A New Era of Retirement Living for a New Kind of Retiree

You’ve never followed a traditional path—so why should retirement be any different?  At Legacy at Mills River, we’re creating something new: a retirement community designed for those who expect more.  More innovation. More flexibility. More opportunities to live life your way.

Legacy isn’t just where you’ll live—it’s the kind of home you’ve been waiting for.

Find Your Dream Retirement Home

Owning a home at Legacy combines luxury retirement living with the security of knowing your long-term needs will be met.

Community

Where Connection Becomes a Way of Life

Retirement should be about more than slowing down—it’s about showing up, together. At Legacy at Mills River, neighbors become lifelong friends in a vibrant, welcoming community built for shared experiences. From social clubs and events to spontaneous conversations on the walking trails, here, connection comes naturally.

Equity Model

Own Your Home. Shape Your Legacy.

Legacy reimagines retirement living with a model that puts ownership in your hands. Instead of entrance fees and leases, you own your residence—building equity while enjoying all the benefits of a supportive, luxury retirement community. It’s a smarter, more flexible approach that aligns with your financial future.

Lifestyle

Retire Like You Live—On Your Terms

Nestled in the beauty of Western North Carolina, Legacy offers everything you love about the area—plus a little extra. Think: new-construction homes, upscale amenities, scenic trails, wellness programs, and zero waitlists. Retirement here doesn’t mean settling—it means upgrading.

Healthcare

Peace of Mind, Right at Home

Legacy offers private, on-site healthcare designed to meet your needs today—and tomorrow. Whether it’s a quick visit with a physician or long-term support, our full continuum of care ensures you’re covered without ever leaving the community you call home.

Value

The Retirement You Didn’t Think Existed

Forget what you thought a retirement community had to be. At Legacy, there are no compromises—just the freedom to live your way, with ownership, independence, and built-in care when you need it. It’s the best of modern retirement, finally in one place.
