3368 Regalwoods Dr - Owner Bebe Forehand
Bebe Forehand, a native of Belgium, has been a popular Northcrest fixture for 47 years. Her four-bedroom, three-bath, split-level home is one of only a few ith this unusual floorplan in Northcrest.

Bebe's estranged (very strange, she says) architect ex-husband did not design the home - but did add a few custom features after the home was built: a walk-in closet and dressing room off the master bedroom, and the huge stone fireplace (which replaced one of the soaring two-story windows in the living room). He also credited with designing our own Northcrest Swim & Tennis Club facility.

This home features an unusual and very open floorplan with a number of unique mid-century features: a double staircase leading from the entryway to the bedrooms upstairs and the living room below, the second-level hallway open to the living room below, and towering floor-to-ceiling windows in the living room. The lower level features several rooms and a kitchenette - and since the children have long since left the nest, it makes a perfect "mother-in-law" suite.

Bebe has installed new hardwood floors in the foyer and kitchen, and says that if she were 30 years younger, she would probably replace the living room’s wall-to-wall carpeting with hardwoods to match.

Visitors to Bebe’s home often comment that is reminds them of the “Brady Bunch” house.
