The one with storybook character. From the moment it appears along the private streets of Bearpath, this homestops you. The turret, the arched entry, the stone and brick facade framed by gas lanterns carry the quiet grandeur ofsomething out of a fairy tale, and the moment you step inside, the feeling only deepens. Visitors call it a return toelegance: a warmth that greets you at the door and follows you through every room, from the soaring 20-foot greatroom to the lower-level bedrooms, each framed by its own private view.Spanning over 8,000 square feet on a half-acre Drake Pond lot, this architect-designed custom home was extensivelyrebuilt in 2009 and thoughtfully elevated over the past decade. Hand-scraped walnut floors, custom millwork and crownmoldings, and curated stone surfaces including quartzite, marble, granite, and onyx speak to a standard of finish rarelyencountered. The gourmet kitchen with copper and leather range hood, dual refrigerators, and dual dishwashers flowsinto spaces designed for both quiet evenings and gracious entertaining.For the golf enthusiast, this address is unmatched. A custom below-grade golf simulator room sits beneath anexpanded 4-stall heated garage, while the Bearpath clubhouse, championship golf, driving range, pool, and tennis aredirectly across the street.The primary suite is a true retreat with marble and quartzite finishes, a walk-in shower, and a luxurious closet withdedicated laundry. The powder room's hand-crafted stars ceiling and onyx counter are the kind of details guestsremember. Gas lanterns frame a front entry that announces arrival before you ever reach the door.Recent improvements include whole-home Renewal by Andersen windows, two new Carrier HVAC systems, an NTItankless water heater with complete recirculating system, new air exchangers, and a 50-year transferrable roofwarranty. The Brazilian Ipe deck is plumbed with natural gas. Smart home infrastructure is fully in place.This is not a home that can be recreated. It is, in every sense, 1 of 1.
