Listing details for 24 Ian River Dr, Asheville, NC 28806 : Located in the rapidly appreciating foothills of West Asheville, this exceptional 2.31-acre estate represents a rare "buy and hold" opportunity that perfectly pairs immediate, high-performing cash flow with massive long-term development upside. At the heart of the property sits a beautifully renovated, fully turnkey 1-bedroom, 1-bathroom cottage that effortlessly defines "mountain modern" living. Inside, the home boasts a bright, open-concept layout with updated appliances and crisp contemporary finishes, while the oversized viewing deck serves as an outdoor living room with a front-row seat to long-range mountain sunsets. Generating revenue from day one, the cottage is ideally suited as a premier short-term rental, a chic primary residence, or a proven long-term income producer.
