About this home

Situated within the gates of The Cliffs at Walnut Cove in the desirable Millstream Enclave, this charming mountain retreat at 41 Hidden Hills Way offers a perfect balance of intimate comfort and refined luxury. The home's exterior, featuring a timeless blend of stone and shingle, creates a welcoming presence that harmonizes with its wooded surroundings. Inside, the home unfolds into a light-filled great room where soaring vaulted ceilings and a classic stone fireplace serve as an inviting focal point. Warm wood accents and expansive windows enhance the sense of connection to the forest canopy, creating a space that feels both airy and grounded. The open-concept layout flows naturally into the kitchen and dining areas, ensuring a seamless environment for daily living and casual hosting. The main level is thoughtfully designed for convenience, featuring a peaceful primary suite and a versatile secondary bedroom that can easily serve as a home office or guest room. The living space extends effortlessly to the outdoors through a spacious screened porch, complete with its own stone fireplace for enjoying the crisp mountain air in any season. Beyond the porch, a stone patio offers a serene setting for al fresco dining or quiet evenings under the stars. On the second floor, a cozy loft sitting area overlooks the great room, leading to a private third bedroom suite. Across the hall, a reading nook leads to a substantial attic space that provides excellent storage or potential for future customization. Elevated by a thoughtful 2022 refresh, the home boasts updated paint throughout, beautifully upgraded countertops, modernized bathroom fixtures, and a suite of premium Bosch stainless steel kitchen appliances. Adding to the property's effortless appeal is its prime placement within the Millstream Enclave. Because the enclave's dedicated HOA oversees all landscaping, this home offers an attractive "Lock and Leave" lifestyle, providing ultimate peace of mind and more time to focus on the area's surrounding amenities. Members of The Cliffs at Walnut Cove enjoy an unparalleled and active lifestyle centered around an 18,000-square-foot wellness center, indoor and outdoor pools, and a luxury spa. The community is home to a Jack Nicklaus Signature golf course and "The Tavern," a vibrant social hub for fine dining and member events. This property represents a unique opportunity to enjoy a manageable, high-end sanctuary within one of Western North Carolina's most sought-after amenity-rich communities.
