About 56
Set in Asheville's historic Montford neighborhood, this ground-floor two-bedroom, one-bath apartment places you less than half a mile from downtown's restaurants, galleries, and entertainment. Pets are welcome — up to two — and the ground-floor, street-level layout makes coming and going with your pets as easy as it gets. The kitchen is outfitted with a stainless steel French door refrigerator with built-in ice maker, electric range, over-the-range microwave, dishwasher, and garbage disposal, all flanked by wood panel cabinets with ample storage. Both bedrooms feature a ceiling fan and closet. The living area includes built-in wood bookshelves. The bathroom offers a walk-in shower with grab bars and a floating vanity with mirror cabinet. Radiant heat tile floors run throughout the unit, delivering consistent warmth from the ground up. A full-size stacked washer and dryer are housed in a private laundry room accessible from the covered porch, with extra storage space included. Window units provide cooling, and a centrally monitored alarm system is included. A shared courtyard and garden — complete with tables, chairs, and a firepit — is available for resident use. The property sits behind established stone retaining walls and mature trees that reflect the character of the Montford neighborhood. Double entry doors on both sides of the home offer flexible access, with driveway parking directly outside one entrance and a covered, enclosed front porch on the opposite side. Water, sewer, and trash collection are included in the rent. Landscaping and lawn maintenance services are included. This property is pet-friendly, up to two pets, with a $250 refundable deposit per pet. 56-A Starnes Avenue is being marketed and leased by Iron Creek Properties with ongoing management provided by the landlord. Sorry, no co-signers.
