Historic Elegance with Modern Luxury Built by Cypress Gardens Founder Dick Pope! Step into a piece of Winter Haven history with this stunning 4 bedroom, 4 bathroom home, originally built in 1935 by Dick Pope, founder of the famed Cypress Gardens. Overflowing with timeless character and meticulously blended with modern updates, this residence offers a rare opportunity to own a truly iconic piece of Central Floridas heritage. From the moment you arrive, you're greeted by a grand imported Italian fountain that sets the tone for the elegance within. Inside, original details abound including hardwood floors, handcrafted wood doors, intricate moldings, built ins, and vintage tile all beautifully preserved to honor the home's architectural roots. The formal living room welcomes you with an original fireplace and pocket doors that lead into a spacious dining room featuring classic built ins. Adjacent is a thoughtfully updated kitchen where old world charm meets contemporary convenience: custom wood cabinetry, stone countertops, stainless steel appliances, a copper farmhouse sink, and a natural gas stove. The adjoining butlers pantry includes a second staircase to the upper level, adding both function and flair. An oversized den with original floor tile opens via French doors from the dining room, offering a flexible space for entertaining or relaxing. The screened porch is ideal for enjoying Floridas breezes during informal meals or morning coffee. A bonus room with a full bathroom also showcasing vintage tile and the original vanity completes the first floor. Upstairs, the secondary master suite offers a walk in closet and private bathroom with beautifully preserved tile and rewired original light fixtures. Two additional guest bedrooms share a full bath, and the indoor laundry room adds everyday practicality. The expansive primary suite is a true retreat, featuring its own sitting room with a wood burning fireplace, an L shaped walk in closet, and a fully renovated en suite bathroom designed for luxury living. Original built ins in the bedroom blend seamlessly with the refined updates, creating a space that is both restful and regal. This historic gem also has the potential to be officially registered as a historic landmark, making it not just a home, but a legacy.
