An iconic Winter Park home on 1.63 acres of lakefront property with 180 feet of shoreline. Enter the property along a 150 -foot- long private driveway. Original home, constructed in 1883, underwent remodeling several times with the theme of preserving the most unique features of late nineteenth century southern architecture while updating the home for contemporary living. This 2023 remodel is the most substantial to date, with a complete remake of the kitchen relocated adjacent and open to the family room, and an expanded master bedroom with vaulted ceiling, new master bathroom and two spacious walk-in closets, laundry room, and sitting area. Added to the family room are 10- foot accordion doors opening onto a spacious porch with automatic motor-driven screening, as well as a grand 100- inch fireplace, making a total of five functional gas fireplaces. The home boasts a 60 x 23 foot heated/cooled inground pool (built in 2012; one of the largest residential pools in Winter Park) and separate spa. In addition, the lake facing part of the property has a separate 500 square foot heated/air- conditioned casita/cottage with living room, bedroom and full bath. A unique curved “glass hallway” wraps around the summer kitchen, providing lake views from the new front-facing office. The remodel preserves nineteenth century features, such as heart pine floors and walls, wainscoting, and carved fireplaces in the living room, dining room, and library. A spiral staircase leads to a second floor containing two bedrooms, three full baths, storage room, roofed back porch and a kids game room. A new metal roof (2023) covers the entire home and cottage. Other amenities include all new kitchen and summer kitchen appliances including gas powered stoves and grills, two 36- inch refrigerator/freezers, and all new custom cabinetry. The home is completely wired for multi-router home network, security (including video), and entertainment. Neighborhood Description The home is located in the Sevilla development of Winter Park. The entry to Sevilla is continuously monitored by video camera. Neighbors consist largely of professionals who enjoy the safety of this area of Winter Park, the school district, and the fun of being "on the lake". It’s a ten -minute walk to stroll Rollins College campus, a 15- minute walk to Park Avenue.
