About this home

CHARMING mountain cabin where privacy & opportunity perfectly intertwine! The 3 bedroom, 2.5 bath home offers much of the traditional cabin charm and sits on a quaint 1.6 acres. Get some fresh air on your covered front porch swing or on the back deck overlooking your private yet open back yard! The living room boasts a remarkable stone fireplace, beautiful wood beams and plenty of windows to allow natural light to flow in! The kitchen has ample counter & cabinet space, a double basin sink and a long breakfast bar. The lower level features a private entrance, bathroom, sink, refrigerator, hot plate and microwave! It is a great space for an in-law suite, or second living quarters. There is so much potential for the lower level alone! There is also a 1-car garage in the basement. Property is less than a mile from Echo Lake and only 20 minutes to downtown Asheville. This will go quick!

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.

Permitted uses

Include but are not limited to:

Gas station
General retail
Restaurant
Housing-Group
Housing-Single unit
Housing-Multiple units
Manufacturing
Warehouse
Hotel / motel
