There is no better way to get a glimpse of luxury mountain living than to experience it for yourself at Walker's Ridge in the heart of the North Carolina High Country.

Nestled in the mountainside of the distinctive Lodges of Eagles Nest community, Walker's Ridge is ideally located on the front side of the mountain between the main gate (only minutes from the charming town of Banner Elk) and the Great Camp, the heart of the community featuring some of Eagles Nest most popular amenities.

Walker's Ridge, a stunning, newly built, luxury mountain home blends elegance and comfort in over 3,700 sq. ft. of heated and cooled living space and nearly 1,400 sq. ft. of deck and covered porches. An open-concept main level seamlessly blends the roomy living area, an expanded dining space, and kitchen into a warm, inviting, and spacious area for gathering with family and friends. The great room features a stacked-stone gas fireplace, a tongue-and-groove vaulted ceiling, and floor-to-ceiling windows providing year-round, layered mountain views, including Grandfather Mountain. Built for entertaining and preparing meals together, the gourmet kitchen is well-equipped with abundant cabinetry, quartz countertops, a large island with seating for four, a six-burner gas range, microwave, separate beverage and wine cooler, and a convenient coffee station. Whether you are a seasoned espresso enthusiast or simply love sipping your morning cup, coffee lovers will enjoy the café appliances including a Keurig Pod & Carafe Coffee Maker (brew a cup or a carafe with ground coffee or K-cups), French press, Moka pot, bean grinder, milk frother, and kettle. So, grab your beans and turn your morning routine into a delightful experience - no trips or tips required! The kitchen is fully stocked with serving dishes, utensils, basic spices, and small appliances (air fryer, Instant Pot, slow cooker, rice cooker, handheld mixer, blender, and waffle maker). Share meals together at the live edge dining table with seating for eight, or step outdoors onto the covered deck complete with sofa, gas fireplace, Smart TV, dining table, and a gas grill. Whether you are enjoying the cozy warmth of the great room fireplace, preparing a meal in the spacious kitchen, or taking in the beauty of the mountains from the deck, this open-concept floor plan offers the perfect blend of luxury, comfort, and function.

With dual living areas, Walker's Ridge has ample space to bring family and friends together or spread out and enjoy a quiet moment of relaxation. The lower-level den is thoughtfully designed for leisure and entertainment with a wet bar, beverage and wine cooler, a 75-inch Samsung Smart TV, Blu-ray player, and a library of movies and books for all ages.

Featuring three king ensuites and a bunk room, the versatility of Walker's Ridge is perfect for a large family or families and friends to stay together in complete comfort and privacy. Wake up each morning to picturesque views from the main-level primary ensuite and enjoy the elegant king canopy bed, Smart TV, and private deck access with chaise lounges. The luxurious ensuite bathroom features dual quartz vanities, walk-in shower, and a fabulous free-standing soaking tub.

Mountain vistas are seen from almost every room in the home and the lower-level bedrooms are no exception. Both ensuites offer king beds with luxury mattresses and Smart TVs. The primary ensuite bathroom features a soaking tub, walk-in shower, and dual quartz vanities. The bunk room sleeps six with queen-over-queen and twin-over-twin bunks, all with luxury mattresses. (A bathroom with a walk-in shower is conveniently located across the hall.)

Kids of all ages get ready for hours of fun in the separate, heated and cooled, game room featuring a PAC-MAN arcade, foosball and air hockey tables, PS5, and a poker table. We have something special for the “littles” too! Look for the magical playhouse tucked away in a secret nook under the stairs.

In addition to a mudroom and laundry room, printer and high-speed internet, and three gas fireplaces (great room and two outdoors), Walker's Ridge includes a phone line for emergencies and eight Smart TVs with Hulu Live TV, Disney+, and ESPN+ streaming services. There is a flat gravel parking area for 3-4 cars with only one step to enter the main floor for easy access.

One of the home's most captivating features is the outdoor space. The decks, large slate firepit patio, and private hot tub all effortlessly extend the living area to the great outdoors. Unwind and rejuvenate amidst the wonder of nature in the hot tub and end the day by firelight, gathered under the stars with family and friends.
