Property Description

Perched within the private gates of The Cliffs at Walnut Cove near Asheville, NC, this exceptional stone estate on nearly 3 acres represents the pinnacle of mountain living. Masterfully woven into the mountainside of Ball Mountain, the residence offers a rare opportunity to own a property that harmonizes architecture with the natural landscape.

The home commands magnificent southerly views of the Jack Nicklaus Signature Golf Course and the Blue Ridge Mountains. Spanning 13,635 total square feet (comprising 11,110 HLA and 2,525 non-HLA areas), this three-level residence offers unparalleled scale and flexibility. The floor plan includes 5 bedrooms and 5.5 baths, with the convenience of kitchen and laundry facilities on every level, all serviced by a private elevator.

The main level features a mountain-view primary suite with a reading salon and his-and-her baths and closets, formal dining, dual offices, and a chef’s kitchen with dual walk-in pantries. The top level offers a private guest retreat with an en suite, kitchenette, library, dedicated workroom, and large walk-in closets. The terrace level serves as an entertainer’s paradise, boasting three en suite bedrooms, a 1,500-bottle wine cellar, a private massage room, an exercise room, and an aqua therapy suite complete with sauna, soaking tub, and steam shower.

The seamless flow between indoors and outdoors is defined by curated grounds featuring a main level gracious courtyard with an arbor, a gazebo overlooking a tranquil fish pond with cascading waterfalls, a private hot tub, a dedicated putting green, and a dramatic fire-pit terrace. From the climbing hydrangeas of the pergola to the elevated vantage points throughout, every detail of this estate is crafted for those who appreciate authenticity, quality, and the rare privilege of owning a singular mountain masterpiece.

A Club membership is available for purchase with this property giving you access to all seven Cliffs communities.
