Property Description

Welcome to 48 Wellington Drive, your urban oasis of a 30’s Asheville bungalow on an oversized lot with loads to offer! Updated and ready for you to move in so you can start enjoying your new home without any hassle. A comfortable and roomy porch welcomes you and encourages you to relax and enjoy a morning coffee or an afternoon tea overlooking the spacious front yard with areas of sun and shade, with a mix of mature and newly planted trees. Once inside you’re greeted with an airy living room and bedrooms that are larger than typical for the time period. The home has a nice flow with an open feel from one room to the next. The sweet, updated kitchen with a large pantry, butcher block countertops, and a custom tile backsplash has a passthrough to the dining room with an original built-in cupboard so you can chat with family or guests while preparing food. The bedrooms are spacious with ample windows for natural light. The bathroom has been completely updated, and includes a large, fully tiled shower and newer full-sized washer and dryer for same level laundry convenience. All of this and situated on an oversized, half acre lot! There’s a sweet covered back patio that leads to the fully fenced back yard that offers privacy and room to garden, play, and host. Channel your inner farmer and get some chickens for the deluxe chicken coop (sorry, no chickens included). Cozy up to the chimenea on cool days, and store all of your gardening tools and poultry supplies in the roomy shed. The large backyard has excellent access from the driveway and could support an ADU or tiny house for guests or for added income (buyer to confirm). The “little library” at your sidewalk welcomes guests and passers-by. The house is in a super convenient location, merely minutes from Beaver Lake, a quick sandwich at the Centerville Luncheonette, the services and shops of Reynolds Village, and the new Taylor’s Wave and Riverside Park at the French Broad River, and the house is squarely between downtown Asheville and Main Street in Weaverville. Recent updates include the fully remodeled bathroom and updated kitchen, a new roof (2023), new front steps and deck balusters (2025), updated lighting, and bright new engineered wood floors. The crawl space was cleaned out and a new vapor barrier was installed in January 2026. An Asheville address with Woodfin taxes. 48 Wellington would love for you to visit and feel at home today! Please note that the property didn’t suffer any damage during hurricane Helene, and that the home is being offered “as-is” because of the numerous updates and repairs already made by the sellers.
