Built in 1925

Welcome to the beautiful and most desired neighborhood in Lakeland; Lake Hollingsworth. This stunning 1925 home still maintains all of its original charm and character as it did 100 years ago, but with all of the modern amenities and updates that you would find in a new build. From the restored original hardwood flooring, the elegant crown molding, and the natural sunlight throughout, this truly is a perfect blend of functionality and historical charm. As you walk into the home you will find yourself in the open and spacious living room, equipped with a beautiful wood burning fireplace (also wired for gas). Then only steps away you will enter into the den/study, which would also be great as a sunroom. Next you will find yourself in the spacious dining room which has recently undergone a major transformation, which now opens up to the oversized kitchen, which is connected by a breakfast bar that is perfect for those busy mornings. In the kitchen you will also find the original built-in cabinet with a wooden countertop, along with brand new quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, an apron sink, and many other recent upgrades. Right off of the kitchen you will find a mud room which was previously used as a laundry room and utility closet. Downstairs you will also find 3 full sized bedrooms, a full sized bathroom, and a plethora of storage. As you head upstairs, you will find the primary bedroom which includes its own private balcony with double French doors. It also features a large built-in mirrored closet for him, and connects to a large walk-in closet with ample amount of storage for her. As you continue through the walk-in closet, you will find yourself in the primary bathroom, which comes equipped with a brand new glass shower with waterfall shower head, dual sinks with an oversized mirrored medicine cabinet (brand new replacement mirrors included), an in-line heated jacuzzi tub, and all new hardware. Let’s not forget the skylight that you will find directly above the tub, which gives you that spa-like feel, but in the comfort of your own home. Upstairs you will also find the 5th bedroom which includes a large built-in closet, along with an additional storage closet. Rest assured by knowing that this historical beauty has had all new electrical and plumbing (has passed a 4-point inspection), newer dual HVAC units (approximately 2013), a Rinnai hot water heater, water softener, roughly 30 new double-pane tilt-out windows, and so much more! Let’s not forget the massive backyard that comes equipped with a fire pit and outdoor seating area. It is a perfect backyard for those who are looking to add a pool later down the road. You will also find the original carriage house which currently serves as additional storage, but could always be converted to a fabulous “she shed” or “man cave”. If you are looking for a home in a beautiful and quiet community that has access to all of the local shopping and restaurants downtown, then this is the home for you. With only a quick walk down to Lake Hollingsworth, you can enjoy spending time at the yacht club, or take advantage of the many outdoor activities that surround you, such as golf, tennis, playgrounds, and so much more. Please schedule your private showing to see this beautiful home, and take time to see what all this great community has to offer. This home won’t last long, so please do not wait to submit your offers before it’s too late!
