This northeast-facing sloping homesite is set within the Rivercrest community in Olivette and is suited for a thoughtfully designed mountain retreat. The property sits on a hillside with southern exposure from the road side, and architectural plans are available that account for the existing grade and topography. The setting is described as forested, with winter and potential river views noted as part of the appeal.

The lot is located at 17 Tulip Poplar Trail in Asheville (28804). It is positioned near the French Broad River, with the community described as featuring shared amenities such as hiking trails, community gardens, a dog park, gathering spaces, a waterfront pavilion, a private island, and the community farm.
