THE SETTING, AND THE DETAILS
A closer look.
BIG CHARACTER. BIG IMPROVEMENTS. BIG POSSIBILITIES. This lovingly cared-for 1925 bungalow offers 1,358 square feet of warmth, flexibility and timeless charm. Step through the screened front porch into a light-filled home with original hardwood floors, 10-foot ceilings, architectural details and a painted brick fireplace anchoring the spacious living room. An arched opening leads to the dining area, while the bright kitchen features stainless steel appliances, a gas range, generous pantry, new GE dishwasher and new LG counter-depth refrigerator. The spacious bonus room offers potential for a future third bedroom with the addition of a closet, while the separate office nook provides another flexible opportunity, including the possibility of a future half bath. Buyers should verify feasibility and applicable requirements. Behind the charm is serious investment in the home’s future. Improvements include new OSB sheathing, exterior wall insulation, moisture barrier, vinyl siding and trim, 12 double-pane windows and three fiberglass exterior doors. The crawl space received professionally engineered and permitted stabilization with 14 IntelliJack supports and supplemental beams. Permits are closed and the warranty is transferable. Additional updates include a 2020 shingle roof and replacement of the old cast-iron sewer line, kitchen drain and cleanout in 2023. Outside, the fully fenced .36-acre lot offers a pergola sitting area over pavers, two storage sheds, front-yard irrigation, a detached one-car garage with laundry area and an extended carport. Located just one block from Lake Bonny and Lake Bonny Park, close to Lake Parker and only minutes from downtown Lakeland, this home combines vintage personality, everyday convenience and meaningful long-term improvements.
