November 4, 2020
We are happy to announce that a Hideaway Junction Home is available for purchase. The Town is presently accepting applications from interested, eligible buyers. Eligibility information is available here.
The available home is located at 108 Trestle Drive and is a three-bedroom, two-bathroom unit with a two-car garage. The anticipated sale price of the home is $286,000.
All homes in the Hideaway Junction subdivision are deed restricted in order to keep the units attainable in perpetuity. The most important deed restrictions are as follows:
- Appreciation is limited to 2% for each of the first three years of ownership and then is reduced to 1% for each year of ownership thereafter.
- Owners must meet residency and employment requirements.
- The Town of Winter Park retains first right of purchase for any home that is put up for sale.
The homeowner's association (HOA) collects monthly dues that are paid to support the maintenance of the exterior of each home. The HOA dues are currently $100 per month.
Each homeowner is responsible for the payment of utility bills (trash removal, water and sewer, natural gas, electricity, etc.) for their property. Homeowners are also obligated to remove the snow from their walkways and driveways. The Town of Winter Park has accepted Trestle Drive as a public street and will manage snow removal and any street surface maintenance that may be required.
To be considered, interested, eligible buyers need to complete the application. Applications must include a written notice of financing qualification for the anticipated sale price from a lender. Applications will be accepted in-person at Town Hall or emailed to ajanes@wpgov.com. Applications must be received by November 12, 2020 at 5:00 pm. The Town will complete the selection process on November 20, 2020 at 3:00 pm.
Should you have any questions, please contact Alisha Janes, Assistant Town Manager at 970-726-8081 or ajanes@wpgov.com.
