About 1905 White Tree Trl

Set within The Cliffs at Walnut Cove, 1905 White Tree Trail is a contemporary custom estate completed in 2019 and designed for both dramatic entertaining and quiet mountain living. Arrive via a paved circular drive to a landscaped, private 1.24-acre corner parcel and step into a Great Room with soaring 25-foot ceilings and a wall of floor-to-ceiling glass that frames the surrounding mountain greenery. The open plan flows to an exceptional kitchen finished with custom cabinetry, a butler’s pantry, a Wolf double oven and gas cooktop, and abundant counter space for large gatherings.

A see-through fireplace creates an elegant connection between the dining room and a private office, while premium floors of marble and hardwood complement the clean contemporary detailing. The main-level primary suite is a private retreat, complete with its own fireplace, a spa-inspired bath with freestanding slipper tub, glass-enclosed shower, and dual backlit custom closets. A main-level guest suite offers privacy for visitors; upstairs, two bedrooms, a full bath with dual vanities, a sizable bonus room, and a dedicated media room expand living options. A distinctive two-story tower adds architectural character and flexible space for a den, studio, or reading nook.

Practical luxury continues with a three-car garage (~740 SF) with keypad entry, extensive storage, and room on the grounds for outdoor enhancements—pool, outdoor kitchen, or gardens—should you wish. The property benefits from city water, underground utilities, and a septic system; it sits mere minutes from the Golf House & Tavern and the Walnut Cove clubhouse. Owners gain access to The Cliffs’ championship Jack Nicklaus golf course, wellness center, pools, tennis, pickleball, and a broad trail network across the community.

This home is positioned for buyers seeking a turnkey, design-forward estate with immediate access to one of Western North Carolina’s most sought-after private communities. High-end finishes, considered architecture and a prime lot make this a standout offering in the Asheville market. Schedule a private showing to experience the scale, craftsmanship and lifestyle in person.

Neighborhood & Location

The Cliffs at Walnut Cove is a private, gated mountain community east of Asheville known for its Jack Nicklaus Signature golf course, wellness amenities, and preserved natural areas. Homes range from contemporary estates to traditional mountain residences; the community attracts homeowners seeking an active lifestyle with accessible luxury services while remaining within easy driving distance of downtown Asheville’s dining, arts and services.

Market Insights

Asheville’s overall housing market has normalized after the pandemic boom — steady demand for lifestyle and amenity-driven communities remains, while luxury inventory ($1.5M+) has softened relative to entry-level segments. The Cliffs communities maintain a distinct pool of buyers who value membership-driven living; properties that are turnkey and positioned thoughtfully tend to attract regional and national buyers. Expect a measured marketing timeline and targeted outreach: price is competitive for a move-in-ready contemporary estate with club access, and sellers should highlight membership transfer ease and recent construction. For buyers, negotiating in this tier often involves diligence around HOA/club dues and systems such as septic. Overall, this is a stable luxury opportunity in a premium submarket with continued long-term appeal.

Things to Consider

Potential Use Scenarios

  • Showcase lifestyle: professional club photography and video, highlight Great Room, kitchen, and membership amenity access
  • Obtain recent septic inspection and provide service/maintenance records to reduce buyer friction
  • Price competitively within the estimated range to capture qualified buyers quickly—consider concessions for cost of membership transfer if appropriate

Risk Factors

  • Luxury market softness could require price flexibility
  • Annual HOA and club dues may deter some buyers unfamiliar with Cliffs costs
  • Septic vs. municipal sewer may require upgrades for future expansion

Buyers should conduct independent due diligence before making any purchase decisions.
