Property Description

Enjoy pastoral views and a peaceful existence from inside this solid, rambling, feature rich estate home. This idyllic farm with its rolling hills, mountain views, and expansive acreage is sure to delight those seeking privacy, space to spread out, and absolutely gorgeous, gently laying acreage. This property is ideal for horses, goats, sheep, or even cattle! If gardening is more your thing, the Southern exposure will certainly help your efforts. The grand trees are glorious! All are safely away from the structures. The farm presides over all four seasons. In winter, things are are brown, but still beautiful! Spring and Summer bring glorious blooms and lushness. Fall is abaze with color! At the entrance to this 16+ acre property, you will find a cute as can be cottage that would be perfect for extra family, or make a stylish guest home. No restrictions here, so you could even monetize the extra home as a rental! The layout of the main home is perfect for entertaining due to an open floor plan, but there is still plenty of room for separate interests under roof. Downstairs you will find a second living space that is large and inviting. In fact, the lower level is just as sunny and bright as the upper floor, with similar farm and mountain views. Leicester, properly pronounced “Les-ter” like its English namesake, is a farm community just outside of popular Asheville, North Carolina. Grocery stores, expert health care and pharmacies are all close-by. Restaurants, many that are award winning, are plentiful, and while it would be easy to run out to lunch or dinner, I suspect you may not want to leave home all that often! This property is just that special!
