Contact Cher Rhoades @ Oak & Key Realty 605.639.1158 for your Private Tour! Welcome to 19964 Merriam Loop, Set on 16.85 private acres above Spearfish, this is the kind of home you feel before you fully understand it. The drive in sets the tone winding through the land, the Black Hills rising in every direction, the log and stone entry coming into view like an arrival that was always meant to happen. Inside, nearly 8,0000 square feet unfolds with the quiet confidence of a home that was never rushed. The two-story great room draws you in a hand-laid Rumford stone fireplace anchoring the space, floor-to-ceiling windows turning the Black Hills into the backdrop of your daily life. Knotty alder built-ins, custom finishes, craftsmanship that you notice without being able to stop noticing it. The kitchen is where mornings begin slowly and evenings stretch long. A commercial gas stove, pot filler, hidden walk-in pantry, and an oversized granite bar and a wall of windows that slides fully open, so the breeze off the hills becomes part of every meal. Then there is the basketball court. Full Size half court, indoors, all yours. The kind of amenity that makes guests go quiet for a moment before they start smiling. Below, the lower level opens completely through an overhead glass door a private in-ground heated pool waiting just beyond the threshold, the sky wide above it, the hills uninterrupted in every direction. This is where summers live. Where the line between inside and outside stops mattering. Six bedrooms. Six and a half baths. A 4+ car garage. Nearly 17 acres of Black Hills land. And the rare, certain feeling that you have found exactly what you were looking for.
