Biltmore Park - Idyllic Asheville Urban Living

best Asheville NC neighborhoods
Published on May 3, 2017

In recent years, we’ve found more and more Baby Boomers are preferring to move to an urban city for retirement, a new paradigm shift. Why? Because retirees want to leave their cars at home. They want the ability to walk to a coffee shop, to a food market and modern conveniences. We see boomers choosing cities that have good food, rich culture, arts and entertainment, and outdoor activities. When it comes to the Western Carolinas, that’s synonymous with Asheville. 

It is its restaurants, the art scene, the pub scene, the shows, live music and festivals that have become a retiree magnet. Let’s face it, there’s really no where else like Asheville. If you like jazz, you can dance the night away at Tressa's Downtown Jazz and Blues Club. And if you like live theatre, there are several local playhouses in the city center. The list goes on and on. Not only do boomers love the rich cultural scene in Asheville, they love the cooler summers in the mountains, the stunning mountain scenery, hiking along the Blue Ridge Parkway and activities on the French Broad River.  And whether you want a mountain view home, or a low maintenance condominium or townhome in the area, there is a wide range of beautiful new homes in Asheville NC to choose from. Ask our real estate friends at Modern Asheville. They specialize in finding one of a kind homes in Asheville in places such as Biltmore Park.
