Modern Cliffs Estate – 6,094 SF, 1.24 Acres, Club Access
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.

A factual market snapshot around 1905 White Tree Trl.
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.
