Set on a quiet cul‑de‑sac in Asheville’s desirable Charlotte Street neighborhood, 5 Von Ruck Terrace is a modern, two‑story residence designed for flexible living and effortless entertaining. Built in 2012 and spread across 3,467 SF, the home opens to a spacious, open-plan main level where vaulted ceilings and clean contemporary lines create a gracious sense of volume. Thoughtful material choices and systems upgrades — including a whole‑house dehumidifier, an energy recovery ventilator (ERV), central AC and a heat pump — support comfort and low‑maintenance daily life.
The kitchen, living and dining areas flow together for gatherings while private balconies and multiple sitting areas give family members places to retreat. A gas fireplace with gas logs anchors the main living room and provides a cozy counterpoint to the home’s modern aesthetic. Downstairs, a partially finished lower level includes a well-appointed guest suite ideal for long-term rental, an in-law arrangement, or income generation — a valuable layer of versatility for investors or multi-generational households.
Outside, the level, easily maintained backyard sits on a 0.17‑acre lot and opens to neighborhood green space; the property’s driveway accommodates up to three vehicles. The metal roof and solid construction reflect the home’s contemporary build quality and attention to long-term durability. Practical upgrades and the home’s condition are described as good throughout; prospective buyers should review roof age and HVAC maintenance history as part of due diligence.
Location is central to this property’s appeal. Walk to Charlotte Street’s restaurants, cafes and boutiques, enjoy quick drives to the Grove Park Inn and the Botanical Gardens, or reach Downtown Asheville in under a mile. Whether you’re seeking a primary residence with flexible rental potential or a stylish pied‑à‑terre close to city amenities, this modern home delivers a rare combination of space, systems, and a walkable urban‑adjacent lifestyle.
