A midcentury modern masterpiece with ties to architectural pioneer Frank Lloyd Wright has just hit the market in Winter Haven.
The home, located at 999 Oleander Drive SE in Winter Haven, was originally built in 1962 with five bedrooms, eight bathrooms and plenty of eye-catching contemporary details.
The lakefront estate's sprawling floor plan (8,505 square feet of 1960s style) was designed by architect Francis R. Hoffman, a student of Frank Lloyd Wright.
Hoffman is the founder and principal architect of the award-winning architectural firm Francis R. Hoffman Architects and is the former chairman of the Construction Advisory Group, Inc. Having gotten his architectural career start in 1954, Hoffman has worked on many projects throughout the country, although most of his work can be found in Miami Beach and Los Angeles.
Some of the home's most notable amenities include the two kitchens, a Florida-centric breakfast room, a library, wine cellar, sauna, extensive pool area (including a hot tub!) and — drumroll, please — a basement. It's a true Florida gem.
The estate is currently listed for $1,800,000 and is being handled by Rick Hemenway and Christy Hemenway with Crosby & Associates, Inc.
