Step into a thoughtfully designed mountain retreat at 16 Regent Heights Rd, located inside a private, gated Leicester community where the clubhouse—and the long-range views beyond—becomes part of everyday life. The home’s tall ceilings and open-plan living area create an immediate sense of space; a flexible great room and dining area sit at the center of the layout, flanked by a split-bedroom arrangement that prioritizes privacy for the primary suite. High ceilings and well-scaled rooms give this 2019-built residence a modern, airy feel without excess.
The kitchen and living areas open easily to one another, making the floor plan ideal for both quiet evenings and casual entertaining. The primary bedroom provides a restful wing with direct access to a full bath, while two additional bedrooms and the second full bathroom accommodate guests or a home-office setup. Downstairs, an unfinished basement—already stubbed for a full bathroom—offers a rare, value-adding opportunity: finish it as an ADU-style suite, media room, workshop, or fitness space to suit your lifestyle and resale goals.
Outside, the community lifts this property beyond its four walls. Residents enjoy a clubhouse with a workout room, a gathering area, and a pool, plus a community garden and a network of trails that thread the neighborhood. Those amenities and an active community calendar help create a social, low-maintenance lifestyle for owners who want recreation close to home.
Practical conveniences are part of the appeal: the house sits roughly 20 minutes from downtown Asheville and about 30 minutes from the regional airport, making commutes and weekend escapes straightforward. Offered at $519,900—close to the valuation midpoint—the property is move-in ready and comes with a seller-offered 2-10 Home Warranty with an acceptable offer. For buyers seeking a balance of mountain scenery, community amenities, and expansion potential in the unfinished basement, this Leicester home is a compelling option. Schedule a showing to experience the layout and the community firsthand.
Leicester offers a quiet, mountain-minded lifestyle with easy access to Asheville’s dining and cultural scene. This gated community focuses on outdoor living—trails, a community garden, and an active clubhouse create social opportunities and low-maintenance recreation for residents. The neighborhood feels residential and connected, appealing to buyers who want proximity to city amenities without urban density. With a short drive to shopping and the airport, Leicester blends rural charm with practical convenience.
Specific local MLS metrics for Leicester were not provided with this listing; however, the listing data gives useful context. The broker list price of $519,900 corresponds closely to the valuation midpoint ($519,900) and a price-per-square-foot benchmark of roughly $260 for this 2,000 sq ft, 2019-built home. That alignment suggests the seller is pricing competitively relative to modeled comparables. In communities centered on amenities—gated access, clubhouse, pool, trails and community garden—buyer demand typically skews higher than for similarly sized properties without amenities, particularly given this home's 20-minute proximity to downtown Asheville. For buyers, that means well-priced, amenity-rich homes often receive steady interest; for sellers, it supports a constructive negotiating position when inventory is limited.
Because precise indicators such as days on market and current inventory were not supplied, prospective buyers and agents should consult the local MLS for up-to-date absorption rates and recent closed sales. In short: this listing’s price sits near automated valuation, the onsite amenities are market differentiators, and its proximity to Asheville increases appeal for both primary buyers and second-home buyers seeking mountain access with city convenience.
Very good outdoor recreation access with community trails, a community garden, an onsite clubhouse pool and fitness room, plus easy access to regional mountain recreation and Asheville-area parks.
