Framed by soaring architectural glass, the larger-than-life presence of the Blue Ridge Mountains takes center stage in this extraordinary retreat within The Cliffs at Walnut Cove, where majestic, rolling peaks feel almost close enough to touch. Sunlight pours across warm earth tones and rich timber craftsmanship, illuminating an interior thoughtfully designed for gathering. Double timber entry doors welcome you into a grand great room with vaulted timber-beamed ceilings and a floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace. The open main level flows directly into a chef’s kitchen featuring an oversized central island, granite countertops, custom cabinetry, and a sunlit dining area. Glass doors extend the living space outdoors onto a covered screened porch with its own stone fireplace alongside an adjoining sun deck.
Main-floor living features an executive office off the foyer and a primary suite complete with a private fireplace, dual walk-in closets, and an en-suite bath with radiant heated floors. Downstairs, the terrace level offers an ideal layout for family and guests, balancing private quarters with inviting shared spaces. A secondary family room centered around a stone fireplace creates a natural setting for a movie lounge or game room, accompanied by a flexible bonus room currently utilized for a golf simulator. Three guest bedrooms, two full baths, and a half bath give visitors their own domain with direct access to a second covered porch with a fireplace of its own.
Outdoors, stone pathways wind past a cascading rock water feature to a custom stone fire pit looking out to the Jack Nicklaus Signature golf course, Pisgah National Forest, and the Blue Ridge Parkway’s Walnut Cove Overlook. Modern infrastructure includes a whole-house generator, water filtration system, a private well and cistern serving exclusively as an independent water source for landscape irrigation, and a new HVAC system installed in 2026 with a transferable 10-year warranty. With a Membership at The Cliffs, residents enjoy an 18,000-square-foot wellness center, pools, tennis courts, a luxury spa, an award-winning clubhouse, and “The Tavern.” Minutes from the Parkway, shopping, dining, and Asheville, this estate offers high-altitude privacy, effortless hosting, and world-class amenities.
