Weaverville

A Sought-After Residential Hotspot with a Mayberry Spirit

Centrally located just 10 minutes north of Asheville, the quaint town of Weaverville not only offers convenience to downtown Asheville’s impressive art, dining, and brewery scene—it’s a destination in its own right! Characterized by its quaint, tree-lined Main Street dotted with local shops and restaurants, along with a thriving arts scene (the biannual Weaverville Art Safari and juried Art in Autumn events draw thousands each year), Weaverville has quickly become a sought-after place to live.

Downtown Weaverville is home to Lake Louise Park, Main Street Nature Park, and Reems Creek Golf Club, and it’s within a 20-30-minute drive of Hatley Pointe Ski Resort and Navitat Canopy Adventures, so outdoor adventure is never far from home! Local dining spots include Blue Mountain Pizza, Twisted Laurel, The Glass Onion, Yellow Mug Coffee Lounge, and Well-Bred Bakery & Café (voted best bakery in WNC).

Weaverville also offers a handful of craft breweries (Eluvium, Zebulon, and Leveller) and an award-winning off-leash dog bar, Wagbar. This spot hosts weekly events, rotating food trucks, and live music, and it offers an outdoor space that doubles as a dog park and hangout for humans. With endless amenities and entertainment options, it’s easy to see why this Mayberry-esque town is known as one of the best places to live near Asheville NC.
