Drovers Road Preserve- Aptly Named

Drovers Road Preserve- 
Today’s Tribute to Days Gone ByDrovers Road Preserve FAIRVIEW (Asheville) NC

Asheville Real Estate Journal 

 

Drovers Road Preserve is an Asheville area conservation-oriented development with historical roots. Aptly named for its still visible trail, Drovers Road celebrates days gone by.

 

When you visit Drovers Road, look for the trail just inside the entrance to the 186-acre eco-sensitive development. (see photo) You will find a perfectly preserved road that once connected drovers to and from the markets of Asheville’s city center.  

 

The historic wagon road is honored with plaques; it’s a story being told as you enter the preserve. And you may also notice that while there is a new, and carefully planned, paved road right beside it, the worn path now serves to connect the development’s residents to a piece of local history. That historical connection continues as you explore Drovers Road Preserve.  It can be found everywhere from streets named after historical and local figures to informational plaques that tell the story of the land.

 

 Insights:  Most homes surprise you as you walk this land—they may be large or small, but they fit into the place and contribute to its beauty. (None are currently for sale.) There are 8 building sites for sale at Drovers Road Preserve.    They range in size from 1.5+ to 10 Acres, and in price from $215K to $695K.
