Explore East Asheville: Where City Convenience Meets Mountain Calm

Just minutes from downtown but worlds away in feel, East Asheville offers the perfect blend of accessibility, community, and natural beauty.

Why Locals Love East Asheville
1. Easy Access to Everything—Without the Downtown Hustle
With fast access to I-240, the Blue Ridge Parkway, and Tunnel Road, you can be downtown, at the VA hospital, or in the woods within minutes. Major shopping centers, groceries, and restaurants line Tunnel Road, making errands quick and convenient.

2. Established Neighborhoods with Character
From tree-lined streets in Beverly Hills and mid-century charm in Haw Creek, to larger wooded lots near Riceville and Bull Mountain, East Asheville is known for its well-kept homes and peaceful surroundings. You’ll find everything from cozy bungalows to updated family homes with mountain views.

3. Outdoor Living at Its Best
Nature lovers flock to East Asheville for its proximity to the Blue Ridge Parkway, Warren Wilson trails, and Azalea Park—which offers sports fields, a dog park, and river access. It’s not uncommon to see neighbors out walking, biking, or gardening most days of the year.

4. Strong Sense of Community
East Asheville is known for its warm, laid-back vibe. Families gather at local parks, neighbors chat at farmers’ markets, and community schools like Haw Creek Elementary and Evergreen Charter are deeply loved.

5. Space to Breathe—and Room to Grow
Whether you want a flat yard for play, a home office with a view, or space for a garden, East Asheville tends to offer larger lots and more breathing room than you’ll find in denser city areas.
