.....One visit is enough for most people to see why Ashe County is considered to be one of North Carolina's best kept secrets. The surrounding beauty of the endless mountain landscape along with an abundant supply of outdoor activities make Ashe County a perfect place for the outdoor enthusiast or those who just want to get away from it all.

.....The county's twin towns of Jefferson and West Jefferson are nestled within the heart of the Blue Ridge Mountains. Although the county has maintained its rural and isolated feel, it remains in close proximity to many larger cities such a Winston-Salem (appx 90 minutes) and Charlotte, NC (two hours).

..... Recent growth within the county has been spurred by the rare opportunity to purchase pristine mountain property with breathtaking vistas, clear mountain streams, and unspoiled natural beauty. All this while being located near a thriving small community of open minded and friendly residents who care deeply about their community and preserving their low stress lifestyle.
