Property Description

This classic brick ranch offers space, character, and unbeatable flexibility in the popular Winter Haven community of Garden Grove—with NO HOA and no deed restrictions. Situated on a .23-acre corner lot just two blocks from Lake Ned and the public boat ramp and picnic area, this 3-bedroom, 2-bath home delivers roughly 2,268 square foot of thoughtfully designed living space. Built in 1968, it blends timeless charm with modern updates, including paid-off solar panels for an ultra-low electric bill, a 2017 roof and HVAC, and NO carpet—only easy-care tile throughout. Inside, you’ll find multiple living and entertaining areas: a formal dining room, formal living room or office, a spacious family room, and a stunning den featuring a large brick fireplace, warm wood paneling, built-in bookcases, soaring cathedral ceilings, and rustic wood beams. The den also offers direct access from the primary suite, creating a cozy private retreat. Step outside to enjoy a large screened back patio with a built-in grill, an 8-foot-deep in-ground pool (resurfaced in 2019), and newly added privacy fencing—8' wood fencing in back and a charming wood picket fence in front and along the side, all new in 2025. Additional highlights include an inside utility room with extensive built-in storage, pool equipment storage, a 2025 refrigerator, and new interior doors added in 2025. This home is packed with personality, practical upgrades, and endless entertaining potential—indoors and out.
