Enjoy the best of both worlds, where views of Western Carolina University meet the feel of your own private retreat. Located in the heart of campus living, yet tucked behind a surprisingly peaceful back patio, this home offers a rare balance of energy and escape. This 4 bed, 3 bath home features both a formal living room and separate family room, all accented by hardwood flooring. The updated kitchen anchors the home and connects seamlessly to the main living areas, creating an easy flow for everyday living and entertaining. A standout feature is the adjoined 1 bed, 1 bath space with its own private access or adjoined to the main house, currently operating as an active vacation rental (83 stays and $20,900 in 2025). Continue using it for income or incorporate it as a private primary suite or guest quarters depending on your needs. Just minutes to campus, dining, and everyday conveniences, this property is ideal for full time living, student housing, or those looking to offset their mortgage with added flexibility.
