Keswick Hills' Great Location!

Location, Location, Location: Keswick Hills, established in 1998, not only benefits from the convenient location of being close to the amenities of town while feeling like you’re in a secluded mountain retreat, but it also benefits from lower Buncombe County taxes (see: http://www.ashevillechamber.org/economicdevelopm...ent/PDFs/taxes.pdf). It is also located in a highly ranked school district, which is important to the value of your investment even if you do not have school children.

Future plans for Keswick Hills include creating hiking-walking trails, a labyrinth, and an understated art sculpture garden in an Arboretum setting where visiting local art sculpture exhibits will rotate.
