Welcome to this stunning custom-built 3-bedroom, 2-bath brick ranch nestled on nearly an acre in a peaceful, one-street neighborhood with no HOA; in the heart of Bear. This home offers an ideal blend of charm and functionality with real hardwood floors throughout, a spacious kitchen featuring ample cabinetry, a built-in pantry, breakfast bar, and a convenient built-in computer/desk workspace. The kitchen flows seamlessly into the cozy family room, complete with a brick hearth fireplace and wood stove insert. The owners suite includes its own private bath and a super convenient laundry chute. Downstairs, the full unfinished basement with walkout, provides a large recreation area with a second wood stove set against a beautiful stone wall, a bonus room, a large cedar closet, and a walkout workshop, perfect for projects or storage. Outdoor living shines here with a massive screened-in porch overlooking a park-like backyard, a cozy front patio, a huge fire pit area for entertaining, and outbuildings to store all your extras. The 2-car attached garage offers custom built-in shelving and recently replaced insulated garage doors and openers. The roof was installed in 2020 and a full gutter guard system, and the windows were replaced over the last couple years. Located just off Route 1 with easy access to major roads like RT 40 and I-95, this warm and welcoming home is ready to be your forever home!
