About this home
Ask about the assumable loan option! Welcome to this beautifully appointed residence, where thoughtful design meets practical luxury. From the moment you arrive, the striking Hardie board and brick-accented exterior, expertly landscaped grounds, and pristine mulch create instant curb appeal that sets the tone for what awaits inside. Step into a light-filled open floor plan featuring wood plank tile flooring throughout the main living areas and durable LVP in the primary bedroom and third bedroom. The chef's kitchen is a true showstopper, showcasing quartz countertops, soaring 42"cabinets, a generous walk-in pantry, and a commanding center island. Custom backsplash, upgraded fixtures, and custom lighting complete this culinary hub. A spacious great room and open dining area flow seamlessly, perfect for entertaining, while the mounted TV setup with concealed conduit wiring maintains a polished aesthetic. Escape to the luxurious primary suite featuring a generous walk-in closet and spa-like private bath with upgraded handheld shower head and refined finishes. Additional bedrooms and a convenient laundry room round out the floor plan. Custom ceiling fans throughout the home and screened lanai ensure year-round comfort. Whole-home blinds, Ring doorbell, new vinyl fencing, and a Generac generator with dedicated outlet provide both convenience and peace of mind. The 2-car garage boasts LED can lighting and an automatic opener—all appliances, washer, and dryer included! Perfectly positioned between adventure and tranquility, this home offers the best of both worlds. Sebring International Raceway, Tampa's vibrant culture, Bok Tower Gardens, and Legoland are all within easy reach. Your move-in ready sanctuary awaits. Schedule your tour today!
Local Insight
This 2024 build hits $207/sqft in a town that's deliberately chosen character over sprawl, which is genuinely rare value for newer construction in a place with real identity—Lake Wales isn't another featureless Polk County suburb. The tight 0.14-acre lot and $45 monthly HOA reflect the Mabel Place subdivision's denser, walkable-oriented design, so you're trading acreage for proximity to downtown revival and Bok Tower Gardens' cultural draw, which matters depending on whether you want a retreat or an active small-town lifestyle. Worth verifying the exact school assignments (Winter Haven Senior is outside town), since Lake Wales families typically care about whether they're staying local or commuting.
