Avery Creek
North CarolinaWelcome to Avery Creek
Avery Creek is an area of Arden (South Asheville). If you like being close to shopping, this area has the Asheville Outlets and Biltmore Park right around the corner.
Interested in getting outside for some hiking and nature experiences? You’re also close to Bent Creek Park, the NC Arboretum, and Lake Julian Park (which also has a playground, boats, and disc golf!)

Homes for Sale in Arden
502 Long Shoals Road $995,000 Subdivision:  | Back to Property List | ||||||||||||||||||
| Rare investor opportunity centered around potential commercial frontage on Long Shoals Road. This nearly 1-acre property offers excellent visibility along a high-traffic corridor, while the existing income-producing home sits privately toward the rear of the lot with separate driveway access from Memory Lane. Currently zoned R2, the property features a 4-bedroom, 3-bath bungalow with strong rental history, mountain views, private deck, lower-level theatre room, second primary suite with separate entry, 1-car garage, and roof replaced in 2014. The home can continue generating income while a buyer explores the long-term value of the Long Shoals Road frontage. City sewer is believed to be very close by near the corner of Memory Lane and Clayton Road, creating potential upside for a buyer willing to pursue sewer connection, subdivision, or possible commercial rezoning, all subject to applicable approvals. The property also benefits from strong sight lines near the Clayton Road intersection and visually reads like a corner lot because the lot at the intersection in front of it is not buildable. Hold the rental home, pursue the frontage opportunity, and unlock the future potential of this highly visible Long Shoals Road parcel. Owner also owns the property next door at 506 Long Shoals, if interested in more frontage potential, please reach out. | Basic Information
