Property Description

Here’s the kind of space that makes life easier. Set on 1.18 acres at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac in South Lakeland, this spacious property provides privacy, flexibility, and a layout that’s perfect for multigenerational living—with no HOA restrictions. The main home includes three bedrooms and three full baths with vaulted ceilings, open living and dining areas, and sliding glass doors that lead to a full-length covered patio. The kitchen features wraparound counters, ample storage, and a breakfast nook filled with natural light and backyard views. The primary suite is tucked away with private patio access, two walk-in closets, and a large en-suite bath with double vanities, a soaking tub, and tiled walk-in shower. Upstairs, a separate retreat includes a loft, bedroom, full bathroom, and its own balcony—ideal for guests, teens, or a quiet workspace. Just off the back porch, a private-entry mother-in-law suite adds even more flexibility. Renovated in 2025, it provides a full kitchen with new cabinets and appliances, fresh flooring and paint, a living and office area, and sliding doors that open to the backyard. Recent updates throughout the home include a new roof (2023), all-new plumbing (2025), refinished drywall, interior paint, LED lighting, new vent covers, smoke detectors, and electrical switch plates. The oversized side-entry garage includes a workshop space, and the extended driveway with carport (added in 2013) allows for plenty of parking. The fully fenced backyard has mature landscaping, two storage sheds, and wide open green space. Located in South Lakeland close to schools, parks, and everyday shopping, this home delivers the space and setup to comfortably bring everyone together—without giving up privacy or independence.
