Was this stately house always meant to stand here serenely on the banks of Lake Jesup? This, my friends, is the Wheeler-Evans House. A tangible piece of Oviedo’s history whispers through the walls of this grand old home. The Wheeler-Evans House first took root in 1928. Benjamin Franklin Wheeler, Sr. and his wife, George, envisioned a home that exuded the grace and charm of a bygone era. They chose the Colonial Revival style, a tribute to America’s rich past. The Wheeler-Evans House witnessed the growth of Oviedo, from a humble citrus town to the bustling hub it is today. The heart of the house, however, remained tethered to its roots. Clara Lee Evans, daughter of the original owners, spent her life in this house, first as a child, then later with her husband. The home stands as a testament to her commitment to preserving its history. Today, though largely unoccupied, the Wheeler-Evans House has a unique role. It provides a temporary haven for students of the Reformed Theological Seminary. They come from all corners of the globe to immerse themselves in their studies. The home serves as a bridge between its past and the promise of the future.
