Tucked into Asheville, 93 Glendale Ave introduces a brand-new Modern Craftsman that balances charm with contemporary ease. The main level is arranged for everyday flow, with an open floor plan connecting the living, kitchen, and dining areas, anchored by high-quality cabinetry and a breakfast bar. A flexible main-level bedroom—equally suited as an office—enjoys a connecting full bath. Upstairs, the primary suite is joined by two additional bedrooms, another full bath, and a dedicated laundry area. Downstairs, a fully finished basement adds generous extra living space with a full bath, ideal for a home theater, gym, or guest suite. Natural gas powers tankless hot water and a linear gas fireplace, while covered front and back decks extend the living experience outdoors for grilling and lounging—all just minutes from what Asheville has to offer.
