Located in the heart of Winter Park, this exceptional and well appointed estate home sits on an oversized lot in the highly desirable “Vias” area. Dutch Provincial in style, this home was a Parade of Homes collaboration built in 2018 by Ira Kitograd of IBK Custom Homes and Z Properties. Designed by Gary Hancock with Winter Park Design, the thoughtful and functional floor plan showcases 5,259 SQFT of largely single story living with five bedrooms, an office and five and one half bathrooms. The entrance sequence is a showstopper including a private gated drive, motor court and a beautiful floating entryway with dissecting double water features on both sides. Upon entry through the extra-large front doors, you are greeted with cathedral ceilings, architectural styled beams and spacious open living areas that are light, airy and elegantly functional for both entertaining and relaxing. Adjacent to the living areas, you’ll find a gourmet kitchen with a large island and high-top seating for five.
