Enjoy a beautiful ride through some of the prettiest parts of Buncombe County on your way to Barnardsville. Just 20 minutes from Downtown Asheville sits just under 1 acre of pretty property in an idyllic location on pristine Paint Fork Road. A creek runs in the front of the property and as soon as you cross that through the gate you will come upon a horrible mess with a single wide trailer on it that needs to be removed. All of the other shed/flop houses/outbuildings need to go also. The tax records show an old house and a pretty picture, but there is no house and not too many pretty pictures either. The price is reflective of the value of the improved property once all the trash has been removed and nothing more. There is no real heat source, there is no septic record either, but it is a pretty piece of land!

OU
Open Use District
The OU Open Use District is established as a district in which all uses are allowed by right, except for certain uses that are regulated as conditional uses so as to ensure that neighborhood impact is mitigated. Additionally, those uses which are specific to the Airport Industry District (AI) are excluded from the OU Open Use District. The neighborhood impact from conditional uses will be mitigated through the use of minimum specific site standards combined with general standards which provide the flexibility to impose a higher level of specific site standards dependent upon the degree of neighborhood impact. No zoning permit shall be required for permitted uses in the OU Open Use District.
