446 MELROSE AVENUE

WINTER PARK, FL 32789

A distinctive offering where design, location, and performative upgrades come together seamlessly. One of the original modern homes in Winter Park, this iconic residence has been thoughtfully reimagined through a designer-led renovation that emphasizes clean lines, natural light, easy maintenance, and high durability. The result is a bright, refined space that balances architectural character with modern comfort. A flexible two-level layout offers main living areas on the first floor, complemented by an upper-level studio or retreat space with optional deck access, perfect for today’s lifestyle. Extensively improved with over $260,000 in recent upgrades, the home was enhanced with both durability and efficiency in mind. Major improvements include a commercial- grade TPO roofing system with advanced drainage and a 20-year warranty completed in 2024, as well as hurricane-impact aluminum sliders all around with large missile-rated glass and enduring waterproofing. Additional features such as a white reflective roof, whole-house surge protection, updated electrical components, and a new code-compliant deck railing further elevate the home’s long-term value and performance. The outdoor spaces have been equally curated, with mid-century inspired landscaping designed for both beauty and ease of maintenance. Palms, agave, and drought-tolerant plantings create a clean, modern aesthetic, while redesigned yard spaces enhance openness and usability. A professionally landscaped east yard, low-maintenance turf on the west side, a five-zone irrigation system, and private well irrigation contribute to a thoughtfully executed exterior environment. An expanded driveway provides ample parking, and outdoor lighting enhances both ambiance and function. Just moments from the desirable Park Avenue, this architecturally significant modern residence is ideally positioned in one of Winter Park’s most sought-after neighborhoods, near Lake Virginia, Rollins College, and the Winter Park Tennis Center. Set on a quiet, tree-lined corner lot with no through traffic, the home enjoys an elevated position on a natural rise, offering peace of mind with no history of flooding, along with ideal north- facing orientation and beautiful natural light throughout the day.
