Private and beautiful, 42 Merrell Road blends the quiet of mountain living with the convenience of the city. The flowing main floor welcomes in the natural setting with a wrap-around porch and rear deck set within earshot, but well out of reach, of Turkey Creek. The updated, spa-like primary bath is a perfect place to begin and end your day. The updated kitchen, complete with a breakfast nook, makes cooking and gathering easy. With new hardwood floors through most of the main floor and all new paint throughout the house, and a stunning new fireplace, the home is ready to welcome you in. The spacious garage, which is now heated and cooled for year-round comfort, is perfect for a workshop or any other hobby you can dream up. The wooded lot has been thoughtfully managed to bring years of low-maintenance ease while maintaining the tranquillity of trees. All this in a supportive and low-cost neighborhood with easy access to Asheville and the adventures all around. Welcome home.
