Situated in Arden with the Pisgah National Forest as your backdrop, this community offers a rare combination of high-altitude privacy and effortless access to the Blue Ridge Parkway and the vibrant culture of nearby Asheville. With a membership, residents can enjoy a world-class lifestyle centered around an 18,000-square-foot wellness center featuring indoor and outdoor pools, tennis courts, and a luxury spa. The community's crown jewel is the Jack Nicklaus Signature golf course—the only one of its kind in the region—which is complemented by an award-winning clubhouse and "The Tavern," a social hub for fine dining and member events. Commanding a premier position directly on the fairway, this property offers spectacular views of the manicured greens and rolling mountain vistas. The home itself is a masterpiece of mountain transitional design and precision, boasting 6,640 square feet of heated living area across two meticulously planned levels. The architectural style harmoniously blends rustic natural textures with sleek, modern lines, utilizing a sophisticated palette of stone, timber, and expansive glass to reflect the beauty of the surrounding Blue Ridge landscape. Guests are greeted by a grand entry that flows seamlessly into an expansive living room anchored by a contemporary fireplace and a stunning wall of glass overlooking the lush landscape. Culinary enthusiasts will marvel at the gourmet kitchen, featuring professional-grade appliances, a massive island, and a dedicated wine room designed for the connoisseur. The main level is designed for effortless living and entertaining, offering a sophisticated formal dining room, a private library with custom built-ins, and a magnificent primary bedroom suite that serves as a sanctuary of comfort. Outdoor living is elevated to an art form with unenclosed spaces designed to take full advantage of the golf course frontage. Whether you are hosting a summer gathering on the expansive patio, relaxing on the deck, or enjoying a quiet morning on the covered porch, the connection to nature and the serene fairways is ever-present. Retreat to the second floor to find additional bedroom suites, a dedicated club room with a theater for cinematic experiences, and a massive future bonus room that offers endless customization possibilities.
