About This Home

As of May 2024

Discover mid-century modern charm with a touch of lakeside tranquility at 1406 Drexel Ave NE. The sellers have just reduced the price by another $15k, making this property an even more enticing opportunity for those seeking a rare lakefront gem in Winter Haven.

Nestled on approximately 1/3 of an acre across two lots, this home boasts around 70 ft of lakefront, offering the perfect setting for your dream boat dock. The scenic views of the lake are visible from various rooms within the well-maintained 2000 sq ft home, which exudes mid-century allure. Put in your full-price offer today and sellers will give you $7000.00 towards closing costs.

As you approach, towering oak trees and a meticulously landscaped yard welcome you. Step through the front door into a formal living room, providing ample space for gatherings. The large kitchen, adorned with painted cabinets and a delightful backsplash, awaits just beyond. Tiled floors and generous counter space enhance the kitchen's appeal.

Enter through the carport, and you'll find yourself in a charming mudroom leading directly to the kitchen. The expansive family room and dining room combination, located straight ahead, serves as the heart of the home, offering abundant space for entertaining.

The master bedroom, featuring a spacious seating area, is situated to the left, providing a private retreat within your own home. Another bedroom, separate from the rest, is on the opposite side of the family room. A hallway from the master leads to two bathrooms, two additional bedrooms, and a convenient laundry room—all boasting generous dimensions.

While the bathrooms are original and could benefit from some updating, the resurfaced tubs add a touch of modernity. The large rear porch, spanning the length of the home, beckons with beautiful tiles and hot tub wiring. The spacious fenced backyard is a landscaped oasis, perfect for your furry companions.

Surprisingly, this home conceals a rarity—a functional basement! Used by the current owners as a podcast studio and hurricane shelter, it remained unscathed during recent storms. With no HOA constraints, newer appliances, a 2-year-old roof, a newly installed hot water heater, and an irrigation well for a lush lawn, as well as new blinds in the bedrooms, this property seamlessly blends mid-century aesthetics with modern conveniences.

Join a community of mid-century modern Gene Leedy homes and secure your piece of historic Winter Haven. Don't miss the chance to experience this unique blend of style, comfort, and lakeside living—schedule your showing today.
