Upper-floor 3BR/2BA in Royal Pines - private deck, hardwood floors, and a park across the street.
Jake Rusher Park is literally steps away. Walk to two community nature trails for sunsets and scenic mountain views. You're 5 10 minutes from everything between Asheville and Hendersonville, and North Carolina's best state parks, trails, lakes, and swimming holes are just a short drive out. If getting outside daily matters to you, this location delivers without giving up convenience.
The apartment sits above a separate downstairs unit with one long-term tenant - it's a quiet, well-kept house. You get a private backyard, spacious deck, primary suite, plenty of natural light, and driveway parking for up to 3 cars. Washer/dryer included. New HVAC system in 2025. Average utilities run ~$225/mo.
One honest heads up: Sweeten Creek gets congested during rush hour and you'll hear it from the property during peak times - worth knowing if that matters to you.
We're moving to East AVL. I'll miss my daily walks up the mountain more than anything about this place.
~ $1,975/mo + utilities. Pets welcome. Parking for 3.
First week free - move in by June 8.
