Property Description
The main level welcomes you with warm wood flooring, abundant natural light, a spacious family room and dining area, and a cozy ventless gas fireplace with its own thermostat. The kitchen features painted cabinetry, ample counter space, tile flooring, a convenient pass-through to the dining area, and a practical layout for everyday living and entertaining.
All three bedrooms are located upstairs, including a spacious primary suite with a beautifully updated bathroom featuring a walk-in shower. The additional upstairs bathroom has also been updated with a walk-in shower, giving the home a fresh and modern feel.
One of the home's most special features is the 7' x 20' screened-in back porch. Surrounded by mature trees, it truly feels like you're sitting in your own private treehouse. Enjoy your morning coffee, relax at the end of the day, listen to the birds, or watch for squirrels and deer while taking in the sounds of the year-round creek that runs along the rear of the property, approximately 50 feet from the home. It's a peaceful outdoor retreat that makes this property especially unique.
The finished basement with its own exterior entrance offers incredible flexibility. With new luxury vinyl plank flooring, a full bathroom with tub/shower combination, laundry/utility room, storage, and additional finished living space, it can easily serve as a family room, game room, home office, guest area, hobby space, or additional sleeping space depending on your needs.
The home has also benefited from several significant recent improvements, including a brand-new HVAC system installed in March 2026, replacement double-pane windows throughout the home except the basement, custom window shades, new luxury vinyl plank flooring in the basement, and beautifully updated bathrooms.
Additional features include a two-car attached garage with opener, paved driveway, small storage shed, white picket fence. EV owners will appreciate the added convenience of a Tesla charger hardwired directly to the home's electrical panel.
Located in Harmony, a quiet neighborhood of approximately 40 homes, you'll enjoy mature shade trees, a community playground, and the welcoming feel of a smaller neighborhood. The HOA is just $150 annually and includes community snow removal.
Enjoy peaceful surroundings without feeling isolated. Grocery shopping is approximately 1.5 miles away, with additional shopping and restaurants conveniently nearby. Downtown Asheville and I-240/I-40 are about 10 minutes away, and the Blue Ridge Parkway is less than 30 minutes from home.
If peaceful surroundings, mature trees, the sounds of a nearby creek, flexible living space, thoughtful updates, and a convenient Asheville location are what you've been looking for, 18 Friendly Way is one you'll want to see.
