Under contract-accepting backup offers. Your Dream of Country Living in a Historic South Lakeland Cottage Starts Here! It is rare to find a charming 1930 home with this much character, privacy, and land- especially in one of Lakeland’s most desirable zip codes! This authentic Craftsman-style historic cottage is nestled on nearly half an acre at the end of a quiet dead-end street, adjacent to a peaceful wooded area and tucked among newer homes. It truly feels like a little piece of the country, yet you are just minutes from everything desirable in South Lakeland.
For those who dream of owning a home with history and personality, this one is truly special. Most historic homes in the Lakeland area are closer to downtown and come with small lots. Here, you get the best of both worlds- timeless historic charm AND the space, privacy, and freedom that are so hard to find. With NO HOA, there is room to garden, have animals, entertain, enjoy a workshop, or simply have room to breathe.
Inside, this 1,314 SqFt home offers 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms with beautiful solid wood floors, tray ceilings, trimwork, and character throughout. The home has been extensively updated while maintaining the charm that makes it so special, including a metal roof, newer HVAC, new hot water heater, updated electrical system and panel, fresh interior and exterior paint, and updated plumbing. Additional improvements include a new roof over the primary bedroom, screened porch and laundry room, dual-stage well pump, new water filtration and softener system, inline hot water heater for the washing machine, and a transferable Terminix termite warranty.
Outside is where this property truly comes to life! The oversized 125 x 150 lot offers plenty of room to spread out, garden, relax, and entertain. The large screened patio overlooks the spacious backyard, while a covered patio structure provides the perfect spot for a hammock or firepit. Multiple producing avocado trees are already established, and the one-car workshop with lift-up door offers additional space for hobbies and projects. There is also an RV/generator hookup.
If you have ever dreamed of a charming historic cottage where you can enjoy privacy, garden, have animals, entertain friends and family, and still be minutes from everything South Lakeland has to offer, this could be the one!
Homes with this combination of history, land, privacy, updates, and location simply do not come along often. This isn’t just a house, it is the kind of property someone has been dreaming about! Call today!!!
