Description
Exceptional Development Opportunity in Asheville City Limits Offered for sale is a rare 8.87-acre assemblage of four parcels, ideally positioned for residential development within the Asheville city limits. The property is adjacent to sewer with a 6-inch line and served by city water, significantly reducing infrastructure hurdles for future development, and acreage details are in deed BK 1677 PG 1689 and BK 6442 PG 1657. The property includes a two-bedroom, one-bath cabin built in the 1930s, a fully functioning home with electricity, city water, and an existing septic system. A storage area and carport are also included, offering immediate utility or interim use while planning future development. Located off Tunnel Road on Shawnee Trail, adjacent to the established Redwood Forest development, this offering represents one of only three estate-sized properties at the end of Shawnee Trail, providing both privacy and long-term value. The site enjoys exceptional proximity to I-240, Tunnel Road, and major destinations including downtown Asheville, Asheville Mall, the VA Hospital, grocery stores, restaurants, schools, and interstate access. Zoned RS-4 Residential and situated within the 28805 ZIP code, the property is ideally positioned near the highly desirable areas of Haw Creek, Swannanoa, and North Asheville. Large, developable tracts of this size are increasingly scarce within city limits, making this a compelling opportunity for builders, developers, or investors seeking scale, infrastructure access, zoned RS4 and a prime urban location. One of the few remaining large parcels available for development within Asheville city limits.
