Property Description

Rare Asheville infill opportunity: approximately 0.97 acres with an existing residence and potential development opportunity just minutes from Biltmore Village. Preliminary research indicates the property may be suitable for a subdivision or even a cottage development concept utilizing the existing residence along with additional units, subject to buyer verification, design, permitting, and all applicable approvals. The property's size, layout, existing home placement, utility availability, and natural open-space features create a unique opportunity rarely found this close to downtown Asheville. Situated on approximately 0.97 acres, this unique property offers a combination that is becoming increasingly difficult to find in Asheville: usable land, city convenience, and meaningful future potential. A gentle creek winds along the rear of the property, creating a natural green-space setting that enhances both privacy and character. The existing home has been thoughtfully updated and provides immediate functionality while preserving flexibility for future plans. Set back from the street, the home allows buyers to enjoy the property today while exploring additional possibilities tomorrow. Whether you're searching for a private residence, investment property, family compound, or future development opportunity, this property offers a rare combination of lifestyle, land, location, and potential. Survey available for review. Buyer to verify all development potential, density, permitted uses, and suitability for any future development plans.
