SHOWINGS BEGIN MAY 5 Designed for comfort and versatility, the home features 3 full bedrooms including 2 ensuite bedrooms-one conveniently located on the main level and a second private suite upstairs-plus a main-level bunk bedroom ideal for guests or flexible use. A main-level half bath adds convenience, while the lower-level den with an additional half bath creates the perfect secondary living space, game room, or private retreat for visitors. A successful, active short-term rental, this property would make an equally special full-time or second home-offering the same qualities that keep it consistently booked and in demand. Tucked just 14 minutes from downtown Asheville and moments from the Blue Ridge Parkway, this inviting mountain retreat offers the perfect blend of lifestyle, flexibility, and proven rental appeal. With long-range Blue Ridge Mountain views enjoyed directly from the back deck, this home captures the essence of Western North Carolina living. The thoughtful three-level layout allows everyone to spread out while still enjoying shared gathering spaces. Step outside to expansive decking and a welcoming front porch, where you can take in mountain views, relax on the swing, or entertain with ease. A hot tub, fire pit area, and garden beds enhance the outdoor experience, making this property equally suited for full-time living, a second home, or a turnkey short-term rental. Nature lovers will appreciate direct access to nearby hiking, including the renowned Mountains-to-Sea Trail, along with the peaceful setting filled with native flora, flowering gardens, and abundant wildlife. The setting feels private and serene, yet remains incredibly convenient-just minutes to Asheville, Biltmore Estate, and the charming town of Black Mountain. Whether you're seeking a personal mountain escape or an income-producing property with a strong rental history, 31 Bear Den Road delivers a rare combination of location, views, and lifestyle.
