Residential Property - Single Family Residence in Lakeland
Listing Price: $335,000 (Mortgage Calculator →)
Description of Property
There’s something different about a true mid-century home — the proportions feel right, the materials have weight, and the layout makes sense. Tucked into one of Lakeland’s well-established neighborhoods near Lake Hollingsworth, this 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom residence blends original character with meaningful updates at a price point that’s increasingly hard to find. From the front porch, you step into a warm living room anchored by original hardwood floors — not laminate trying to imitate it, but the real thing. The space flows naturally: bedrooms straight ahead, and a clean-lined kitchen just to the right. Granite countertops, solid cabinetry, and tile flooring balance timeless design with everyday function. The kitchen opens into a spacious dining area made for gathering — dinner parties, game nights, or slow Sunday mornings. Beyond the dining room, a tucked-away laundry area leads to a flexible bonus room centered around a gas fireplace. Pocket doors allow the space to open wide or close off for privacy — ideal as a studio, media lounge, home office, or creative workspace. For buyers who appreciate defined rooms over one large open concept, this layout offers both separation and flow. Down the hall, each bedroom feels intentional and private. The primary suite includes a remodeled master bathroom (2026), while a centrally located full bath serves the remaining bedrooms comfortably. Outside, the backyard offers something increasingly rare: personality and purpose. A charming gazebo creates an inviting outdoor living area, while the gated yard and edible garden provide privacy and usability. On the opposite side of the home, a double-swing gate opens to a concrete slab driveway with ample RV or boat parking — a feature that adds flexibility without sacrificing curb appeal. Major systems have already been addressed: • New roof – March 2024 • A/C condenser & air handler (3 ton) – 2017 • Electrical panel update – 2015 • Re-piped hot & cold water lines – 2014 • Hot water heater – 2021 Located just minutes from walking paths around Lake Hollingsworth and convenient shopping including Publix, this Lakeland home offers the balance today’s buyers are searching for: architectural character, thoughtful updates, functional living space, and outdoor flexibility — all at $335,000. If you’ve been waiting for a mid-century Lakeland home with hardwood floors, a remodeled primary bath, bonus room, fireplace, RV parking, fenced yard, and a new roof — this one is ready for its next chapter.
