Classic farmhouse with gardens, porches, and flexible spaces, this 1920s home is full of character and possibility on 1.1 unrestricted acres between Waynesville and Asheville. It offers the country feel buyers want with easy access to town, commuting routes, and the best of Western North Carolina. Inside are 3 bedrooms and 3 baths, including a main-level primary suite with walk-in closet and nearby laundry. The light-filled kitchen with custom island and adjoining dining area creates a natural gathering place, while a family room and separate living room provide options for media, work-from-home, play space, or quiet reading. Character details, warm wood tones, and natural light add to the inviting feel, with a floor plan that works well for both everyday living and hosting guests. Outside, the wrap-around porch is ideal for rocking chairs, morning coffee, and sunset views, and the raised garden beds plus open yard offer space for flowers, veggies, and room for chickens or small-scale homesteading. A detached 2-car garage with flex room above(not included in finished sq ft)—perfect for an office, studio, gym, hobby room, or guest overflow—pairs with a separate 2-car carport for additional covered parking or storage, creating a classic farmhouse lifestyle with room to spread out and enjoy the land.
