Property Description

Rare Oakley opportunity with development potential, creative accessory spaces, lush organic gardens, and a massive lot stretching from Wentworth Avenue to Loomis. This property offers far more than a traditional home site. Land, flexibility, character, and room for the next chapter. With current zoning allowing the potential for two or more additional building lots (buyer to verify), imagine the possibilities. The existing 2-bedroom, 2-bath main-level home offers a comfortable starting point, with a partially finished basement that has been creatively improved to include a den, hair studio, and office space. Across the grounds, the owner has created a collection of unique spaces designed for creativity, gathering, retreat, and imagination. The chapel has served as a memorable setting for wedding parties and bridal preparations. Behind it, the cabin offers a suite-style tiny home experience. The Owl’s Nest, affectionately known as the penthouse, adds a whimsical elevated playhouse-style escape. A trellis, organic gardens, mature perennials, pollinator plantings, blackberry bushes, and thoughtfully cultivated outdoor areas bring beauty and life to every corner of the property. Whether you envision a private urban homestead, creative compound, income-producing retreat, development opportunity, or a legacy property with multiple future homesites, 25 Wentworth offers a rare canvas in one of Asheville’s most convenient neighborhoods. Located in Oakley with easy access to downtown Asheville, Biltmore Village, Tunnel Road, parks, shopping, and dining, this property is ready for you.
