About this home
One or more photo(s) has been virtually staged. Tucked into Beacon Hill Historic District—one of Lakeland’s most admired historic pockets—this Mediterranean-style 4-bedroom, 3-bath residence is the kind of home people wait a lifetime to discover. Just minutes from Lake Hollingsworth and its scenic loop, the location delivers that “walkable, classic Lakeland” lifestyle with the architecture to match. Inside, the home strikes the perfect balance: rich 1920s character paired with thoughtful, modern updates. A bright, welcoming entry sets the tone, leading into gracious living and dining spaces filled with natural light, warm wood floors, and signature archways and details that make Spanish/Mediterranean design so timeless. The floor plan offers flexibility for everyday living and entertaining, including a dedicated office and an additional room that works beautifully as a den, guest space, or true fourth bedroom. The kitchen is built for real life and hosting—featuring upgraded cabinetry, quartz counters, premium appliances, a gas range with double ovens, and a standout butler’s pantry complete with custom storage and a wine/beverage fridge. The primary suite feels like a retreat with generous closet space and a spa-inspired bath offering dual vanities, a walk-in shower, soaking tub, and private water closet with bidet. Imagine walking out onto the rooftop terrace from the master suite to sip your morning coffee or evening vino. With a little imagine this space could be transformed! Step outside and the vibe continues: a newer saltwater pool with beach entry invites year-round Florida living, while the finished patio creates an easy, stylish space for dinners, weekends, and celebrations. The detached two-car garage has been fully improved with epoxy flooring, insulation, and a mini-split A/C—ideal for a home office, studio, workshop, gym, or hobby room. In addition to the garage there is a carport and long driveway for overflow parking. You’ll need it with all the entertaining you’ll be doing. The basement is a blank slate but could easily be reimagined as a wine cellar. What an incredible opportunity! With major systems updated (including roof and HVAC), plus features like a tankless gas water heater, gas line for grilling, crown molding, this is a rare opportunity to own a historic showpiece near Lake Hollingsworth—beautifully preserved, intelligently renovated, and ready for its next chapter.
