Property Description

A distinctive offering where design, location and performative upgrades come together seamlessly. One of the original modern homes in Winter Park, this iconic residence has been thoughtfully reimagined through a designer-led renovation that emphasizes clean lines, natural light, easy maintenance and high durability. The result is a bright, refined space that balances architectural character with modern comfort. A flexible two-level layout offers main living areas on the first floor, complemented by an upper-level studio or retreat space with optional deck access, ideal for today’s lifestyle. Extensively improved with over $260,000 in recent upgrades, the home was enhanced with durability and efficiency in mind. Major improvements include a commercial-grade TPO roofing system with advanced drainage and a 20-year warranty completed in 2024, as well as hurricane-impact aluminum sliders all around with large missile-rated glass and enduring waterproofing. Additional features such as a white reflective roof, whole-house surge protection, updated electrical components, and a new code-compliant deck railing further elevate the home’s long-term value and performance. The outdoor spaces have been equally curated, with mid-century-inspired landscaping designed for beauty and ease of maintenance. Palms, agave and drought-tolerant plantings create a clean, modern aesthetic, while redesigned yard spaces enhance openness and usability. A professionally landscaped east yard, low-maintenance turf on the west side, a five-zone irrigation system, and private well irrigation contribute to a thoughtfully executed exterior environment. An expanded driveway provides ample parking, and outdoor lighting enhances ambiance and function. Just moments from desirable Park Avenue, this architecturally significant modern residence is ideally in one of Winter Park’s sought-after neighborhoods, near Lake Virginia, Rollins College and Winter Park Tennis Center. Set on a quiet, tree-lined corner lot with no through traffic, the home enjoys an elevated position on a natural rise, offering peace of mind with no history of flooding, along with ideal north-facing orientation and beautiful natural light throughout the day.
