HOMES FOR THE CURE

Help Find the Cure For Breast Cancer.

very day in the United States, an average of more than 100 people die from breast cancer. That’s almost 40,000 victims annually. At Centerline Homes, we’ve personally felt the devastating impact of breast cancer, and have decided to join with the Susan G. Komen for the Cure organization to help raise funds for research and education. In February of last year, Centerline Homes and Emerson International, the developer of Eagle Creek, hosted the first Homes for the Cure event. Thanks to the support of people like you, as well as companies throughout the region, the event raised more than $85,000 for Susan G. Komen Central Florida, the organization’s local affiliate. So we’re doing it again. Centerline Homes is proud to host the second annual Homes for the Cure at two outstanding Central Florida communities: Eagle Creek and RedTail. Emerson International and Starwood Land Ventures, the developer of RedTail, are co-sponsors. Your $5 admission will go directly to the Susan G. Komen organization, which is the leader in the global fight against breast cancer (see Pages 4 and 5). We’d also like to thank the many organizations in Central Florida that support the event, including Fox News, Clear Channel radio, Cox radio, CBS Radio, Orlando Life magazine, the Orlando Sentinel and the Leesburg Daily Commercial. And thanks to everyone for attending.

HOMES FOR THE CURE

usan G. Komen for the Cure was established in 1982 by Nancy G. Brinker to honor the memory of her sister, Susan G. Komen, who died from breast cancer at the age of 36. Today, the international organization has a network of advocates working through local affiliates to save lives and end breast cancer forever, empowering people, ensuring quality of care for all and energizing scientists and researchers. With $1.9 billion invested to date, Susan G. Komen for the Cure is the world’s largest source of nonprofit funds dedicated to fighting breast cancer and supporting patients and their families. Susan G. Komen for the Cure has played a critical role in every major advance in the fight against breast cancer over the past 25 years — transforming how the world talks about and treats this disease and helping to turn millions of breast cancer patients into breast cancer survivors. The organization pledges to fulfill its promise to end breast cancer forever, and will commit more than $2 billion over the next decade to breast health care and treatment — especially for underserved women — and to research aimed at discovering the causes of breast cancer and, ultimately, its cures.

H O M E S FO R TH E CURE

ABOUT KOMEN CENTRAL FLORIDA The first Central Florida Race for the Cure was hosted in 1996 in Daytona Beach by a dedicated group of volunteers committed to supporting the Komen mission. Susan G. Komen Central Florida, the national organization’s local affiliate, was established in 1999 and serves Brevard, Flagler, Lake, Marion, Orange, Osceola, Seminole, Sumter and Volusia counties by supporting, educating, advocating and funding community-based services for women in the fight against breast cancer. To date, Susan G. Komen Central Florida has raised more than $5 million through various events, including its annual Komen Central Florida Race for the Cure. Seventy-five percent of the funds raised through this and other events, such as Homes for the Cure, stays in Central Florida. The remainder goes to the Susan G. Komen for the Cure grants program, which supports leading-edge research. Locally, funds are distributed to non-profit organizations that provide breast cancer awareness, financial assistance, research, treatment and/or screening programs. The organization is especially focused reaching Hispanics, African Americans, migrant workers, the uninsured and the physically disabled — all of whom are at higher risk for breast cancer. In 2011, Susan G. Komen Central Florida granted 15 local non-profit organizations more than $600,000 for breast health services. The organization contributed an additional $150,000 to national research initiatives. In 2010, Susan G. Komen Central Florida helped to fund more than 1,600 initial screening mammograms, more than 1,100 diagnostic procedures (including biopsies and surgical consults) and numerous educational programs for more than 50,000 people. Breast cancer was diagnosed in 27 women who might otherwise have gone undiagnosed and untreated.

THE NEED IS GREATER THAN EVER As of 2011, Central Florida was home to nearly 2 million women, roughly one in eight of whom will face a breast cancer diagnosis in her lifetime. Of those 235,000 women, 77,000 will be diagnosed as having “advanced stage” breast cancer — and nearly 15,000 will die.

An estimated 25 percent of women in Florida between the ages of 18 and 64 have no form of health insurance. Because of this and many other factors, approximately 30 percent of local women have not had a mammogram in the past year. It is for these women and others that Susan G. Komen Central Florida fills gaps in breast cancer services.

ince building its first home in 1993, Centerline Homes has earned a reputation for well-planned communities, quality construction and innovative designs. Over the past 20 years, the company has built more than 5,000 homes across Florida, and earned dozens of awards for excellence. Centerline’s success starts with selecting exceptional locations for each of its new communities — locations that offer top-notch schools, an array of recreational opportunities and easy access to shopping and entertainment destinations. Then Centerline’s designers go to work, creating homes perfectly suited to each community — whether it’s affordable townhomes and single-family homes or luxurious estate homes along a golf course or abutting a lake. Giving back to the communities in which it builds has been a philosophy of Centerline Homes since it was founded. The Homes for the Cure fundraising event is just the latest example of Centerline’s charitable outreach. “Many of us have personally felt the devastating impact of breast cancer in the lives of our families and friends,” says Robert Hutson, president of Centerline’s Central Florida Division. “Our partnership with the Susan G. Komen organization allows us to help fund research and assist families in need.”

The Las Palmas EAGLE CREEK

The excitement starts in the two-story foyer, where the space is highlighted by an elaborate staircase and overlook, setting the tone for all that lies beyond.

French doors allow direct access to the covered lanai and swimming pool. The second floor encompasses 2,174 square feet of living space — that’s more space than many entire homes.

The Los Castillos EAGLE CREEK

ery few homes offer the spaciousness and flow of the Los Castillos. Rather than using walls to define spaces, this home uses subtle changes in flooring and beams on the ceiling as you move from the living area to the dining area to the kitchen. Even as you step from the interior to the exterior, the transition is almost seamless. The first floor features a family office off the foyer with a fireplace surrounded by glass, allowing views into the living room. The kitchen/dining/ living areas span 40 feet and open to a dramatic pool and deck area through sliding glass doors that stack, creating an ideal entertainment area. The downstairs owner’s suite is almost 22 feet in length and features disappearing sliding doors on one corner, which allows easy access to the nearby pool and spa. Upstairs, there’s even more excitement, including a “hangout loft” that opens to a balcony overlooking the pool, as well as a spectacular bonus room with circular bar, sitting area and enough televisions to keep everyone in the neighborhood happy on game day.

The Tesoro EAGLE CREEK

his home has it all — large, open spaces on the first floor for formal and casual entertaining, a kitchen any gourmet chef would love and oversized bedrooms upstairs along with a bonus room for fun.

The kitchen includes all of today’s most sought-after luxury appointments, including an island and a walk-in pantry plus a butler’s pantry. On the second floor there’s three bedrooms and two bathrooms for the kids, plus a 13-by-22-foot bonus room that will keep them playing for hours. The owner’s suite is a spacious retreat.

The Estancia EAGLE CREEK

he Estancia is perfect for families with older children who need their own space and whose parents need privacy as well. The downstairs owner’s suite is strategically positioned down a short hallway past the kitchen, far from the family room and the upstairs children’s rooms. Two walk-in closets near the owner’s suite entrance provide an additional buffer, leading to the large bedroom area. The owner’s bath is both spacious and luxurious, with two sinks, a make-up table, a big corner shower and a lavish tub. The second floor is a playground for kids, no matter what age. There’s a huge bonus room that can be a game room, a media center or an extra bedroom. A cozy loft is perfect for studying or playing video games. All three bedrooms are oversized — the smallest is 11-by-12 feet — and two have walk-in closets. And both bathrooms feature double sinks for easy sharing. Your kids will still fight, but there’s plenty of space to do it in — and you won’t hear them from the owner’s suite.

The Cambridge REDTAiL GOLF CLUB

he Cambridge model, located along the 17th fairway at RedTail, embodies Florida living at its finest. The home is shaded by towering oaks and features pastoral views of the golf course, Lake Nicholas and oak hammocks on the rolling hills in the distance. Designed for growing families or empty nesters living the Florida dream, the home maximizes its unique golf-front setting. The magnificent views draw you to the pool and deck, which features a fountain, a spa, a fire pit and fire accents. The lavish covered lanai includes a summer kitchen fit for any king-of-the-grill. Inside, space and luxury appointments are everywhere, as are the views. Moldings and ceiling details accent the major rooms. The owner’s suite, a retreat unto itself, includes banks of eight-foot windows and an owner’s bath you won’t want to leave. The kitchen is a chef’s delight, with all the latest appliances, ample space around the island and, of course, the omnipresent views that will make any meal a special experience.
