About this home

Welcome home to this classic brick ranch in the heart of Royal Pines, where timeless character, flexible living space, and an unbeatable Arden location come together. A welcoming front porch leads into a bright living room filled with natural light, gleaming hardwood floors, and a beautiful wood-burning fireplace that creates an inviting focal point. Just beyond, the dining area flows into a spacious kitchen with abundant cabinetry, generous counter space, and room to gather, making everyday living and entertaining feel effortless. Three bedrooms and two full baths on the main level offer comfortable one-level living with space for family, guests, or a home office. The lower level opens even more possibilities with a partially finished walk-out basement featuring its own living area, kitchen, bedroom, full bath, and private entrance. Whether you're looking for a guest suite, multigenerational living, or additional flex space, this layout offers exceptional versatility. Outside, the level yard provides room to garden, play, or simply relax beneath the mature trees, while the attached garage and additional parking add everyday convenience. Located just minutes from South Asheville's shopping and dining, Asheville Regional Airport, Biltmore Park, the Blue Ridge Parkway, and downtown Asheville, this home combines the warmth of an established neighborhood with the convenience and lifestyle that make Arden one of Western North Carolina's most sought-after communities.

A rough rule — actual qualification depends on your full debt picture, credit, and the lender. John can introduce you to lenders he trusts.

Numbers are a directional estimate. Actual monthly cost varies by lender, credit, taxes assessed at closing, and insurance carrier. This is not a loan offer or pre-approval.
