CENTERLINE STAYS HEAD OF THE CURVE

Centerline Homes, founded in 1993, has built thousands of homes and won countless architectural and design awards. Based in Coral Springs, Centerline is recognized for providing new-home buyers extraordinary value, with spacious designs, expert craftsmanship and luxury appointments.

The company’s mission statement says it all: “To build our customers’ dream through a teamwork approach to quality construction.” Since its founding, Centerline has done just that for more than 5,000 families.

But that’s not all. Centerline is an industry leader as well, using leading-edge materials and technologies and offering forward-looking designs that anticipate trends instead of following them.

For example, Centerline was selected by the National Association of Home Builders to build a series of three showhomes for the 2012 International Builders Show, held earlier this year in Orlando.

These homes, located in the Eagle Creek community in east Orlando, were designed for the specific needs and lifestyles of three generations — Baby Boomers, Generation X and Generation Y. The project earned raves from industry pros and garnered national and international media coverage.

Complete customer service is another cornerstone of the Centerline philosophy. By using only quality materials and the latest construction techniques, the company’s approach has resulted in an an extraordinarily high referral rate from buyers.

In addition to offering an array of home designs and styles, Centerline boasts a design center that allows buyers to personalize their homes with the most up-to-date features and finishes. 

In Orlando, Centerline is active in three premier communities: Red Tail, Eagle Creek and Keene’s Pointe. Here’s a summary of what’s happening in each community:

• Red Tail. Lake County’s signature golf community offers a country-club lifestyle in a quiet, rustic setting. Yet, although Red Tail has a rural feel, it’s just minutes from C.R. 46A and an easy jaunt to Colonial TownPark and historic downtown Mount Dora. Centerline offers six floorplans in Red Tail, both one- and two-story designs with as many as six bedrooms, three-car garages and the option to add bonus rooms and flex spaces. Standard features include cherry cabinetry with under-cabinet lighting and granite countertops in kitchens and bathrooms. Tile roofs and brick paver driveways highlight the exteriors. Prices start in the high $400s. Call (407) 278-0340.

• Eagle Creek. Located in the burgeoning Lake Nona area, Eagle Creek is just two minutes south of S.R. 417 on Narcoosee Road, close to Orlando International Airport and the Medical City complex. Lake Nona middle and high schools are adjacent to the community. Centerline offers one- and two-story golf villas priced from $199,900; three- and four-bedroom single-family homes from its Executive Collection priced from $249,900; and three-, four- and five- bedroom estate homes from its Premier Collection priced from $349,900. Standard features include maple cabinetry with granite countertops in kitchens and bathrooms. Concrete tile roofs and brick paver driveways highlight the exteriors. Call (407) 278-0356.

• Keene’s Pointe. Located in prestigious Windermere, Keene’s Pointe is one of the region’s most sought-after country-club addresses. In The Gardens at Keene’s Pointe, Centerline offers four designs priced from $725,000. The ultra-luxurious Windsor model, with five bedrooms, four bathrooms and a loft, is particularly popular. It offers two first-floor suites: an owner’s suite and a guest suite ideal for in-laws or other visitors. The second floor is ideal for kids, featuring a recreation loft with a built-in desk, three large bedrooms and two additional bathrooms. Call (407) 278-0341.

Elsewhere in Central Florida, Centerline has built in Baldwin Park, Preston Square, Bella Vista, Woodland Lakes Preserve, Isles of Oviedo and North Pointe. The company is also active in Southeast Florida, the Naples area and Charlotte, N.C.

Centerline Homes takes its social responsibility seriously. Again this year, the company will host a Homes for the Cure fundraising event on behalf of Susan G. Komen Central Florida, which supports breast cancer research and education. The event is slated for Feb. 16-24 and will feature showhomes at both Eagle Creek and Red Tail. More details will be announced in the next few months.
