About This Home
Under contract-accepting backup offers. ROCKING CHAIR FRONT PORCH! Come see Longwood Place, one of South Lakelands highly sought after gated communities. Quaint community offering that close knit neighborhood feel where pride of ownership is evident throughout. This home is Earnie White construction, a very prominent and well known Polk County custom builder. Freshly landscaped corner lot with side entry 3 car garage and newer vinyl fenced yard. Entertain all summer long under the large covered back porch with pass through bar from the kitchen making those BBQ's easy. Swim and play in the screened pool. No need to run through the house wet as this home offers bath access from the pool. Two access doors to the back yard which is large enough to hold a shed and playset. The front porch offers that old southern charm, covered and large enough for several rocking chairs and a swing. Inside you are greeted by a large entry foyer overlooking the formal living and dinning areas and a direct view of the pool. Just off the front is a true office space or could be put to use as a playroom or craft room. The primary bedroom is tucked off on its own side of the house providing privacy, two walk in closets and an en-suite with stand alone shower, garden tub, dual vanities and a separate commode room. The primary bedroom also offers a sitting area and sliders to the pool area. The kitchen is large and in the heart of the home. Large corner glass windows overlook the pool so you are never far from your guests. The kitchen also has a breakfast bar, a breakfast nook and is open to the family room giving it that great open concept feel. The ceilings are tall throughout this home as well. The other side of the home hosts three good sized bedrooms and the guest bath which leads to the pool. Storage opportunity is also abundant in this home. The laundry area is inside and has its own dedicated space just off the garage entry. The garage is huge! Park three cars or make one bay into a work shop. The high ceiling in the garage is perfect to add the hanging shelf system to house the storage bins of all those holiday decorations. The layout of this home is something to be desired and there is plenty of room to grow. The roof is 9 years old, pool just got a new salt cell, pump, deck paint and several new screens. The interior was recently painted and luxury vinyl flooring was added throughout except the wet areas. Fantastic opportunity to own a fantastic home in a fantastic location! Call your agent today!
