Not surprisingly, Asheville is often mentioned in Money's "Best Places" lists, including the Best Places to Retire and 2009's reader's choice. In more recent news, the Blue Ridge haven has been pinpointed by CNN as one of the 5 best markets to buy a home. Along with southern South Carolina; Reading, PA; Sante Fe, NM; and Portland, ME, Asheville has some enticing qualities of which home buyers should take notice. Not even including the natural scenery and eclectic cultural heritage, which have long been drawing tourists and residents to the area, Asheville boasts relatively inexpensive homes that have risen only 5% since prices bottomed out in 2011. A typical Asheville home goes for $249,000, while few listings are over $350,000.
