About this home

Welcome to this charming 2-bedroom, 1-bath historic home in the heart of Lake Wales, blending vintage mediterranean revival allure with functional modern updates. Built during the 1920s Florida land boom era, the home reflects the Spanish Mission and Mediterranean Revival architectural influences of the period, showcasing a textured white stucco exterior featuring a FULLY FENCED yard, timeless character, valuable updates, and exceptional DETACHED GARAGE plus WORKSHOP space. Inside, the home showcases original hardwood floors, a decorative fireplace with detailed tile surround, arched French doors, glass display built-ins, and a bright kitchen with crisp white cabinetry. Both bedrooms feature walk-in closets, providing excellent storage, while the primary bedroom offers the added comfort of a NEWER MINI SPLIT system, approximately 2 years old, providing dedicated cooling specifically for the primary bedroom in addition to the home’s 2014 central AC. A tankless water heater approximately 2 years old, electrical updated approximately 12 years ago, plumbing updated approximately 10–12 years ago, and a roof approximately 13 years old with no known leaks or damage. The home also offers TWO PATIOS and awnings, creating multiple spaces to enjoy the outdoors. A standout feature is the detached 2-car garage with an approximately 10-foot ceiling and dedicated workshop, featuring its own electrical panel, metal roof, and a convenient exterior sink, plus an additional half bath. This versatile space provides exceptional room for vehicles, storage, hobbies, projects, or workshop use. The property also features natural gas service. Conveniently located near downtown Lake Wales, local shopping, dining, schools, parks, and everyday amenities, this property combines historic charm, functional updates, and hard-to-find garage and workshop space in a central Lake Wales location.
