About this home

Tucked into one of Asheville's most established neighborhoods, this 0.275-acre wooded lot offers the kind of privacy that's genuinely hard to find this close to downtown. A gentle slope and mature tree canopy set the building site well back from the road, with a small brook nearby adding to the natural setting — the kind of backdrop that makes you feel miles away while still being minutes from the restaurants, shops, and energy that make Asheville so desirable. Zoned Residential Multi-Family Low Density, the lot opens the door to a range of possibilities — An Asheville getaway, a primary residence or a duplex. A shared driveway easement is in place at the northern boundary, and setback lines are established on the survey. This exceptional 0.275-acre parcel is being subdivided from a larger parent tract identified as Buncombe County PIN 9648-96-0706. A new individual parcel PIN and tax assessed value have not yet been assigned by Buncombe County. Property taxes shown in the MLS are reflective of this status.
