Viewpointe, also called View Pointe, sits in Asheville, North Carolina, and is designed for adults 55 and older who want to stay active and independent, with GreyBeard Realty handling real estate needs for those interested in buying, selling, or leasing homes in the community, and the homes here are often townhouses or condos with features like open floor plans, bonus rooms, screened-in porches, and modern, eat-in kitchens with newer LG appliances, granite countertops, gas ranges, and center islands, making day-to-day living easier and more comfortable. Most of the homes, built around 1997, come with central gas heat, electric water heaters, insulated doors and windows, and a main level two-car garage with a garage door opener, while the flooring ranges from wood and vinyl to carpet and tile, and many kitchens feature dishwashers, disposals, microwaves, exhaust hoods, and even central vacuums, so those who like all the basics covered will find things in decent shape. Residents often enjoy a stone fireplace with flanking bookcases, cathedral ceilings with skylights, walk-in closets, window treatments, bonus rooms for hobbies or exercise, a deck, and a screened-in porch with privacy and winter views, so you've got places to relax, read, or host a few family or friends, but things feel pretty quiet and private at the same time. The community covers a small lot size, about 0.05 acres per home, and since it's set up for low maintenance-a lawn crew comes as part of the HOA fee, which is said to be around $248 or $295 monthly depending on the home-there's no yardwork to worry about, and the exterior uses fiber cement or wood siding with composition shingle roofs and underground power lines to keep things tidy and safer during storms.
There's a clubhouse with fitness equipment, organized activities, arts and crafts, a library, a movie theater, wellness and fitness programs, and resident-run groups, so folks can join in as much or as little as they want, plus walking paths and outdoor spaces for a quick stroll or quiet time outside, and all homes are set within a gated setting for safety and peace of mind. Many units feature three bedrooms and three full bathrooms, with most of the daily essentials, like the main bedroom, bath, laundry, and a second bedroom and bath, on the first floor, and an upstairs for a third bedroom, another bath, den or study, and extra storage, which might make things easier for visiting family or when residents want a little more space for a project. For those who need extra help, services within the community cover assisted living, memory care for residents at risk of wandering or with increased confusion, advanced care for help with bathing and dressing, medication management, daily living assistance, non-ambulatory care, and 24-hour call systems, with meals served restaurant-style, options for special diets like allergies or diabetes, daily housekeeping, laundry, organized transportation, and access to phones, Wi-Fi, cable, and furnishing choices in rooms that can include kitchenettes and private baths, providing both the basics and some add-ons for comfort. People can find independent living, senior apartments, and residential care homes, plus short-term respite care for caregivers who need a break. There's no public pricing, but homeownership is possible and some units allow rentals, giving flexibility for various needs and situations, and for those interested in real estate transactions, pre-qualification for loans is available through services like Zillow Home Loans, so getting started can feel a little less overwhelming. All in all, Viewpointe provides a safe, welcoming, and down-to-earth option for older adults looking for a quieter, social, and supportive place to live, with the comfort of knowing help is there if it's ever needed, but with enough independence for those who still want it.
