If location is everything this sweet bungalow has it in spades. Your drive home will take you past the lake and through the beautiful Biltmore Lake community directly to Sluder Branch Rd. This adorable bungalow, sitting high on a hill lives so much larger than the square footage would suggest. The very large kitchen with hickory cabinets, stainless steel appliances, and granite counters are unexpected at this price range. The home has it all. Crave a good size front porch with lovely views? Got it. Always wanted a home with a metal roof? Check. Want a back deck where you can grill a nice dinner? Got it. Is a sun room on your list? Got it. Need a storage building and a car port? Got it. Ever think about raising some chickens for the fresh eggs? This home includes a chicken coup ready to go. Recent upgrades to the home include the new back deck, metal roof, vinyl wood floors, water heater, well pump, and chicken coop. The stainless steel appliances are less than five years old. Here is your perfect starter home. Let's talk! Home will be available for showings Friday morning Nov 21.

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.
