About This Home

As of May 2026

USDA eligible property offering potential zero down financing for qualified buyers. Welcome to 252 Cascara Lane in Auburndale, a move-in ready 3-bedroom, 2-bath home built in 2020 offering approximately 1,497 square feet of thoughtfully designed living space without the delays, upgrade expenses, or uncertainty often associated with new construction.
This open-concept floor plan lives large and is ideal for both everyday living and entertaining. The kitchen features a spacious center island, eat-in dining space, and seamless flow into the main living area. Luxury vinyl plank flooring runs throughout the home, providing a modern, cohesive look while offering durability and low-maintenance convenience — upgrades buyers often pay extra for in new construction.
The private owner’s suite includes dual vanities, a walk-in shower, additional bathroom storage, and an oversized walk-in closet. Step outside to enjoy the screened patio overlooking the fully fenced backyard — features many new construction homes do not include — offering privacy, space for pets or play, and an ideal setting for relaxing or entertaining.
Additional highlights include a two-car garage and established surroundings within a growing Auburndale community conveniently located near Lakeland and Winter Haven, with convenient access to both Tampa and Orlando, making commuting, travel, and entertainment easily accessible while still enjoying a more relaxed residential setting.
Schedule your private showing today and experience the advantage of a move-in ready home with valuable upgrades already completed.
