Description

Welcome to Casa Alta, so named for being atop one of Florida highest points. A distinguished residence originally built in 1931 that has been thoughtfully reimagined for modern living. Nestled on a sprawling 3.17-acre estate, this over 5,000 square foot home masterfully blends historic charm with today’s refined conveniences.

Casa Alta, Spanish for “High House” earned its name from its unique perch atop one of Florida’s highest natural elevations, offering both a sense of grandeur and sweeping views that set it apart. From the moment you arrive, Casa Alta captivates with its classic architectural details, preserved moldings, original hardwood floors, and artisan craftsmanship that echo a bygone era. Yet, every corner has been carefully updated, including a state-of-the-art elevator, seamlessly integrating comfort and accessibility without compromising the home’s original character.

Inside, expansive living spaces offer the perfect balance of grandeur and warmth. Oversized windows bathe each room in natural light, highlighting both vintage charm and sophisticated upgrades. The chef’s kitchen, spa-inspired bathrooms, and custom finishes throughout make everyday living and entertaining effortless.

Set on a private 3.17-acre lot, the property provides space to roam, relax, and entertain. Whether you’re enjoying a quiet morning on the veranda or hosting gatherings under the stars, Casa Alta offers a rare combination of elegance, history, and modern luxury.

This is not just a home—it’s a legacy.
