Set within Southridge at The Cliffs at Walnut Cove, 96 Split Rock rests on a rare, gently sloping 0.85-acre homesite with sweeping long-range mountain views.
Timeless architecture, warm natural materials, and generous indoor-outdoor living come together in a floor plan created for quiet daily life and effortless entertaining.
The arrival
Soaring timber ceilings create an unbroken view through the heart of the home before coming to rest on the layered Blue Ridge Mountains.
The main level
The primary suite, kitchen, dining area, great room, screened outdoor living room, laundry, and everyday necessities are thoughtfully connected.
The great room
An entire wall of folding glass transforms the great room and covered terrace into one seamless living space beneath soaring vaulted ceilings.
Every season has a favorite seat.
The rooms within
The interior story carries the architecture forward through warm white oak, natural stone, quiet color, tailored lighting, and rooms shaped around the way each day unfolds.








A home considered in layers
Rift-sawn white oak cabinetry, Taj Mahal quartzite, an oversized island, and a dedicated prep kitchen keep the heart of the home open and connected.
A quiet main-level wing brings together mountain views, a restorative bath, generous dressing space, and convenient access to the laundry.
A family room, built-in bar, glass wine gallery, flexible wellness studio, and guest suites create a relaxed destination of its own.
A screened porch with a wood-burning fireplace extends the vaulted architecture outdoors for year-round mountain living.
