This is the first time in almost 50 years this amazing Mediterranean lakefront estate has been available for purchase. Located just blocks from Park Avenue on the shores of Lake Virginia you can enjoy panoramic views across the lake at Rollins College. Originally built in 1928, this home has been lovingly maintained, enhanced, and updated over the years all while maintaining the original charm. Nestled on over 3/4 acre with more than 150’ of lakefront, this is one of Winter Park’s premier lakefront properties. Once you enter the home you instantly see the original detail that you cannot reproduce today. Downstairs you will find the expansive family room overlooking the back yard and the lake, formal dining room, living room, Florida room, study, and chef’s island kitchen with professional grade appliances. Off the kitchen is a stairwell down to the +/-3,000 bottle climate controlled wine cellar. Upstairs houses the master bedroom suite and 3 other bedrooms. Interior features include 2 wood burning fireplaces (natural gas starter), gorgeous mouldings, built-ins, and French doors throughout; beautiful oak hardwood and tile floors; and detailed tongue & groove and beamed ceilings. Outside has multiple entertaining areas including poolside and lakeside vistas, a wonderful patio under a majestic Live Oak, huge back yard, and boathouse with power boat lift and rooftop deck, all surrounded by meticulously maintained landscape and grounds. Truly a classic and beautiful Winter Park estate for the ages.
