Property Description
Situated on one of Winter Park's most scenic brick-lined streets, this exceptional two-story residence commands attention on a spacious corner lot, blending timeless architectural elegance with modern luxury. Built in 2016 by the highly regarded Rex-Tibbs Development & Construction, the home showcases quality craftsmanship throughout, from its striking curb appeal to its impeccably appointed interiors. A three-car side-entry garage—air-conditioned and offering generous storage—is connected to the home via a covered walkway, adding both functionality and charm.
Inside, beautiful wood floors extend seamlessly throughout the entire home, including all bedrooms, creating a warm, cohesive atmosphere. The main level offers an elegant formal dining room and a flexible front room that can serve as a home office, library, or formal living area. The heart of the home is the expansive family room, anchored by a gas fireplace and illuminated by natural light through large sliding glass doors that open to the lanai and pool. Overlooking the family room, the open-concept kitchen is a culinary dream, featuring a Wolf 6-burner gas range with double ovens, SubZero refrigerator, abundant cabinetry, and expansive counter space—ideal for both everyday living and entertaining.
The first-floor primary suite is a true retreat, with French doors leading directly to the pool area, a luxurious spa-style bath, and a custom 14x10 walk-in closet designed for maximum organization and style. A secondary primary suite, also located on the main level, includes a generous walk-in closet and a private ensuite bath, offering flexibility for guests or multigenerational living.
Upstairs, the home continues to impress with a spacious recreation/game room, a separate bonus room, and three additional bedrooms—all of which feature ensuite baths and walk-in closets, ensuring comfort and privacy for family and visitors alike.
Step outside to experience resort-style living at its finest. The covered lanai is equipped with a fully outfitted summer kitchen, including a built-in grill, while the pool area is a showstopper—complete with a dramatic gas fire display, tranquil waterfall, ambient lighting, and a lush wall of bamboo that enhances privacy and lends a tropical ambiance. A separate outdoor cabana with TV and seating area offers the perfect place to unwind or entertain in style.
Beyond the home, the location is truly unbeatable. Nestled in one of Winter Park's most desirable neighborhoods, you're just minutes from the upscale shops, fine dining, and cultural attractions of Park Avenue. The home is also conveniently close to top-rated public and private schools, premier medical facilities, and major transportation hubs—including both the Orlando Executive Airport and Orlando International Airport—ensuring ease of access for business and leisure travel alike. This remarkable property offers the ultimate in refined living, combining luxury, comfort, and convenience in one of Central Florida's most sought-after communities.
