It is a great small community to live in. There are so many great people in this community. It is country as well as some city, so you get the best of both worlds. It has great local restaurants and shops all around the town. It’s very close to downtown Asheville, North Carolina where there are more shops and restaurants. The views of the mountains are great from Leicester, North Carolina. It is a sight to see for sure if you love the mountains.
I really love living in my subdivision,gives me a suburban feel,yet sitting on my deck I see great mountain views.I pull out my gate and I'm in rural farm and country areas.Love the small town feel,no traffic,no noise.Would go 5 stars if we had a small town downtown like Black Mountain or Waynesville.If you want to go out you must drive to these places or downtown Asheville,not a bad thing,but wish we had more eateries in town.
This is a very pleasant agricultural neighborhood near Asheville, NC. I love the views and the mountains that surround this community. The school system is the best in the county. The people are very warm and inviting. The neighborhoods are very engaged in the community.
