All the perks of country living, yet a short drive to town! This lovely Leicester home welcomes you into its comfy living room with gleaming wood floors which carry through to all three bedrooms. The kitchen is large with stylish stainless appliances and plenty of room for dining in. A cozy family room features a rock fireplace complete with a brand new wood burning insert for the chilly winter nights that are certain to return! While it is still warm, sit on the covered front porch & enjoy the large fenced front yard that's great for animals or kids to play. Also from the front yard, you will enjoy the kind of beautiful distant mountain views you only see in the country! And there is even more room out back if you want to plant some vegetables! And store those gardening supplies in the shed that's already provided. The unfinished basement offers all the storage space you need with easy access through a full size garage door. This home and property truly is the whole package!!

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.
