Description

Buy ahead of the music, coffee, and pedestrian energy — not after. Positioned in a vibrant pocket of South Asheville near the rapidly expanding Fairview growth corridor, this updated Oakley bungalow offers a rare opportunity to secure property just before the next wave of momentum crests.
Located approximately one mile from Biltmore Village and minutes to downtown Asheville, this home sits directly above a soon-to-open major music venue and incoming coffee concept — a powerful signal for appreciation, rental demand, and lifestyle appeal. With quick connections to Interstate 240 and Interstate 40, accessibility supports both daily convenience and long-term investment strength.
For investors, this is a strategic entry point: ideal as a long-term hold, furnished mid-term rental, or hybrid personal-use property positioned to benefit from increasing commercial activity and foot traffic. For young buyers, it offers the chance to live steps from emerging culture while building equity ahead of growth.
Inside, the light-filled 2-bedroom, 1-bath layout preserves its vintage soul with original wood floors, period trim, and a classic clawfoot tub. Thoughtful upgrades provide peace of mind: updated plumbing, HVAC added, 200-amp electrical panel, updated windows, support added and fresh interior and exterior paint. The result is a seamless blend of historic character and modern reliability.
Outside, the covered front porch invites morning coffee and evening unwinding. The fully fenced yard offers privacy and flexible space for pets, gardening, entertaining, or creative outdoor living. An 8’x11’ metal shed adds valuable storage or workshop potential.
Whether you’re seeking your first home, downsizing strategically, or investing ahead of commercial activation, this Oakley bungalow delivers charm, infrastructure updates, and a location positioned for growth. In real estate, timing matters — and this address places you early in the story.
This home blends historic charm with thoughtful updates in a location that can't be beat! Whether you’re a first-time buyer, downsizing, or looking for a smart investment, this Oakley bungalow is a rare find with character, updates, and unbeatable access to all things Asheville.
