The sale represents the most expensive closing of a single family residence in The Cliffs at Walnut Cove, and it is also within the top five highest residential closings in Buncombe County. Furthermore, and even more impressive, the sale represents the highest closing of any single family residence in one of the seven private, luxury Cliffs communities located in North Carolina and South Carolina.

The custom built, mountaintop home—8 Deer Grass Court—was completed in 2021 by Glenwood Custom Builders. Featured in Carolina Home + Garden magazine, the 7,110 square-foot home is an architectural wonder nestled atop Chestnut Mountain.

Intentionally constructed to be immersive with the natural landscape, the home is filled with connecting, large windows and uses slender steel architecture to intentionally create a seamless visual experience. The result is an elegant design with a treehouse-like effect and a modern aesthetic with breathtaking views from one side of the house to the other.
