Description
Completely renovated and move-in ready, 40 Mintz Lane in Swannanoa, NC offers the perfect blend of modern updates, privacy, and flexibility on 3.17 beautiful acres. Conveniently located between Asheville and Black Mountain, this extensively remodeled property is ideal as a primary residence, mountain retreat, multigenerational home, or investment opportunity. Nearly every major component of the home has been thoughtfully updated, allowing buyers to enjoy the peace of mind that comes with a truly turnkey property. The beautifully remodeled kitchen features new countertops, a new refrigerator, microwave, dishwasher, and modern finishes, creating a stylish and functional space for everyday living and entertaining. The spacious primary suite has been enhanced with a completely renovated ensuite bathroom, refinished hardwood floors, and new carpet in the walk-in closet. Designed for enjoying the outdoors, the property features a beautiful in-ground pool with a new vinyl liner, new pool drain line, new pool pump, and a refinished pool deck, creating the perfect setting for relaxing or entertaining. A newly renovated porch with two Andersen sliding glass doors seamlessly connects the indoor and outdoor living spaces, while new entry patio stonework enhances the home's welcoming curb appeal. The extensive list of improvements continues with new Andersen windows, a new roof, gutters, soffits, and downspouts, new heat pump, new hot water heater, upgraded electrical service and panel, new plumbing with grinder pump, lower-level copper drain line replacement, a brand-new septic system with tank and leach field, and a custom-built chimney cap. These significant upgrades provide long-term value and allow buyers to move in with confidence. Adding even more versatility, the former single-car garage has been professionally converted into additional finished living space featuring a guest bedroom, full bath, laundry room, and closet. The lower level has previously operated as a short-term rental, offering excellent income potential (subject to local regulations). The interior staircase connecting the lower and upper levels could easily be reopened, allowing the home to function once again as one spacious residence or continue to provide flexible living arrangements for guests or extended family. Situated on over 3 private acres, this property offers room to enjoy nature while remaining just minutes from downtown Black Mountain, Asheville, hiking, the Blue Ridge Parkway, breweries, restaurants, shopping, and endless outdoor recreation. With extensive renovations, flexible living options, income potential, and a prime location in one of Western North Carolina's most desirable communities, 40 Mintz Lane is a rare opportunity to own a beautifully updated mountain home that's truly ready for its next chapter.
