In 1927, August Busch Sr. and renowned architect Edward Bakewell established the legendary Bridlespur Hunt Club on Squires Lane, creating what became the center of St. Louis equestrian society for decades. Long before Huntleigh became synonymous with estate living, this land hosted formal fox hunts, horseback riders crossing the rolling countryside, and gatherings of some of the most influential families in the region. Even the original Bridlespur steeplechase course once stretched across the land where Plaza Frontenac stands today.

Nearly 100 years later, 1 Squires Lane remains one of the most storied properties in Huntleigh.

We are incredibly honored to have secured this iconic estate completely off market for our clients turned friends.

The most exceptional properties rarely become public opportunities. Access, relationships, trust, and deep market knowledge create a level of opportunity that simply cannot be replicated online. That remains one of the defining advantages of working with The Wells Michael Collective.

Golden Tempo never chased it. Sat back. Let the race come to him. 🏆🐎

At Kentucky Derby, under the twin spires at Churchill Downs, it was one move. From last to first. Clean. Final.

Trained by Cherie DeVaux, making history as the first woman to win it. Not given. Taken.

No wasted motion. No forcing it. Position, patience, conviction when the opening shows.

It’s the same principle we live by at The Wells + Michael Collective. We don’t chase attention. We create demand, control the moment, and deliver when it matters.

That’s how you separate.

"We had a wonderful time working with Justin and Koel. Justin is incredibly knowledgeable and made me feel confident in every decision we made in buying our first house. It was very clear that Koel did a lot of research on the houses he showed us and was always very quick to respond to questions and get back to us with information. Thanks guys!" says Kate on Google

Most listings go live and wait to be discovered.
We don’t wait. We build pressure before the door ever opens.

The difference is simple, but almost no one executes it at a high level. While others depend on exposure and hope the right buyer stumbles across it, we engineer demand with intention. Positioning, timing, controlled access, and messaging that makes the right buyers feel like they have to move.

Every home we represent gets its own strategy. Not a version of something we used last month. Not a recycled launch plan. A fully thought-out approach built around that specific property and the exact buyer pool it deserves.

What happens when you do that right?

38 groups through on the first day of showings.
Less than 12 hours on the public market.
A standout offer the sellers didn’t hesitate to accept.

That kind of response isn’t luck. It’s created. It’s how we achieved #1 in production in Clayton in 2025 over all St. Louis agents, even large groups.

We are not in the business of just selling homes. We are in the business of controlling outcomes and setting records that raise the bar for every client we represent.

There’s a difference between being listed and being wanted.

🥇Another record, and this one changes the landscape.

Highest price per square foot ever achieved in Fienup Farms history.

16929 Lake Meadow, Chesterfield
Listed for $1,950,000 - SOLD $2,210,000

That number is not just a win for one seller. It lifts the ceiling for every homeowner in Fienup Farms and raises the standard across Chesterfield.

A new benchmark has been set.

While others rely on exposure, we create demand.
Strategy. Positioning. Ex*****on. These records are being achieved by The Wells + Michael Collective. No other agent can claim this level of performance across St. Louis County.

🏆Highest resale price per square foot ever recorded in Town and Country.
🏆 #1 in production in Clayton in 2025.
🏆 #1 at Dielmann Sotheby’s in 2025.

This is not about recognition. It is about results.

Who you hire shapes your outcome.

In Wardenburg Farms, this fully build ready homesite paired with Freeman Homes opens the door to something rarely available in the Chesterfield area. Surrounded by homes that command exceptional valuations, this is a setting where scale, design, and finish are not only supported, they are expected.

Freeman Homes is a name that carries weight. Deep roots in St. Louis, a portfolio of highly recognizable residences, and a track record with discerning and high profile clientele who understand the difference between building a house and creating something that holds long term architectural and financial relevance. The level of ex*****on is proven, consistent, and intentional.

The land is ready. The location offers privacy without sacrificing convenience, just minutes to highway access and everything Chesterfield Valley has to offer.

Refine a plan or start from the ground up. Either way, this is a chance to build exactly what you want, exactly how it should be done.

The Wells + Michael Collective is known for handling transactions that demand discretion, precision, and a higher level of strategy.

This off market sale is a clear example of why many sellers choose a quieter, more controlled approach. Privacy is protected. Disruption is limited. Value is positioned thoughtfully rather than tested publicly.

Off market exposure allows a home to remain rare, not overworked. It creates leverage, attracts the right audience, and often produces stronger outcomes without the noise that comes with a traditional launch.

For buyers, this is where access truly matters. We connect our clients to exceptional opportunities that never reach the open market. Homes most buyers never realize were available.

We’re grateful for the trust placed in us and proud to be the #1 Top Producing group at Dielmann Sotheby’s International Realty.

If you’re considering selling and value discretion, or buying and want access beyond what’s public, reach out on here or through our website in our bio.
