The current owners completed an extensive restoration in 2014, carefully preserving the home’s original architectural character while creating beautifully updated spaces for modern living. Outdoors, the property feels like a private resort, featuring a pool with tanning ledge, an approximately 730-square-foot cabana, a 360-square-foot trellised sitting area, and an elevated fire pit surrounded by U-shaped seating. Six fire urns positioned along the front and side of the home continue the original design vision of incorporating views of both water and fire throughout the property. The fully enclosed backyard is surrounded by a concrete privacy wall and includes an 800-square-foot, three-car carport in addition to the attached two-car garage. Expansive lake frontage also offers the opportunity to add a private dock, subject to City of Lakeland permitting and approval.

Originally commissioned by prominent Lakeland businessman James “Jim” L. Ewell, the home was designed by noted architect A. Wynn Howell, whose architectural training included study under Frank Lloyd Wright. Its distinctive concrete construction reflects Ewell’s connection to the concrete industry, while its specialty tile “Forever Roof” is supported by three layers of plywood. The 2014 restoration was designed by the late architect Ernie Straughn and completed by Thurn Construction, resulting in a rare residence where architectural history, privacy and effortless lakefront living come together.
