Coming Soon — Exclusive Gated Luxury Home in the Heart of Maitland | $1,249,000 | Available to Qualified Buyers Before Public Listing
Chris Creegan | Creegan Group | Winter Park & Maitland’s Luxury Listing Specialists | 2025 Broker of the Year | Top 40 Nationwide
Before this home hits the MLS. Before it appears on Zillow. Before the sign goes in the ground and the public gets access — qualified buyers in Creegan Group’s network get to see it first.
That is not a marketing gimmick. It is how the Winter Park and Maitland luxury market actually works at the highest level — and it is one of the most meaningful advantages of working with the team that has its finger on this market more than any other brokerage operating in it.
Coming soon: an exclusive 4-bedroom, 4-bathroom pool home in a private gated community in the heart of Maitland, listed at $1,249,000. Over 3,600 square feet. A brand-new luxury kitchen. A new roof. A resort-style pool. And an address in one of Maitland’s most coveted and private residential enclaves — available right now to buyers who are connected to Creegan Group before it is available to anyone else.
The Home — What $1,249,000 Looks Like Before Anyone Else Sees It
This is the kind of home that, once it hits the public market, generates immediate, serious interest and moves quickly. The combination of square footage, finish quality, community exclusivity, and Maitland location creates a profile that the right buyer recognizes on contact. Our goal is to put that buyer in front of this home before the competition finds it.
4 Bedrooms, 4 Full Bathrooms, 3,600+ Square Feet
At over 3,600 square feet with four full bathrooms — not three full and one half, but four complete bathrooms — this home is configured for the full range of how luxury buyers at this level actually use their space. Whether that means a dedicated primary suite sanctuary on one side of the home, two secondary bedrooms functioning as private guest suites for family who visits regularly, and a fourth bedroom serving as a home office or fitness room — or any number of configurations that a household at this stage of life requires — the square footage and bathroom count deliver the flexibility that production homes at this price point simply cannot match.
The floor plan is designed with the separation and privacy that buyers who have outgrown their previous home are specifically seeking. This is not a home where every room shares a wall with every other room. It is a home where spaces have purpose, separation, and the kind of acoustic and visual privacy that the family or professional household at the $1.2 million level has earned the right to expect.
A Brand-New Luxury Kitchen — The Renovation Already Completed
The kitchen in this home is not a renovation that the next buyer will need to plan, budget for, and manage. It has already been done — to a specification that defines what “luxury kitchen” means in the current Maitland market.
A brand-new luxury kitchen at this price point means custom cabinetry at full height, premium stone countertops, professional-grade appliances, an island configuration that functions for both daily cooking and weekend entertaining, and the lighting and hardware details that communicate quality at the level that buyers in gated Maitland communities expect. The seller has invested in this renovation with a standard that eliminates the most common buyer objection to a home in this price tier — the kitchen — before it is ever raised.
For a buyer who has walked away from comparable homes in this market because the kitchen needed work, this one does not. The work is done.
New Roof — Capital Expenditure Already Absorbed
As with the kitchen, the new roof is a major capital expenditure that the seller has already made — removing one of the most significant inspection-phase negotiating variables from the transaction entirely. In the current market, where buyers are deliberate and condition-sensitive, a new roof and a brand-new kitchen represent two of the most consequential items on any buyer’s mental checklist. Both are checked here.
Resort Pool — The Florida Outdoor Living Standard, Met
The pool at this home is not a feature that was included because every home in this price range in Florida has one. It is a central element of how this property lives — the outdoor destination that the covered lanai, the rear-facing rooms, and the overall site plan orient toward. A resort-quality pool environment in a gated Maitland community, connected to over 3,600 square feet of interior living space, creates the indoor-outdoor lifestyle that is the defining aspiration of Florida luxury residential ownership.
Private Gated Community — The Maitland Exclusivity Premium
The gated community setting is not incidental to this home’s value. In Maitland’s luxury market, gated residential enclaves represent a specific category of demand — buyers who want privacy from through traffic, a controlled residential environment, and the community character that private gates preserve. These communities have a finite number of homes by definition. New supply does not appear. When a home in a premium gated Maitland community comes available, the buyers who have been watching that community — and there are always buyers watching — respond accordingly.
This home is in one of those communities. And right now, it is available before those buyers find it through the MLS.
Why the Winter Park and Maitland Luxury Market Works This Way — And Why It Matters to You
The buyers who purchase the best homes in Winter Park and Maitland are not, in many cases, buyers who found those homes on Zillow the morning they went live. They are buyers who were connected to the right brokerage — the brokerage that holds the listings, knows what is coming before it is public, and has the relationship with the seller to facilitate a showing and a conversation before the sign goes in the ground.
This is not unique to Winter Park and Maitland. It is the way high-demand luxury markets function everywhere. In Manhattan, in Beverly Hills, in Palm Beach — the best properties are absorbed by the best-connected buyers before the broader market ever gets access. The mechanism is not a secretive one. It is simply the product of a brokerage that has built deep enough relationships on both sides of the market to facilitate introductions that the MLS system was never designed to make.
At Creegan Group, off-market and pre-market access in the Winter Park and Maitland luxury corridor is not a feature we advertise. It is the byproduct of being the most active and deeply embedded luxury brokerage in these markets. We hold listings that have not yet been publicly announced. We have buyers who have told us specifically what they are looking for — address range, price range, bedroom count, lifestyle features — and we match those buyers to properties before those properties are publicly available.
The result is that a meaningful number of our transactions in Winter Park and Maitland close without ever appearing in public search results. The buyer found the home through us. The seller chose to work with us. The transaction happened privately, efficiently, and at a result that the public market process often cannot replicate.
This coming-soon Maitland listing is an example of exactly that process in action.
Creegan Group’s Off-Market and Pre-Market Luxury Inventory — Winter Park and Maitland
The coming-soon listing at $1,249,000 is not an anomaly. It is representative of an ongoing inventory of off-market and pre-market luxury properties across the Winter Park and Maitland corridor that Creegan Group holds at any given time — properties that are committed to the market through Creegan Group’s representation but that have not yet been, or may never be, publicly advertised.
Sellers choose this path for a variety of reasons. Privacy — not wanting neighbors, colleagues, or the public to know their home is available before they have made a definitive decision to move. Timing — wanting to gauge market interest and secure the right buyer before committing to a public launch that starts a clock. Or simply trust — knowing that Creegan Group’s buyer pipeline is deep enough and active enough that public advertising may be unnecessary.
For buyers in the Winter Park and Maitland luxury market, the implication is straightforward: if you are not in Creegan Group’s buyer network, you are not seeing the full inventory of what is available in these markets.
The homes that appear on Zillow are the homes that the full market can access. The homes that appear in Creegan Group’s pre-market conversations are the homes that buyers who are working with us can access. In a market as competitive and inventory-constrained as Winter Park and Maitland’s luxury tier, that difference is not academic. It is the difference between finding the right home and settling for what is publicly available.
Why Creegan Group Is the Luxury Listing Specialist in Winter Park and Maitland
The question of who the luxury listing specialists are in the Winter Park and Maitland market has a clear answer — and it is backed by production data, market recognition, and the actual transaction record that defines what “specialist” means.
Creegan Group is headquartered in Maitland. At 439 Lake Howell Road, we are not a Winter Park or Orlando firm that covers Maitland as part of a broader territory. Maitland is our home market. Chris Creegan lives in Winter Park. The team’s institutional knowledge of both markets — the specific streets, the specific communities, the specific pricing dynamics that differ between a home on Lake Maitland’s shoreline and a comparable home two blocks off the water — comes from years of active participation in these markets at the highest level, not from accessing a shared MLS database.
The production record speaks. Six of the seven highest-priced residential sales in Winter Park history occurred in the Via neighborhoods that Creegan Group knows intimately. The sale of 630 S. Maitland Avenue at $2,950,000 demonstrated our capability across both luxury residential and commercial real estate in the Maitland market. The pending sale of 1560 Woodland Avenue at $1,850,000 — under contract in 16 days after sitting with a different brokerage for 8 months — is the clearest possible evidence of what changes when Creegan Group takes over a Winter Park or Maitland listing.
The buyer pipeline is unmatched. 600+ qualified buyer leads per month, from Zillow Flex Premier Agent status, HomeLight Elite, Dave Ramsey Trusted Pro referrals, and national corporate relocation networks. The buyer who purchases this coming-soon Maitland listing may be in our database right now — a pre-approved, motivated buyer who has told us they are looking for exactly this combination of features in exactly this community type.
The marketing platform is the best in the market. When a Creegan Group luxury listing goes public — if it goes public — it is supported by cinematic video production, architectural photography, Matterport virtual tours, a dedicated property website, Zillow Showcase placement, and national and international digital advertising that reaches buyers in every major origin market for Central Florida luxury purchases. The coming-soon listing at $1,249,000 will receive that full platform if it reaches the public market — or it will transact privately before it ever needs it.
Who This Home Is For
The buyer for this coming-soon Maitland listing will recognize the combination immediately. They are likely one of the following:
The move-up buyer within the Maitland/Winter Park corridor. Already living in the market, already familiar with what gated community living in Maitland looks like, and looking for the upgrade in square footage, kitchen quality, and pool environment that their current home does not deliver.
The relocating executive or professional couple. Arriving from a metro market where $1.249 million does not approach what this home delivers, and looking for an address that combines the privacy of a gated community with the proximity to the amenities, school district, and professional infrastructure that Maitland and Winter Park provide. AdventHealth’s hospital campuses, the Maitland Center office corridor, and the broader Winter Park professional community all serve as employment anchors for this buyer profile.
The physician, attorney, or financial professional who has reached the point in their career where the home environment matches the professional achievement — and who specifically wants a home that is move-in ready, renovated, and requires no project management on arrival.
The second-home buyer for whom Maitland’s combination of privacy, location, and amenity access makes it the preferred Central Florida address when they are not at their primary residence elsewhere.
Get Access Before the Public Does
If the profile of this coming-soon listing — 4 bed / 4 bath / 3,600+ sq ft / new luxury kitchen / new roof / resort pool / gated community / Maitland / $1,249,000 — describes what you are looking for, the time to reach out is now. Not when it hits Zillow. Now.
Creegan Group will provide qualified buyers with full details, professional photography, and the opportunity to schedule a private showing ahead of any public listing date.
This is also the right moment to have a broader conversation about what else is in Creegan Group’s Winter Park and Maitland pre-market pipeline — because this property is one of several that exist in various stages of pre-public availability in these two markets right now. The right home for your specific situation may already be accessible to you through Creegan Group, even if you have not yet seen it listed anywhere.
