About This Home

Welcome HOME to this HISTORIC CHARMER!
Just a few blocks from the central Lake Hollingsworth location and conveniently close to shopping, medical facilities, schools of all types, restaurants, and more! This historic beauty features quintessential characteristics of the past—original hardwood floors, an adorable front porch, craftsman-style trim work, stylish doors, high ceilings, and a detached garage/storage at the end of a long private driveway.
From the moment you arrive, you’ll notice the pride of ownership—with freshly painted exterior trim, refreshed screens, functioning windows, and a well-maintained exterior including a metal roof and A/C unit (both approx. 12 years old).
Major mechanical updates were completed in 2005, including electrical, plumbing, and foundation leveling.
Inside, enjoy two generously sized bedrooms, one full 3-piece bathroom, and two flexible bonus spaces perfect for a home office, formal dining, or reading nook. There’s also a spacious indoor laundry room for added convenience.
The owner is also including several custom 79” tall x 30” wide x 24” deep storage cabinets, adding both functionality and style to this adorable home. Wait there’s more!
This bungalow sits right next door to a community park with a children’s playset and open green space. In the fenced backyard, you’ll find a custom-built tree fort and plenty of shady spots to relax or play—perfect for entertaining or enjoying outdoor fun with family and friends.

Don’t miss your chance to own a piece of Lakeland’s history! This lovingly cared-for bungalow is ready to welcome you home.
