Perched within the prestigious gates of The Cliffs at Walnut Cove, this transitional mountain masterpiece in Arden, NC, offers an unparalleled lifestyle defined by luxury and natural beauty. The residence greets guests with a striking stone-clad exterior and a grand foyer featuring soaring ceilings and elegant glass-paneled barn doors that open onto the Jack Nicklaus Signature golf course. At the heart of the home, the expansive great room showcases a contemporary linear fireplace set against a floor-to-ceiling feature wall, flanked by custom backlit shelving and framed by a massive sliding glass wall that invites the outdoors in. The gourmet kitchen is a chef’s dream, anchored by a large island and professional-grade appliances, while a sophisticated wine room with custom vertical racking serves as a stunning focal point for entertainers.
The main level is thoughtfully designed for effortless living, highlighted by a primary suite that serves as a true sanctuary, complete with dual walk-in closets and a spa-inspired bathroom featuring a freestanding soaking tub and an oversized walk-in shower enveloped in floor-to-ceiling marble. Practicality meets luxury with a spacious mudroom, a large laundry center, and an elevator providing easy access to the upper level. Upstairs, the home continues to impress with a versatile bonus room and three additional bedroom suites, each offering private baths and walk-in closets to ensure comfort for family and guests alike.
Outdoor living is elevated to an art form, featuring a sprawling sun deck and a screened porch that overlook the lush fairways of the Jack Nicklaus Signature golf course. Along with a grilling station and outdoor refrigerator - the manicured stone patio offers the perfect setting for cool mountain evenings under the stars. With a Cliffs membership, residents gain access to world-class amenities including a state-of-the-art wellness center, indoor and outdoor pools, and fine dining at The Tavern. Bordering the Pisgah National Forest and situated just minutes from the Blue Ridge Parkway and the vibrant culture of Asheville, this property represents a rare opportunity to enjoy high-altitude privacy without compromising on convenient access to premier recreation and amenities.
