Sought-after homes with mountain views
“Walnut Cove is popular for being one of the prestigious Cliffs communities with very high-end homes,” says Realtor Nikki Freeman at The Redbud Group. Homes here are designed in visual harmony with their awe-inspiring environment. Quiet drives curl off the neighborhood's main roads in twisting, wooded coils. Local architects and builders have fashioned residences that appear custom in their intricate details but appeal to a broad spectrum of buyers. The unique and widely desirable dwellings overlook the community golf course or nestle in the quiet woods. Many open up to stunning, blue-misted mountain views.
Home values at The Cliffs at Walnut Cove start around $500,000 and reach $5 million. Asheville buyers can find three-bedroom townhomes near the gated entrance within the $500,000 range or a comfortable cottage in the woods for $1 million. Palatial homes with steeply pitched roofs and decorative timbering value at nearly $2 million. Lavish estates with large layouts and elaborate landscaping top off around $5 million. Buyers interested in building a custom residence can purchase a lot in an enchanting Walnut Cove enclave from $200,000 to over $1 million. Listings here tend to sit on the market for a month or two, but buyers will want to keep an eye on this one-of-a-kind neighborhood as prices continue to rise.
Dual-language program at Avery's Creek
Walnut Cove students attend Buncombe County Schools and there are several located within a few mile’s distance. Avery's Creek Elementary, or ACES, is closest to town, settled on a quiet campus with sprawling mountain views. Diversity is a point of pride at Avery's Creek, ranking within the top 12% in the state. Families love the school's unique dual language program, which integrates bilingual learning into the curriculum, from kindergarten through 4th grade.
Hike, exercise and golf
Locals have plenty of opportunities to enjoy the outdoors in Walnut Creek. Miles of walking trails are carved into this community's abundant landscapes. Scenic footpaths travel past cascading waterfalls and fields sprinkled with brilliant wildflowers. Residents take to hiking and cycling along winding trails hedged with dense mountain laurel. For indoor relaxation, Walnut Creek locals head to the massive Wellness Complex with facilities that will give your typical fitness regimen a boost. From yoga and aquatics classes to spa services and personal training, the 18,000-square-foot state-of-the-art center has something for everyone.
"The Cliffs are well-known for their spectacular golf communities," Realtor Freeman notes. Walnut Cove is a golf town, and the sprawling course has been nationally recognized for its scenic grounds. The Jack Nicklaus Signature Golf Course spreads over several rolling acres of former farmland. Some holes extend into woodland vegetation near babbling mountain streams. Walnut Cove's esteemed course's plush fairways are currently ranked top 30 in the state by Golf Digest.
Groceries, dining and getting around the area
Locals travel eastward to the airport area for errands and grocery pickups. A quick 15-minute ride on Interstate 26 will route you to the large retail plazas lining Airport Road. In Walnut Cove, you're also about 15 minutes from the dining and shopping at Biltmore Park. In town, residents enjoy fine dining at The Tavern. The English-style dining room's covered patio is a popular gathering place for casual brunches and blissful happy hours. When you're ready to venture out of this lovely community, head 15 miles north to spend a day exploring the outpouring of history and culture in downtown Asheville. At the end of the evening, locals retreat home to the natural rural beauty of their peaceful sanctuaries. Vast mountain landscapes and ornate old-world homes await in this stunning south Asheville community. Come home to the Cliffs at Walnut Cove.
