Property Description
Amazing opportunity! This sprawling 1906 Five Points classic is loaded with character, history, and raw potential. Built in the traditional four-square style with soaring high ceilings, this unique property offers endless possibilities for creative visionaries. Situated on a generous 0.475-acre lot with strong potential for subdivision (buyer to verify), 23 Northview Street, lovingly known as ‘Possum Splendor’, has served as a vibrant co-housing collective for decades. It features a multi-story floor plan with rich history and incredible eclectic charm, complete with a fourth-story turret. Stunning period details throughout include original fireplaces, hardwood flooring, doors, and more. Outside, the large lot offers mature trees, an expansive garden space, and winter mountain views—a true urban oasis in an amazing and walkable Asheville location. *Home has no central heating system and is being sold AS-IS, cash offers only.
