Lifestyle diva Martha Stewart is bringing her taste in homes and decor to Central Florida real estate.

The first Stewart-inspired development in Florida will be built by KB Home on 31 acres southwest of Windermere, company representatives confirmed this week.

The model homes should be completed by May for a grand opening of the Avellino community, designed for 143 homesites and a “new urbanism” look,” said George Glance, president of KB Home’s Orlando division.

“It’s a huge deal,” Glance said of the project, which is in unincorporated Orange County just west of County Road 535 and just south of Overstreet Road.
