About this home

One of the best remaining lots in the coveted, award-winning community of Olivette! This gorgeous hillside homesite has a rare combination of features, including a corner location (multiple driveway options) and a gentle slope – enough for views, but without the high construction cost of steeper lots. Even better, the seller has readied the lot for immediate construction. Recently surveyed, soil tested, and cleared of undergrowth and brush. Unique neighborhood amenities include fiber-to-home internet, hiking trails, orchard, riverfront park, community gardens, and Olivette’s working organic farm. Walking distance to the French Broad River, Olivette’s waterfront park and pavilion, and the neighborhood’s private river island. The ideal canvas for an exceptional custom home!
