 elevated acres just minutes from downtown Asheville, this is an uncommon opportunity to own a home that has retained the design details that made the mid-century era so iconic. From the first impression this home’s architecture stands apart. Brick planter beds frame the front of the home and lead to a distinctive angled brick wall that hints at the dramatic fireplace that anchors the living room inside. Original light fixtures, a cedar-lined entry closet, warm wood accents, and an untouched kitchen and baths create a home that feels authentic rather than recreated. Beyond its architectural appeal, the property offers room to dream. Enjoy morning coffee from the spacious front porch while taking in long-range views toward the Blue Ridge Parkway. The land continues to rise behind the home, revealing even broader mountain views and several usable areas, including a generous garden space perfect for flowers, vegetables, or simply enjoying the outdoors. The flexible floor plan includes three bedrooms plus a bonus room, a full hall bathroom and half bath servicing the main bedroom on the main level, while the basement—with excellent ceiling height, a second full bath, workshop space, and garage—offers exciting possibilities for additional finished living space. Two detached outbuildings provide even more versatility, whether your interests include gardening, woodworking, collecting, or storing recreational equipment this property has it all. Properties that combine authentic mid-century architecture, acreage, mountain views, and room to grow are becoming increasingly rare. If you've been searching for something with character, originality, and endless potential, 142 Avondale Road is ready to inspire its next owner.
