The Farm

What’s Simple Life going to be like at The Farm?

Shhhhhh… just listen to the rhythm of water dancing across the reflection pond. A mourning dove breaks the silence of the crisp mountain air. You begin your walk along a wildflower-lined trail dotted with birdhouses and windmills. Ahhh—a bench appears just when you’re ready to rest and listen to a symphony of birds. There are more than 300 bird species in Western North Carolina.

Introducing The Farm—Western North Carolina’s much-anticipated gated cottage community in charming Flat Rock, NC.The Farm is a different kind of farm. It grows community and friendships and harvests laughter, joy, music, song, dance, great food, fresh garden vegetables, and memories that last a lifetime. Some are made with family and friends; others come while stargazing or spotting an extremely rare broad-tailed hummingbird gathering nectar from a flame azalea as you stroll the trail after dinner, discovering a whole new perspective.

As a resident of The Farm—a 60-homesite neighborhood within The Village—you’ll enjoy first-rate amenities, along with access to the beautifully maintained neighboring Simple Life communities, The Village and The Hamlet. Amenities include bocce ball and cornhole courts, dog parks, beautifully landscaped pools, meditation gardens, community vegetable and flower gardens, fitness centers, firepits, and community centers featuring a robust schedule of monthly events, dinners, games, speakers, live music, a pool table, a kitchen, and lounges with comfortable leather chairs.

You’re minutes from more than 3,000 miles of hiking trails, hundreds of waterfalls, 1,600 square miles of national and state forests, the Blue Ridge Parkway, Mount Mitchell, charming downtowns, and dozens of annual cultural events. Enjoy nationally renowned attractions, birding, paddling, golfing, breweries, fishing, biking, hiking, eco-tours, stargazing, theater, and world-class entertainment. And if all that makes you hungry, enjoy brunch, lunch, or dinner at one of the many locally owned restaurants right in your backyard.
