About this home

This premium lot, situated in the exclusive community of custom-built modern homes in Riverbend Forest in E. Asheville, is cleared and excavated, with community well, sewer and underground utilities, providing cost savings when building. While a beautiful wide-profile .84-acre lot, it presents year-round mountain views and is located at the top of a quiet cul-de-sac, only a mile from Interstate 40, and minutes from grocery stores, restaurants and the Blue Ridge Parkway. Less than 15 minutes to downtown Asheville or Black Mountain, the natural beauty of the Swannanoa Valley below is undergoing restoration, and the few remaining structures damaged by the storm 2 years ago, are in the process of being removed. Community landscaping and beautification efforts have been planned and implemented, particularly along the road to the neighborhood. Additional photos provide an architectural rendering, floorplan and model of a home that original owner planned to build.
