Hilary Farnum-Fasth Completes Full-Circle Career Moment With Closing in Golden Oak at Walt Disney World Resort

Santa Rosa Beach, Florida, December 4, 2025 (Newswire.com) - Hilary Farnum-Fasth, Founder and Owner of Corcoran Reverie and one of Florida's top luxury real estate professionals, is celebrating a career moment that reconnects her to the organization that shaped her earliest professional standards: The Walt Disney Company.

Long before building a nearly 30-year career in real estate, Farnum-Fasth began her professional journey in the Disney College Program from 1995-1997, where she became the first-ever recipient of the Partners in Excellence Award. Reserved for fewer than two percent of Disney Cast Members, the award recognized those who exemplified the company's highest pillars of guest satisfaction, cast excellence, and operational performance. The honor, presented with a replica of the iconic "Partners" statue of Walt Disney and Mickey Mouse, set a benchmark that would define her leadership philosophy for decades.

"Disney was the place that taught me what excellence feels like when it's brought to life," Farnum-Fasth said. "It was never just about a role-it was about creating experiences with intention and elevating every detail. Those lessons became the foundation of my career."

Today, those early principles of hospitality, discipline, and experience-building are foundational to Corcoran Reverie's culture and its reputation across Florida and Greater Nashville. The significance of this legacy was underscored this week as Farnum-Fasth closed on a residence at 10143 Mattraw Place in Golden Oak at Walt Disney World Resort, the company's flagship luxury residential community, for $6.850 million. Golden Oak represents the pinnacle of residential design and curated living within the Disney portfolio, known for its concierge services, architectural distinction, and unmatched proximity to the world-renowned theme parks.

"Closing a home in Golden Oak holds significance well beyond the sale," she added. "It represents a full-circle moment - returning to the place that shaped my standards and where I first felt the magic in creating something extraordinary. The foundation Disney gave me continues to guide every decision I make, echoing the belief that wonder isn't imagined - it's created."

The milestone highlights the enduring impact of Disney's culture on Farnum-Fasth's professional path and showcases the influence of those early years on her continued leadership within the luxury real estate industry.
