News and Events

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.
