Find Convenience & Beauty at Fox Run

In Asheville, North Carolina, finding a place where local and national bands perform side by side, some of the best artists in the country demonstrate their craft, and local breweries offer up nationally-recognized beer next to gourmet food vendors is not a difficult endeavor. That's simply Bele Chere.


Now the Southeast's largest outdoor street festival, Bele Chere has been an Asheville tradition since 1979 and will continue this year over three days from July 23rd to July 25th. The event's name reflects a common theme in Western North Carolina, translating into "beautiful living" from an ancient Scottish dialect. Of course, that's something that Fox Run Preserve, Hendersonville's premier gated community, also knows a thing or two about. Even though you won't find a vibrant combination of concerts, crafts, and culinary masterpieces within Fox Run's gates, you will find plenty of beauty and plenty of inspiration for living in WNC.


Streams, a tranquil pond, hiking paths, fire pits, a springhouse, gracious common areas, and more await adventurous residents who are eager to explore the vast acres of hardwoods and preserved nature. The sounds of the Blue Ridge Mountains are ever-present parts of life there, and long-range mountain views encourage lazy days spent on porches. With so much beauty and wildlife, it may surprise those interested in Fox Run Preserve that events like Bele Chere and eclectic destinations like downtown Hendersonville, NC, are just minutes away from the community.


Ideally located short drives away from both Asheville and Hendersonville, the community enjoys a wonderful address that offers residents both urban convenience and an inspiring, mountain setting.

Hendersonville Celebrates Appalachian Traditions

As cooler temperatures arrive this weekend, residents of Hendersonville, North Carolina, are preparing to celebrate with traditional Appalachian events and activities. The mild, mountain climate will be an ideal setting for the festivities and will be a welcome break during a busy summer.

On Friday, July 9th, residents and visitors alike are invited to kick off their weekend with a free concert. Tom Brown will perform oldies rock as part of the Music on Main Street concert series. Attendees will also have the opportunity to enjoy the Hendersonville Antique Car Club Classic Car Show.

Saturday, July 10th, will offer another mountain tradition with the "Do Tell" Storyfest. The second annual event will feature Appalachian and Cherokee storytellers who will regale their audiences with enthralling tales of adventure, humor, and more.

On July 12th, Western North Carolina residents will once again head outdoors for the second installment of this season's annual street dances. A tradition for 92 years, the dance revives the area's rich mountain heritage and brings it back to life for today's Appalachian enthusiasts. The dances began after World War I when townsmen and women were celebrating the return of local soldiers. Today, the same spirit of celebration and mountain hospitality remain while musicians strum out tunes from banjos and fiddles. A local caller helps dancers learn the steps by shouting out lively instructions, and there are sure to be many experienced dancers who beginners can learn from. On Monday, the Mountain Thunder Cloggers will lead the way as they dance to the sounds of the band Country Farm.

For an up close look at the mountains that have inspired such a rich culture of fun, consider stopping by gated community Fox Run Preserve. With long range mountain views, preserved natural beauty, walking trails, an orchard, and more, it should come as little surprise that so many wonderful traditions have been born in Western North Carolina. Call Sonny Iler at 828-329-9777 to schedule your tour, or complete an online contact form to receive more information about Fox Run Preserve's Hendersonville real estate.
