This sweet cottage at the end of Reems Creek Valley is tucked away on a quiet street. One bedroom and one bathroom with hardwood floors in the living room, a large bedroom and a tiled bath. Lovely front sitting porch for daydreaming and a low maintenance yard with a bubbling branch in back. Blackberry Road residents take good care of their neighborhood and the state maintains the road. Current broker/owner has had a long term tenant in place for 3 years and has never lived in the home. The tenant has used Directv and ATT for cable and internet. AHS home warranty until July, 2022. Exterior was painted by current owner when purchased and privacy fence was put in then as well. Most furniture can convey with acceptable offer. Seller will make no repairs. Broker/Owner

Cute cabin tucked into the very end of the Reems Creek valley with a babbling creek and mature rhododendrons. This one bedroom/one bath cabin is the perfect place to relax and unwind, either on the front porch enjoying the quiet valley setting or cuddled in front of the gas stove with your favorite book. The cabin has an open floor plan, nice size kitchen with breakfast bar, hardwoods in the main living area, large bedroom, and tiled bath. Outside you'll appreciate the carport on rainy days, the gardening shed for storage, and the gentle flow of the creek to wash away the days worries. The Blackberry Cove neighborhood is beautifully maintained by its residents while the gravel road is conveniently maintained by the state. This little slice of paradise would be an affordable second home, easy starter home, or peaceful forever home. This property also has a solid rental history, both short and long term.

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.
