This is a very rare opportunity to purchased a partially developed home site that includes 3 lots. There is incredible view potential as well and the possibility of building additional homes. The most economical possibility would be building to build one or two, 1,200 cabins on piers with shared water from existing home site. Fairview Forest is a beautiful wooded community that feels more like a park than a development. There is a recently updated club house with fireplace and adjacent large parking areas. The land around the club house is level and adjoins pristine Trantham Creek. Fairview is a friendly, vibrant small community of artists, musicians, entrepreneurs and folk that are engaged in the live of the community. The scenery is very pastoral as we have an abundance of small family farms. If you are looking for a country feel yet want access to all that the City of Asheville has to offer, you may want to call Fairview home!
As the MLS and public records start to fill up, we'll list the details here.

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.
Permitted uses
Include but are not limited to:
Gas station
