This stunning, authentic setting is a perfect location to take in the spectacular vistas and privacy. Imagine a place in the country where you can safely and peacefully live your best life. Imagine a place that makes you feel like it's always been your destination. Watch the stars in the night sky where music sings in every breeze. Located just 15 minutes outside of either Asheville or Black Mountain, 2 hours to Charlotte, 30 minutes to Chimney Rock. Appreciate mountain view sunsets from the front deck. Watch the birds play and dance in the valley. Drink your tea or coffee in the early mornings from the balcony as you take in the view and spot wildlife such as wild turkey, deer, and bear. Feel like you are above the clouds as the fog covers the valley. The beauty of fall colors from the upper bedroom deck is sure to bring peace to your soul. Enjoy the best feeling of silence late in the afternoon. Vaulted ceilings, stone fireplace, custom kitchen, and large workshop. Room to park an RV

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.
