About this home
MAJOR PRICE IMPROVEMENT — rare South Lakeland opportunity with NO HOA, screened pool, detached workshop, and over 1/3 acre — now positioned to stand out among active listings.
If you’ve been searching for a home that gives you real space to live, work, and unwind—this one stands out. Properties that combine land, a pool, and a true workshop in this location are hard to find, and even harder to find at this price point.
Located just minutes from the Polk Parkway with convenient access to Tampa, Orlando, downtown Lakeland, and the new Orlando Health campus, this home offers both accessibility and breathing room.
With TWO primary suites and nearly 2,700 sq ft, the layout provides rare flexibility for multigenerational living, private guest space, or a true work-from-home setup without sacrificing everyday comfort. The home offers a functional layout that can accommodate a 4 bedroom, 3 bathroom configuration. Buyer to verify.
The kitchen features granite countertops and connects easily to the dining and living areas, creating a space that is practical, comfortable, and designed for real life.
Step outside and it only gets better. The screened pool, expansive patio, and covered outdoor space create a backyard you’ll actually use—whether it’s quiet mornings, evenings with family, or hosting friends.
The detached 20x25 powered workshop with approximately 12 ft clearance adds a level of flexibility that is difficult to find—ideal for storage, hobbies, business use, or RV and boat parking.
Major updates include whole-home re-plumbing, newer HVAC with updated ductwork, lined septic lines, energy-efficient windows, fresh interior and exterior paint, and updated flooring in both primary suites.
While some nearby homes may feature a pool, it is rare to find this combination of space, multiple suite options, screened pool, workshop, and lot size in this location at this price point.
Recent price improvement is expected to generate strong buyer interest. Homes offering this combination of space, layout, pool, and workshop at this price point tend to move quickly. Buyers are encouraged to schedule showings promptly, and seller may consider highest and best terms if multiple offers are received.
Inspections are welcome. Seller prefers a clean, straightforward contract.
If this home meets your needs, schedule your showing. Opportunities with this combination of features do not come along often.
Some photos may include virtual staging. Information deemed reliable but not guaranteed. Buyer to verify all measurements, square footage, and room uses.
