About This Home
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, perfect for today’s lifestyle.
Extensively improved with over $260,000 in recent upgrades, the home was enhanced
with both 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 both 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 both ambiance and function.
Just moments from the desirable Park Avenue, this architecturally significant modern
residence is ideally positioned in one of Winter Park’s most sought-after neighborhoods,
near Lake Virginia, Rollins College, and the 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.
