Enjoy easy indoor/outdoor living in this spa-like retreat in the coveted Cove Park enclave of The Cliffs at Walnut Cove. Centered around a striking Taj Mahal leathered quartz island, the open layout connects the kitchen, dining, and living areas, all bathed in natural light. A home office sits off the entry, and the main-level primary suite offers peaceful luxury. Upstairs are two ensuite bedrooms, a spacious den, and generous storage. Step through the screened porch into a private, landscaped oasis featuring a lagoon-style saltwater pool crafted from Tennessee fieldstone, with a waterfall and self-cleaning system. A stone fireplace and wooden pavilion offer year-round comfort and entertaining. The gated yard backs to protected greenspace and showcases low-maintenance perennials and ornamental trees for four-season beauty. With a neutral palette and timeless finishes, this home is a serene canvas for your personal style.
