Positioned in the heart of Candler’s growing corridor, this unique offering combines development potential with a rare natural amenity that can anchor a memorable community concept with RM6 zoning. Located near the expanding retail corridor and I-40 expansion, the property offers the location, access, and growth trajectory developers seek. What sets this site apart is the south-facing landscape and direct access to Moore’s Creek featuring a natural sandbank “beach” area, a beautiful natural feature that inspires creek side trails, gathering space, a pocket park within a future community design. A nature setting minutes from everyday conveniences. The existing home includes numerous improvements and future expansion potential. The upper level (~900 SF) is already insulated with electrical rough-in, HVAC in place, and an open permit, making it easy to complete as additional living space. The property also features a new HVAC system (2023), new well pump, and water softener system. City water and sewer are nearby and can be available. This is an excellent development site, offering location, lifestyle, and long-term upside. Showings by appointment only. 24-hour notice required for interior home showings. Land tours may be accommodated with 1-hour notice. Potential buyer pool includes townhome developers, build-for-rent operators, multigenerational family estate seekers, and small infill developers seeking a signature creek side project. Possible for sober living community or residential treatment housing, buyer to confirm. Potential assemblage with adjacent site, contact listing broker for details or tours. Quick access to Smokey Park Hwy and I-40 with new ramp coming in nearby. Minutes to Downtown Asheville and the Blue Ridge Parkway. Due diligence materials available upon request.
