The seller's favorite thing about this property is the proximity to a playground, walking trail, and the local farmer's market! This home has everything you could need and is ready to be home to new owners!

SR
Suburban Residential District
The character of the Suburban Residential (SR) District is defined as that which is primarily intended for existing, possibly nonconforming, recorded single family residential subdivisions and lots of record. Its purposes are to accommodate existing, substandard subdivision developments and lots, to permit the build-out of single family residential uses in those developments and lots, to encourage the development of sanitary sewer systems for the existing development in the Lake Lemon area, to discourage the development of nonresidential uses, to protect environmentally sensitive areas, such as floodplain, karst, and steep slopes, and to maintain the character of the surrounding neighborhood. Therefore, the number of uses permitted in the SR District is limited. Some uses are conditionally permitted. The conditions placed on these uses are to insure their compatibility with the residential uses. The need for expanding this district beyond the areas designated on the Official Zone Maps on the date of the adoption of the zoning regulations is not anticipated or encouraged.
