Cottages of Bearwood

Cottages of Bearwood at a glance

Cottages of Bearwood is a brand-new single-family neighborhood by DRB Homes in Mount Pleasant, Maury County, Tennessee, sitting off Highway 43 less than 10 miles south of Columbia. The community held its ribbon cutting on June 4, 2026, so it is at the very start of its sales life — homes are actively selling, with quick move-in homes available alongside plans you can still personalize. The streets inside the community include Black Bear Drive and Canaan Road. For a relocating or first-time buyer who wants new construction within easy reach of Columbia and the rest of Maury County, this is one of the newer single-family options we can walk you through.

What you get here is modern single-family construction: DRB's plans run from three to six bedrooms, roughly 2,200 to 3,000-plus finished square feet depending on the floor plan, with pricing starting at $334,999 at the time these figures were published. Because it is a single-builder community at launch, the homes share a consistent design language — flex spaces, studies, lofts, and single-level living options among them. Buyers who land here tend to be people who want a turnkey new home with a builder warranty and current floor plans, in a smaller Maury County town that still commutes comfortably to Columbia. We pull live numbers and current availability for you before you ever write an offer.

Who builds in Cottages of Bearwood

Cottages of Bearwood is built by DRB Homes, which carries the whole community at this stage — so the floor plans, finishes, and build process are consistent from one home to the next. DRB Homes is one of the largest private homebuilders in the country, with more than 40 years of building experience, and in April 2025 Brightland Homes was consolidated under the DRB Group, broadening the team behind these communities. For a buyer, a single experienced builder at launch usually means a clearer, more predictable process: one set of plans to compare, one warranty, one design and selections path.

Because we tour DRB and other new-construction communities across the region regularly, we can help you read the plan lineup, compare what is offered here against other Maury County options, and understand where this community sits relative to your budget and timeline. DRB's floor plans at Cottages of Bearwood include the Bedford, Greenwich, Juniper, Lassiter, and Avondale. We always recommend confirming the current plan availability and standard features directly on DRB's official community page, since builders rotate plans and inventory as a community sells through.

Homes & floor plans

Homes at Cottages of Bearwood are single-family, with three-to-six-bedroom plans and roughly 2,200 to 3,000-plus finished square feet that varies by floor plan. Pricing started at $334,999 when these figures were published. DRB's plans here — the Bedford, Greenwich, Juniper, Lassiter, and Avondale — give you a range to compare, and the community offers both quick move-in homes for buyers on a tighter timeline and plans you can still build and personalize.

On features, DRB leans into modern home designs with high-end finishes, and the plans include flexible square footage that buyers consistently ask us about: dedicated studies, lofts, flex spaces, and single-level living options for households that want to skip the stairs. The right plan depends on how you actually live — whether you need a main-floor primary suite, a work-from-home study, or a loft for the kids — so the best next step is to look at the official DRB plan pages with us and match a layout to your list. We will pull the current standard features and any options sheet so you know exactly what is and is not included.

Amenities & community life

At this early stage, the standout features at Cottages of Bearwood live inside the homes themselves: modern designs and high-end finishes, with flexible layouts built around studies, lofts, flex spaces, and single-level living options. That mix gives day-to-day life some range — a quiet study or home office, a loft that flexes between a play space and a media room, and main-level living for buyers who want everything on one floor.

Because the community just launched with its June 2026 ribbon cutting, community-wide amenity details are still coming into focus. Rather than guess, we will confirm directly with DRB which shared amenities, common areas, and HOA-maintained features are planned or in place, and share the current HOA documents with you so there are no surprises. If amenities matter to your decision, tell us what you are looking for and we will get you the most current information from the builder.

Location, access & schools

Cottages of Bearwood is in Mount Pleasant, in the southern part of Maury County, off Highway 43 and less than 10 miles from Columbia — the county seat and the area's main hub for shopping, dining, and services. That puts you in a smaller Tennessee town with a quick, straightforward drive to Columbia's larger amenities, while keeping the rest of Maury County and the broader Middle Tennessee region within reach. The community is in Mount Pleasant, TN 38474, with homes along Black Bear Drive and Canaan Road. If commute time is a factor for you, send us your work or anchor addresses and we will run real drive times from the community.

Cottages of Bearwood is served by Maury County Public Schools. The zoned schools are Mt. Pleasant Elementary School, Mt. Pleasant Middle School, and Mt. Pleasant High School. School zoning and boundaries can change, so we always recommend confirming current assignments with Maury County Public Schools before you buy — we are glad to help you verify the zoning for a specific homesite.

What to verify before you buy

Because Cottages of Bearwood just launched, several details move week to week — so confirm the current numbers with us before you write an offer. That means live pricing and any active promotions (DRB advertised up to $15,000 in Flex Cash through 6/30/2026, and the community is noted as USDA-eligible for financing — both worth verifying against your situation and timeline), the current phase and which homesites and quick move-in homes are actually available, the standard features and options for the plan you want, and the HOA: what it covers, what it costs, and what the recorded documents say.

We will also help you confirm lot details, school zoning for a specific homesite, and the full cost picture before any earnest money changes hands. Builders update plans, pricing, and inventory continuously as a community sells through, which is exactly why we pull live figures for you rather than relying on a number you saw online. Promotions like Flex Cash and financing programs such as USDA eligibility come with their own terms and deadlines, so let us help you verify what currently applies.
