The Estate

Two distinct structures. One extraordinary property.

Est. 1959

Mid-Century Pool

Designed and built in 1959, the pool and surrounding grounds embody the clean geometry and indoor-outdoor philosophy of mid-century modern architecture. The space is available exclusively for exterior productions — its architecture, mature canopy, and timeless proportions providing a backdrop that is impossible to replicate.

The pool area has served as the setting for editorial shoots, commercial productions, private events, and exclusive gatherings. Access is by private inquiry only.

Est. 1928

The 1928 Home

Built in 1928, this historic residence carries the character of a European estate — high ceilings, original architectural details, and a sense of quiet grandeur that cannot be manufactured. Originally the guest house on the larger Paulucci estate, it sits on a generous lot beneath towering oak trees along Mellonville Avenue.

Unlike the mid-century structure, the 1928 home is available for interior access — offering four bedrooms, 2,784 square feet, and an atmosphere that transports productions and events into a wholly different era. The contrast between the two structures on the same property is one of Mellonville's most distinctive qualities.

Old Florida

Ancient Oak Trees

The property sits beneath a canopy of ancient live oak trees along Mellonville Avenue — one of the oldest roads in Florida. These trees, some among the oldest in the state, predate the structures on the property and connect the land to a history that stretches back to the era of the Seminole Wars.

The grounds are available for exterior productions and events. The scale, age, and atmosphere of the oak canopy provide a natural setting of rare distinction — one that no studio or constructed environment can replicate.
