About this home

Nestled within the gates of The Cliffs at Walnut Cove, this masterfully crafted mountain estate offers an unparalleled lifestyle of rustic elegance and refined comfort. The residence immediately impresses with its striking architectural silhouette, featuring a harmonious blend of heavy timber, stone, and cedar shakes that mirror the natural splendor of its Arden, North Carolina surroundings.

Upon entering, the expansive great room serves as a breathtaking centerpiece, defined by soaring vaulted ceilings anchored by massive exposed beams and a floor-to-ceiling stone fireplace that commands attention. Walls of oversized windows frame tranquil views of the lush landscape while bathing the interiors in soft, natural light. This seamless integration of the outdoors continues into the gourmet kitchen - a chef’s sanctuary outfitted with furniture-grade cabinetry, sprawling granite countertops, and professional-grade appliances. A dedicated beverage center and a large central island make this space as functional for intimate morning coffee as it is for grand-scale entertaining. The primary suite is a private retreat designed for ultimate relaxation, offering its own stacked-stone fireplace and direct access to the expansive outdoor spaces. Throughout the home, the attention to detail is evident, from the rich hardwood flooring to the custom built-ins and exquisite millwork.

The property’s outdoor living areas are truly extraordinary, designed to take full advantage of the community's high-altitude privacy. A massive screened-in terrace provides a year-round sanctuary, complete with a rugged stone fireplace, a bespoke bar, and ample space for lounging or gaming. Just beyond, the meticulously landscaped grounds feature a tiered stone waterfall and pond, creating a rhythmic soundtrack for evenings spent around the built-in stone fire pit.

Membership at The Cliffs at Walnut Cove grants access to a world-class amenity suite, including a Jack Nicklaus Signature golf course, a sprawling state-of-the-art Wellness Center with indoor and outdoor pools, and the social heartbeat of the community, "The Tavern." Located just minutes from the Blue Ridge Parkway and the vibrant cultural scene of Asheville, this estate represents the pinnacle of luxury living in the Blue Ridge Mountains. An adjoining lot is available for purchase but not included in the price.

A rough rule — actual qualification depends on your full debt picture, credit, and the lender. John can introduce you to lenders he trusts.

Numbers are a directional estimate. Actual monthly cost varies by lender, credit, taxes assessed at closing, and insurance carrier. This is not a loan offer or pre-approval.
