About this home

Designed to elevate both quiet daily routines and effortless hosting, 3 Bear Flower presents an exceptional sanctuary within The Cliffs at Walnut Cove. Throughout the residence, 10-foot ceilings, detailed crown molding, and rich, dark-stained wide-plank oak flooring weave together light-filled spaces with an easy, natural rhythm. In the great room, walls of windows capture sweeping mountain views, anchored by rich timber beams and an inviting fireplace flanked by custom built-in cabinetry. Outdoor living unfolds on the covered patio under a warm wood-toned ceiling, featuring an integrated stone fireplace and grill framed by professionally landscaped grounds, where mature evergreens provide natural privacy. At the heart of the home, the gourmet kitchen is anchored by a large center island and outfitted with a suite of premium Thermador appliances. A light-filled breakfast nook and an adjacent dedicated dining room bring people together effortlessly, while a laundry room, pocket office, and a main-level powder room add thoughtful everyday functionality. The main-level primary suite serves as a quiet sanctuary, where floor-to-ceiling windows flood the room with natural light and sweeping vistas. Dual walk-in closets feature sliding barn doors, with one thoughtfully appointed with a custom illuminated dressing vanity. In the primary bath, floating double vanities, marble tile finishes, a zero-entry shower, and a freestanding Victoria + Albert soaking tub set against sunlit windows combine refined sophistication with peaceful relaxation. The stairwell rises to a central sitting room, where glass French doors transition out to an arched covered balcony. The adjacent upper-level media room and lounge faces northwest to maximize grand mountain views, complete with a wet bar and an integrated wine and beverage cooler. Three spacious guest suites, each complete with a beautifully finished bathroom, round out an exceptional mountain residence designed to feel instantly welcoming. Beyond the estate, an available membership grants access to a world-class lifestyle featuring a Jack Nicklaus Signature golf course, a state-of-the-art wellness center and spa, and fine dining at The Tavern.
