Step into timeless style with this downtown Asheville MCM gem. Tucked away on a quiet dead-end road, this 3 BR/2.5 BA home blends classic retro charm with modern updates. Original character and thoughtfully preserved details give the home a nostalgic vibe—retro in all the right ways—while large windows invite in natural light and frame the surrounding greenery and downtown views. The spacious layout offers comfortable living areas perfect for relaxing or entertaining, while the generously sized fenced backyard provides a rare private retreat just minutes from the heart of the city—ideal for pets, gardening, or gathering with friends. Enjoy the best of RAD and Asheville living with parks, coffee shops, restaurants, and local shopping just a short 15-minute walk or bike away in vibrant downtown Asheville. Whether you're looking for a full-time residence or a stylish city escape, this mid-century modern classic delivers on location, character, and charm, all on a quiet, dead-end street. 589 SQFT of bonus space with recently permitted heat strips, making this live and feel like a 1,848 SF home! Originally built by E. Thelma Caldwell, a visionary leader of the YWCA of Asheville. The fireplace is marked with a C. Only two owners! Don't miss this piece of AVL history and a true time capsule.
