An absolutely idyllic setting in the beautiful Paint Fork area of Barnardsville, this lovely cottage is pluperfect for getting away at the end of the work day or for summers in the woods. Turn right across the creek (steel I-beam bridge), and enter a little wonderland of grand oaks and treated hemlocks, miles of hiking trails behind on neighbor's property. Cottage needs TLC, but what a place for R&R. New roof, wood and gas wall heat.

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.
