Things To See and Do In Buncombe County, Henderson County, Madison County and Asheville!

Outdoor adventure possibilities never end in Asheville, with four navigable rivers, winter skiing, and all kinds of biking challenges:  curvy roads for motorbike, miles of off-road trails for mountain bike, and the <L=HTTP: www.blueridgeparkway.org><BLUE Parkway<L Ridge>and great roads for road bike. The area’s reputation continues to grow as an outdoor mecca, with an annual festival devoted strictly to mountain sports and consistent ratings by publications, (http://www.ashevillechamber.org/pdf/Asheville_Rankings_May_2005.pdf) as a top adventure town in the U.S. Soft adventure awaits car travelers and others less willing to hang from the side of a rock for thrills—the Blue Ridge, Great Smoky, and Black Mountains provide the perfect backdrop for spring color and fall leaf viewing and easy hiking and picnic facilities abound off the Parkway.


Attractions: 

 Bountiful attractions suit many ages and interests, with George Vanderbilt’s mansion, Biltmore Estate, (http://www.biltmore.com/) the best known of the batch. But, did you know there are railroads, nature preserves, and even a casino? Be sure to check the list for off-the-beaten-path attractions like the Blue Ridge Corn Maze and other undiscovered treasures sure to delight and surprise.  Museum attractions are plentiful, with the Thomas Wolfe Memorial, the home place of one of America’s beloved writers, as well as an art museum and many other history and cultural centers.

Entertainment:

If you seek it, you will find it.  Downtown bustles with the energy of an active nightlife well after the sun goes down. At least seven theatre companies as well as a number of independent stages and venues lead the way in arts entertainment, but an art house movie theatre, microbreweries, and mountain music at many turns in the road round out the possibilities. Check out what’s going on at the Asheville Civic Center, and the Thomas Wolfe Auditorium located in downtown Asheville. (http://ashevilleciviccenter.com/)

And, it doesn’t stop.

Relax, rest, and rejuvenate in Asheville at one of many spas, (http://www.asheville-nc.worldweb.com/BusinessIndex/Spas) that have sprung up over the last few years.
This city rates, year after year, as one of the nation’s top arts towns, and you will not find a higher concentration of artists and crafters many places other than Western North Carolina.
Tee off from the mountains at one of the area’s many golf courses, several of which were designed by well-known designer Donald Ross.
Family adventure awaits with mini golf, a climbing center, paint-your-own pottery shops, and even a place called Fun Depot, just for kids. Two downtown science museums specialize in children young and old, and get out of the city for down to earth experiences at the Cradle of Forestry or Vance Birthplace. Don’t forget that some of the best family fun can’t be bought—take time to splash in the water at Sliding Rock or go stargazing on the Blue Ridge Parkway (http://www.blueridgeparkway.org/)
Just about every weekend from spring until fall, Asheville and its surrounding towns play host to all kinds of festivals from Bele Chere, (http://www.belechere.com/) the southeast’s largest outdoor street festival, to the Mountain Dance & Folk Festival which celebrates the area’s rich heritage.

Real Estate Tips
Time to Move >Housing Considerations

The impending arrival of a new baby is an important catalyst for many couples to plan a move. You may need more space or prefer a larger yard or a street with less traffic. Having a baby represents a profound change in life. Your thoughts about housing suddenly begin to include considerations about schools, neighborhood playgrounds, and other families with young children.

If you plan to enlarge your family in the near future, it is a good idea to assess your real estate needs early in the planning stage. If you have a condominium or smaller house which you have to sell in order to buy a new home, talk to us about placing your current home on the market now. It could take a while for it to close, even if we find buyers relatively quickly. Most real estate agents have stories of closing attorneys bringing paperwork to the maternity ward. While this may provide witty repartee for the agent, it is not a lot of fun for the new parents trying to work out the last minute details of a major move when the baby is about to arrive.
