ABOUT

WHY LEGACY?
Lonny and Flip have come to love the beauty and people of the Western Carolinas. They were looking for a continuing care community near where they currently live. Legacy, with its natural beauty and proximity to Greenville, Hendersonville and Asheville, not to mention the Asheville Regional Airport that will make traveling easy – made a perfect location fit. The chance to join a newly built community that already is creating a welcoming and active environment and will fit their future needs added to the plus column of considerations. Add to that the experienced and reputable developers and managers – Beverly Grant, Inc and Retirement Living Association, the engaging sales team and the other Founding Guild members, well, it was an easy decision to choose Legacy for their next address.
FUTURE AT LEGACY
