Welcome to your own tropical retreat in the highly sought-after Avon Park Lakes community! Surrounded by lush landscaping and featuring a high-producing avocado tree, this meticulously maintained 2-bedroom, 2-bath home with a 2-car garage offers the perfect combination of privacy, comfort, and Florida living.

Step inside to a spacious, light-filled living room that flows seamlessly into the dining area, where sliding glass doors showcase beautiful views of the screened lanai, sparkling pool, and tranquil backyard. The thoughtfully designed split-bedroom floor plan provides privacy, while the centrally located kitchen features solid wood cabinetry, generous counter space, and convenient access to the oversized 26' x 24' garage. Both bedrooms include large walk-in closets, creating plenty of storage.

The expansive garage is a dream for hobbyists or anyone needing extra space, complete with the laundry area, multiple rows of shelving, wall-mounted cabinets, a workbench, and abundant room for storage. Ceiling fans are located throughout the home, as well as on the lanai and in the garage, ensuring year-round comfort.

Step outside and enjoy your own private backyard oasis that has exceptional privacy and a beautiful natural backdrop. The screened lanai surrounds a 27' x 9' fiberglass pool featuring a newer pool pump, pool heater, updated lanai screens, as well as new DE pool filter grids installed in March. A detached metal storage building offers additional space for lawn equipment, tools, or recreational gear.

This home has been lovingly cared for with numerous recent improvements, including a new electrical panel (2025), septic system pumped (2025), new range and dryer (2025), washer (2026), new oven (2026), upgraded Culligan water injection system (2026), new sink and shower faucets in the primary bathroom, a new rubber garage door seal, and a professionally cleaned HVAC blower. A generator plug has also been installed for added peace of mind during storm season.
The property is served by two wells—one for the home's water supply and a separate irrigation well—along with a leased whole-house water softener and filtration system.

Best of all, Avon Park Lakes has no HOA fees and is conveniently located near shopping, restaurants, churches, and the Polk/Highlands County line. Outdoor enthusiasts will appreciate being less than half a mile from Lake Olivia, a local favorite for boating, fishing, and scenic walks.
