A 1926 Mediterranean revival house on a brick street a few blocks from Park Avenue, restored in 2023 with its carved stone door surround and iron balconies intact.

The Alder House was built in 1926 on a brick street a few blocks from Park Avenue, in the years when Winter Park was filling with Mediterranean houses for winter residents. Its 2023 restoration kept the carved stone door surround, the iron balconies, the beamed living room ceiling and the arched steel windows, and replaced everything you cannot see.

The living room runs the width of the house, with tall windows onto the oaks. The kitchen, in deep green marble and white oak, opens to a breakfast room and a garden loggia at the back. Upstairs are four bedrooms, including a primary suite above the garden.

Seen twice

Noon, and the hour before dark.

The Alder House: a blush stucco 1920s Mediterranean revival home with iron balconies on a red brick street under live oaks.
The Alder House at dusk: windows lit amber, the oaks uplit and the brick street in the last blue light.

The house faces the street, and that is the pleasure of it: in the evening the lamps come on along the bricks and the neighbors walk their dogs under the oaks. Dinner on Park Avenue is a ten minute walk.
