Whitegate properties of this caliber and pristine condition are rare. This extensively reimagined single-story custom home on a private two-thirds-acre lot along a quiet stretch of North Bear Creek Drive offers over $150,000 in curated improvements completed in consultation with Anna Rode Designs. This luxury property is genuinely move-in ready and offers the feel of a private resort.
Offering 3,658 square feet, 5 bedrooms, and 5 bathrooms, the home features a fully remodeled chef’s kitchen, pool and spa, RV and boat parking, and the privacy, functionality, and level of finish that Whitegate buyers rarely find in one property.

The backyard truly delivers a resort-style experience with a spacious pool and spa, expansive decking, covered patio, professionally redesigned landscaping, and exceptional privacy. A dedicated poolside bathroom with changing area adds convenience for entertaining and outdoor living.
Recent improvements include a remodeled kitchen, pantry, guest suite, bonus room, powder bath, hallway, laundry room, and poolside bathroom; new carpeting (2026); exterior repainting (2026); new well pump, water heater, water softener, and reverse osmosis system; upgraded ADT security system with Google Nest cameras; updated electrical switches and covers throughout; and upgraded landscaping and irrigation.
