BUYER TOUR | A Bert King Contemporary

Asheville has a rich architectural history. Henry Gaines and Richard Sharp Smith are a couple from early last century. As far as midcentury architects few were as prominent as Bert King (J. Bertram King) from the 50’s to the 80’s. This 1966 home has great contemporary bones and a lovely mountain view location. It could be fun to live in as it is, but likely most people today would like some strategic updates. We would love to walk you through it.

Here is how the listing agents describe it. “Situated in the desirable neighborhood of Kimberly Woods sits a stunning 1966 Bert King home filled with charm and original details. This classic mid-century modern home offers true 1960s style with a sunken light-filled living room with a floor-to-ceiling original fireplace and sliding doors with deck access, a step-up kitchen with a formal dining room, a unique lower-level space with original wall paneling and original fireplace, four bedrooms, two bathrooms, an attached two car carport, a new deck, and updated roof. Tucked away on a spacious well-maintained lot with mature landscaping, this property serves as a private oasis only 10 minutes to bustling downtown Asheville.

Kelly and I have toured this home for a couple of times. We would love to help steward this special home forward into this century. Give us a call for more information or a tour.
