About this home

Positioned just off the sixth green of the Jack Nicklaus Signature Golf Course in The Cliffs at Walnut Cove, 74 Walnut Valley Parkway presents one of the community’s few remaining golf-course homesite opportunities. This approximately 0.93-acre parcel offers a gentle, build-friendly slope designed to capture nearby and long-range mountain views, with the Blue Ridge Parkway visible in the distance. Its location balances privacy and convenience—near the clubhouse, wellness complex, and the community’s main gate. Bordering the Pisgah National Forest and only minutes from the Blue Ridge Parkway, the setting provides a peaceful mountain retreat while remaining a short drive from downtown Asheville’s acclaimed dining, arts, and cultural scene. Adding to the distinction of this location, The Cliffs at Walnut Cove is host to the inaugural Biltmore Championship Asheville, a PGA TOUR FedExCup Fall event. As Asheville’s first PGA TOUR event in more than 80 years, the championship places Walnut Cove on a national stage and highlights the exceptional caliber of its Jack Nicklaus Signature course. Available with the purchase are professionally prepared architectural plans for a custom Mountain Modern residence, created specifically for this homesite and its topography. The proposed plan is not included as constructed improvements or construction costs, but offers a significant head start toward creating a refined mountain retreat. The design envisions expansive main-level living with a dramatic foyer, vaulted great room, chef’s kitchen with oversized island and walk-in pantry, gallery-style transition to private living areas, dedicated study, and a luxurious owner’s suite with dual walk-in closets and spa-inspired bath. Designed for entertaining and indoor-outdoor living, the plan also features an approximately 512-square-foot covered lanai with outdoor fireplace and an optional outdoor kitchen, extending the living experience into the surrounding mountain landscape. A Club membership at The Cliffs is available for purchase with this property, subject to Club membership terms and approval. Membership provides access to all seven Cliffs communities and their respective amenities, including championship golf, dining, wellness and fitness facilities, indoor and outdoor pools, tennis and pickleball, spa services, social events, and outdoor recreation opportunities. This offering includes the homesite and architectural plans only; it does not include construction of the proposed residence. An exceptional opportunity to avoid years of preliminary planning and begin creating a distinctive home within one of Asheville’s premier private golf and wellness communities. A Club membership at The Cliffs is available for purchase with this property giving you access to all seven communities.
