About this home

This listing is for 3.32 acres of the almost 7 acres tract. Purchase half or all acreage at $3,599,000 (MLS#: 4395239). *2nd living quarters sf not counted as finished sf due to ceiling height being below 7’. Rare residential development opportunity in a highly desirable and rapidly growing area! This exceptional nearly 7-acre tract offers gently rolling topography, picturesque hayfields, and a beautiful pastoral setting with tremendous potential for residential development. Passed down through generations, this property presents a unique opportunity to create a thoughtfully designed residential community, while the existing farmhouse and additional dwellings provide flexibility for continued use, rental income, renovation, or interim housing during development. Surrounded by R-1 and EMP zoning, permitted uses include single-family homes, duplexes, and residential development, along with a variety of other potential uses. Per Buncombe County information, maximum density may allow up to 12 dwellings per acre, subject to county approval and applicable development requirements. Existing infrastructure—including power, wells, and septic systems—provides an important head start for future development. There is no right-of-way through the property. The location is equally compelling, offering a peaceful rural setting just minutes from Asheville Airport, shopping, restaurants, entertainment, and area attractions, with convenient access to Interstate 26. The property's gentle topography and expansive open fields offer an ideal canvas for creating a desirable residential community in an area experiencing continued growth. Whether envisioned as a boutique neighborhood, collection of homes, duplex development, family compound, or investment opportunity, this versatile tract offers the land, location, infrastructure, and potential to make a lasting investment. Opportunities of this size and character in such a convenient location are increasingly rare—don't miss the chance to explore the possibilities.
