Pre-Construction. To be built. Discover a unique opportunity to enjoy modern design and quality craftsmanship with this pre-construction contemporary bungalow by the renowned Barefoot Brothers, celebrated for their superior work throughout Winter Park. In collaboration with architect David Crabtree of Hive Workshop, this custom-designed residence is ideally positioned to take advantage of all the attractions Winter Park has to offer—just minutes from Park Avenue, Winter Park Golf Course, and an array of dining and shopping options. This distinctive property provides a rare chance to enjoy proximity to desirable amenities while also offering significant versatility for both personal and income-generating use. The open floor plan in the main residence includes two bedrooms, each with en-suite baths, a half bath, and a dedicated laundry room. Vaulted ceilings with exposed beams and collar ties enhance the airy feel, while quartz countertops, polished concrete flooring, and premium wood cabinetry deliver sophisticated, high-quality finishes. Designed with style and functionality in mind, the gourmet kitchen is equipped with high-end appliances, built-in cabinetry, and shelving, centered around an expansive island ideal for entertaining. Generous natural light floods the home through floor-to-ceiling windows, creating a warm, open atmosphere. Outside, the sleek metal roof and vertical wood slat accents add architectural interest, while an oversized, floating wooden front porch with exposed beams provides ample space for seating and offers a welcoming, shaded retreat. An expansive back porch further enhances the options for outdoor relaxation or entertaining. Thoughtfully designed for privacy, the property features a sliding entry gate at the rear driveway and lush bamboo along both sides, with sea grape hedges framing the wood-fenced front and backyards to create a serene, tropical retreat. Gravel walkways encircle the home, complemented by a paver driveway at the rear, a gravel parking pad, and a paver pad in the front for low-maintenance, elegant outdoor space. Adding to its appeal, the property offers dual street-facing entry points, enhancing convenience for guests and providing easy access from both the front and rear of the home. Beyond the main residence, a two-car garage with a private apartment above offers exceptional flexibility, whether for extended family, rental income, or even a home office. The apartment includes a full bedroom, bath, partial kitchen, living area, laundry room, and a walk-in closet, while the extra-deep garage with built-in storage offers ample room for vehicles, equipment, or collections. This setup presents an ideal "house hack" opportunity, accommodating multiple uses, including potential income from a garage apartment or additional space for storage or a hobby enthusiast’s collection. With construction already underway, there’s still time to customize finishes, materials, and layouts to suit your personal preferences. This property provides a rare blend of convenience, flexibility, and modern style in a rapidly evolving area—an ideal canvas for your lifestyle, whether you’re seeking a primary residence, an investment opportunity, or a versatile retreat close to Winter Park’s best attractions. Don’t miss the chance to partner with a premier builder to create a home that meets your unique needs.
