About This Property
Exceptional opportunity at 40 Mountain Shadows Drive. Days on market do not reflect the full value of this home, which was initially introduced during winter in a shifting economy and amid rising fuel and utility costs. Previously under contract with no property-related issues, the home was being considered for short-term rental use and has now returned to market through no fault of its own----repositioned at a compelling value.
Set on more than an acre of usable land with year-round mountain views, this refined mountain residence offers a rare combination of privacy, sophistication, and convenience just minutes from downtown Asheville. Privately tucked within an established enclave, the property provides the ideal balance of quiet seclusion and quick access to acclaimed dining, boutique shopping, and premier medical facilities.
Inside, soaring ceilings, abundant natural light, and timeless architectural details create a warm yet elegant atmosphere. The open-concept layout flows seamlessly from the gourmet kitchen to expansive living and dining areas, designed for both effortless everyday living and memorable entertaining. The main-level primary suite offers a true retreat, while the spacious upstairs en-suite with walk-in closet adds flexibility as a second primary suite, executive office, or private lounge.
The walk-out lower level expands the home’s versatility with a large family room, vented gas fireplace, full bath, kitchenette, and additional flex spaces, ideal for extended guests, recreation, or multi-generational living. Outdoors, covered porches, a scenic patio, and manicured grounds frame the beautiful mountain setting, while dual oversized garages with workshop space provide exceptional utility.
Opportunities of this caliber, offering privacy, scale, and proximity to Asheville, are increasingly rare. Explore 40 Mountain Shadows Drive from the comfort of home with a virtual tour, OPEN HOUSES- are virtual - or contact the listing agent to arrange a private in-person showing. Rent-to-own may also be available; inquire for details.
