Deerfield Episcopal Retirement

In 1955, a visionary bishop of the Episcopal Diocese of Western North Carolina and two generous donors who caught his enthusiasm and financed his dream, created a retirement community to care for the elderly on thirty acres of pastureland outside of Asheville, NC. A half-century later, Deerfield has grown into a prestigious, nationally-acclaimed LifeCare retirement community.

Today, Bishop George Henry and his patrons, Mr. And Mrs. Charles Timson, are commemorated in the names of Henry and Timson Halls, Deerfield’s stately mid-rise apartment buildings. They are a part of a recent expansion that took Deerfield from a beloved local health care institution to a premier LifeCare community on 80 beautiful acres just south of the renowned Biltmore Estate. The purchase of additional land in 2005 has increased the Deerfield campus to a total of 110 acres.

Red roofs, stucco and stonework define the look of Deerfield, while tree-shaded lanes bordered with azaleas and rhododendron meander through the walkable community. The design of Deerfield captures the arts and crafts architectural style that characterizes Asheville, a small, friendly mountain city that offers the cultural, recreational and educational opportunities of a much larger one.
