Opportunity abounds at 55 Blalock Avenue in Asheville’s Oakley area. This circa-1940 home sits on a large .59-acre parcel and is being offered together with adjoining 99999 Blalock Avenue, a separate approximately .36-acre vacant parcel, for a combined total of approximately .95 acres. The existing home offers an opportunity for a buyer willing to undertake renovation and address deferred maintenance while preserving an established homesite with substantial surrounding land. The additional parcel creates valuable flexibility for future use, whether retained for privacy and open space or evaluated for additional residential development. Several older outbuildings are also present. Property is sold as-is and will require improvement, but the combination of an existing residence, nearly an acre of land, and two separate parcels creates possibilities rarely found in an established Asheville neighborhood. Buyers should independently verify zoning, utilities, access, and any proposed development or subdivision plans.
