About this home

This luxury mountain enclave in Arden’s premier gated community combines sophisticated French Country charm with the world-class amenities of The Cliffs at Walnut Cove. A gentle driveway and expansive brick-paver private courtyard provide a grand welcome to the home, where long-range mountain vistas are visible from nearly every room. The heart of the residence is a professional French Country kitchen featuring oak and copper accents, a separate pantry, and a sunlit breakfast room with a retractable wall that opens directly to the outdoor dining porch. On the main level, the primary suite serves as a true sanctuary with beamed ceilings, a private screened porch, and a spa-inspired bath complete with radiant heat floors, a steam shower, and a whirlpool tub. The home’s architecture is defined by soaring two-story beamed ceilings and clerestory windows that flood the space with natural light. A home elevator offers easy access to the terrace level, where hidden bookcase doorways lead to private guest quarters and a gorgeous oak wet bar. Outdoor living is equally impressive, featuring a fenced level yard, four private screened porches, and an expansive flagstone terrace framed by a stone retaining wall and a built-in gas firepit—perfect for enjoying the cool mountain air. Living in The Cliffs at Walnut Cove provides a lifestyle of unparalleled luxury. Residents enjoy access to a Jack Nicklaus Signature golf course, a state-of-the-art wellness center with indoor and outdoor pools, and miles of hiking trails that connect directly to the Blue Ridge Parkway. The community's social life centers around the elegant clubhouse and the Golf House Tavern, offering both fine and casual dining options just minutes from your front door.
