About Avery Creek

Avery Creek is a quiet community in southern Buncombe County, sitting about eleven miles south of downtown Asheville and a short drive north of Hendersonville. Set along Brevard Road, it gives residents a laid-back, wooded setting with easy access to everyday conveniences. Interstate 26 is just minutes away, making it simple to reach the Asheville airport, commute into the city, or run errands around Biltmore Park.

The surrounding foothills put plenty of outdoor recreation nearby, with popular hiking and biking trails at Bent Creek and the grounds of the North Carolina Arboretum just up the road. As an unincorporated part of the county, the community has a peaceful residential feel with services handled through Buncombe County. Families are often drawn here by Avery's Creek Elementary and the respected Roberson school district, creating an appealing mix of mountain charm, good schools, and convenience.
