Welcome to 1048 Jenkins Valley Road, where you don’t have to choose between privacy, luxury, and convenience. This is the kind of place people come to Asheville hoping to find and rarely do. Tucked away on nearly 2 peaceful acres, yet only 15 minutes from downtown, it offers that hard to get balance of quiet mountain living with easy access to everything you love about the city.
From the moment you walk in, it’s clear this isn’t just a remodel, it’s a complete transformation. The home feels like new with a bright, open layout, vaulted ceilings, and three separate living areas. The kitchen is the heart of it all, featuring a massive quartz island imported from Spain, custom hardwood floors, and high end finishes that make it as functional as it is beautiful.
Every detail is intentional, from the tucked away laundry room to the thoughtfully designed tiled showers that add a bit of artistry to everyday living. Step outside, and it only gets better. The screened in porch is made for peaceful mornings and tranquil evenings, while the open deck looks out over a charming pole barn and a natural watering hole that regularly draws in local wildlife. This could be your own private slice of the mountains.
With nearly 2,000 square feet on the main level, the home offers 3 bedrooms and 2 1/2 bathrooms with easy, comfortable living all on one floor. Downstairs, you will find an additional living room along with three bonus rooms, giving you even more flexibility for guests, workspaces, or hobbies. The lower level is also plumbed for an additional 1 1/2 bathrooms, creating a great opportunity to expand and add your own personal touch.
Whether you’re dreaming of a homestead, exploring income potential, or simply want a turnkey escape, this property delivers. It is being offered fully furnished, with a well stocked kitchen ready for your first dinner party or a cosy night in. The flat, usable yard is perfect for gardening, gathering, or just enjoying the fresh mountain air.
The property is currently being used as a short-term rental.
