About this home
The perfect combination of a stunning home and versatile accessory dwelling unit truly does exist! Welcome to 288 Walnut Crest, a beautifully updated property nestled in the highly desirable Livingston Farms community. Known for its scenic walking trails, playground, community gathering areas, and inviting shared spaces, Livingston Farms offers a welcoming atmosphere designed for an active, connected lifestyle. This exceptional property provides the space, flexibility, and community setting buyers have been searching for. This thoughtfully upgraded home features refinished ceilings, fresh paint throughout, and updated lighting, fans, door hardware, and blinds. Wood flooring runs through the main living areas, including primary suite, complemented by carpet in the three bedrooms, while custom closet shelving and dimmer-controlled lighting add both function and comfort. The kitchen has been enhanced with a redesigned pantry to maximize storage and includes a full suite of stainless steel appliances. All bathrooms have been fully renovated, including the primary suite, full bath, and half bath, offering a clean and modern feel throughout. Major systems have been carefully maintained and upgraded. The main level HVAC and furnace are less than five years old and include an air purifier, while the upstairs HVAC system is approximately a year old and also includes air purification. Smart thermostats provide efficient climate control. Outdoor living is just as impressive. The deck has been restored and reinforced to support a future hot tub spa and is accented with ambient lighting. The professionally designed landscaping creates a welcoming and polished exterior environment. A standout feature of this property is the detached cottage, offering a flexible and private space ideal for a home office, homeschooling, creative studio, yoga, or fitness enclave. This structure includes an electric mini split system, baseboard heating, and a composting toilet, making it a comfortable and versatile extension of the home. Additional highlights include washer and dryer hookups in the garage, generator hookups for both the main house and cottage, and fiber optic internet for high speed connectivity. This home combines modern upgrades, flexible living space, and a vibrant neighborhood setting, making it a rare opportunity in Livingston Farms.

R-3
High Density Development District
The Residential Districts are intended for primarily residential purposes. Particularly for the lower-density R-1 and R-2 Districts, these regulations are intended to protect existing single-family neighborhoods in Fletcher from incompatible land uses. By contrast the R-3 District is intended for higher density single and multi-family residential purposes and allows for a variety of residential uses in areas where the traffic circulation pattern would accommodate higher density residential development. It is the intent of the Residential districts to allow for certain types of nonresidential community facilities that would not be detrimental to the residential character of the district as permitted in Section 2.4.
