Property Description

Located just steps from Park Avenue, this extraordinary Winter Park residence was fully rebuilt in 2018 by master custom builder Posada Homes. Set on a 0.39-acre lot along one of Winter Park’s most desirable tree-lined streets, the home makes an immediate impression with its elegant architecture and manicured grounds. As you step inside, natural light pours through large windows, illuminating gleaming engineered hardwood flooring, intricate millwork, and a sense of design that only a true custom build can offer. Tucked discreetly off the foyer, a hidden wine room adds an elegant surprise for the true entertainer. At the heart of the home lies an extraordinary chef’s kitchen outfitted with Thermador appliances, sleek quartz countertops, a grand center island, and custom cabinetry. The kitchen flows seamlessly into a spacious great room where high ceilings, designer lighting, and thoughtful architectural details create an atmosphere of effortless sophistication. The primary suite is truly magnificent featuring a serene sitting area, a spa-inspired bath with dual vanities, a soaking tub, and a luxurious walk-in shower. The expansive walk-in closet, outfitted with custom built-ins, offers both form and function for the discerning homeowner. It’s rare to find a Winter Park home with all bedrooms conveniently located on one level, yet this residence offers exactly that, combining effortless livability with refined design. Upstairs, a beautiful office and large bonus room provide versatile space for work, play, or relaxation. Outdoors, the home continues to impress with a resort-style backyard featuring a covered lanai overlooking the spacious sparkling pool and an expansive, meticulously landscaped yard. Adding yet another layer of versatility, a 252-square-foot detached studio currently serves as a fully outfitted gym but can easily be transformed into a summer kitchen cabana or whatever you envision. Located within walking distance of Park Avenue’s boutiques, restaurants, and cafés, and just moments from Rollins College and the Winter Park Chain of Lakes, this residence embodies luxury living at its finest. Don’t miss this rare opportunity to own one of Winter Park’s most outstanding homes.
