Beautiful country home just 16 miles from Downtown Asheville. This 3bed/1bath house sites on 1.32 acres filled with unique plant diversity leftover from previous owner. It wouldn't take much to bring this diverse plant life back to its original state. On the property there is a new septic system (2015) for the main house and there are two other septic systems that could be restored in order to position multiple dwellings on the property. A leak from the dishwasher in the kitchen has been mitigated and dried. Instead of putting more money into the house the seller significantly dropped the price to reflect the work needed. Great opportunity to add the finishing touches to the kitchen. This is a unique property with plenty of potential!!

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.
