Nature Lover’s Paradise. Stroll up walkway made from bricks salvaged from Montford Ave & step into this Williamsburg masterpiece. Inside you’ll find more history and attention to detail. Built in 1974 by history buffs and purchased by the current owners in 1978. They maintained the integrity and added a few updates including finishing space over the garage. Featuring custom small pane windows, wide plank heart pine floors, antique mantle & farm house doors, this home has it all. Ready for your upgrades. Basement has huge FP and stubbed out bath. Storage shed would make a great studio or office. Connect electric to box on the house. In the lower part of Fairview Forest this desirable section makes for easy in & out year round. ½ mile up quaint lane with flat drive access. Want MBR on main? Convert the office/library & adjacent sewing room into a suite. Meticulously maintained. Winter views. Last home on the lane. Privacy, peace & quiet abound. Vacation Rentals are not allowed.

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.
