Prime 13.73 Acres in Asheville – Endless Possibilities! Looking for a unique opportunity in Asheville? This 13.73-acre property offers incredible potential, whether you're a developer or someone seeking the perfect location for your dream estate that is located outside of an HOA. Preliminary discussions suggest the possibility for a minor subdivision, allowing for up to 21 homes if development potential is what you are looking for. See attached design. Convenient access to City Water and City Sewer with tap fees required. If developing a subdivision is not your vision, this is also the ideal spot for a private estate offering peace and privacy of a larger parcel. Located just 15 minutes from vibrant Downtown Asheville, you'll enjoy quick access to elevated dining to down-home and farm to table options. The possibilities are endless – whether you’re planning a development or a luxury home with plenty of space to spread out. Don’t miss out on this rare opportunity to own a prime piece of Asheville land! See MLS 4315765 for acreage AND home.
