About this home
Under contract-accepting backup offers. Welcome to life in the heart of Lakeland. Nestled in the highly sought after Lake Morton Historic District, this beautifully updated 1919 bungalow blends timeless character with the ease of modern living. Located just minutes from Downtown Lakeland and less then half a mile away from Lake Morton, Lake Mirror, Barnett Family Park, Lakeland Community Theatre, the Public Library, the Ashley Gibson Barnett Museum, and some of Lakeland’s favorite local spots including Black & Brew at Lake Morton, The Joinery, Grievous Angel, and The Peach House, this home offers the kind of connected lifestyle people are searching for. From the moment you arrive, the inviting front porch sets the tone for relaxed mornings, evening walks, and enjoying everything this vibrant neighborhood has to offer. Inside, you’ll find thoughtfully updated spaces while still preserving the warmth and charm that makes historic homes so special. Previous updates include the roof, A.C., plumbing, electrical, windows, kitchen, appliances, flooring, water heater, and more, creating peace of mind for the next owner. The current owners have continued enhancing the property with a brand new driveway and professionally designed low maintenance landscaping featuring rock accents, added trees, and premium ForeverLawn artificial turf that is both beautiful and pet friendly. Whether you’re looking for less upkeep, a lock and leave lifestyle, or simply more time to enjoy Downtown Lakeland, this property was designed with that in mind. If you’ve been dreaming of a home where you can walk to coffee shops, community events, local restaurants, lakeside sunsets, and Lakeland’s beloved Christmas Parade route while still enjoying the charm of a historic bungalow, this is the opportunity you’ve been waiting for.
