ALIVE (Affordable Lifestyle In a Village Environment) is a unique retirement community being developed in the beautiful mountains near Boone, North Carolina. Designed for active adults and seniors seeking a healthier, more connected way of life, ALIVE combines affordability, community, wellness, and the natural beauty of mountain living.
Our vision is to create a village where residents can enjoy their retirement years surrounded by friends, fresh mountain air, and a supportive environment that promotes health, happiness, and longevity.
One of the greatest advantages of ALIVE is its location near Boone and North Carolina’s High Country, an area known for its natural beauty, outdoor recreation, arts, culture, and year-round activities.
