Welcome to 72 Fairfax Ave, a quintessential West Asheville bungalow where original character and thoughtful updates come together in all the right ways. Freshly painted Interior and exterior and full of charm, this 3-bedroom, 1-bath home offers a versatile 3rd bedroom or flex space, giving you room for a home office, studio, cozy 3rd bedroom, den, or whatever your life calls for. The house is flooded with natural light throughout making it feel cheery and welcoming.
Outside, the fenced courtyard style backyard offers a private spot for gardening, gathering, or simply enjoying some fresh air. Another bonus is the oversized garage/workshop — complete with electricity and plenty of room for projects, hobbies, bikes, tools, or all the gear that comes with life in the mountains. A paved driveway provides convenient off-street parking, while the full basement offers additional storage space.

Plus, the location is hard to beat! Set on a quiet neighborhood street, you're just a short distance from so much of what makes West Asheville special — local farmers markets and groceries, restaurants and coffee shops, yoga and wellness studios, shopping, ice cream, and all the everyday conveniences.
