This 100-year-old Spanish home designed by renowned Sanford architect Elton J. Moughton is for sale

A historic Spanish- and Mediterranean-style home was designed by one of Central Florida's most prolific architects, and it's now on the market.

The residence, located at 2019 S. Park Ave. in downtown Sanford, was built in 1923 and designed by Elton J. Moughton, a post Depression-era architect whose work largely shaped Sanford.

The house has three bedrooms and three bathrooms, spanning a total of 1,904 square feet and sitting on approximately a quarter of an acre of land.

With a quaint courtyard, original windows, powder room, screened-in Florida room, paved garden and guesthouse, the estate is a modern example of Moughton's early 1920s work.

His career began in Florida in 1917, and for most of it, through the Great Depression and post-World War II years, Moughton was Seminole County's only architect. He designed and built a number of homes and schools, a resort hotel, civic and public buildings, and commercial structures ranging from warehouses to automobile dealerships.

The home is listed for $545,000 and the listing agent is Tammy Agnini with Century 21 Integra.
