Description of Property
One or more photo(s) has been virtually staged. Along the peaceful perimeter of South Lakeland, Florida lies this extravagant 3 bedroom and 2 bath pool home with an office, featuring an expansive 2,769 square feet of living space on over half an acre of property. The home's new air conditioning unit was installed just within the last year, which will provide cooler temperature and comfort for many years to come. A long driveway leads to the front of the home, boasting both privacy and plenty of parking space for guests. The home gives a grand first impression as you enter through the front door, into the large living room that accesses the other portions of the dwelling. Wood laminate flooring spans the space, drawing the eye toward a built in electric fireplace and shelving along the far wall. Recessed lighting and a ceiling fan compliment from above, while a wide window and french patio doors look out to the screened porch and pool deck within the backyard. Opposite the patio is a doorway leading into the beautiful kitchen and adjoining family room. The kitchen comes equipped with plenty of preparation area along its stone countertops while cabinetry lines the walls both above and below, framing a built-in microwave and stainless steel appliances. An upraised countertop separates the kitchen from the family room, allowing for bar seating while enjoying the series of tall windows and shelved entertainment unit that surround the adjoining space. A doorway within the family room leads to a hall which connects a walk-in storage room, the two car garage, and bonus room. Both a built-in closet and overhead fan await within the bonus room, which adjoins the primary bedroom to act as a convenient office space or neighboring bedroom, which can easily be converted to an extra spacious and luxurious walk-in closet. The primary bedroom itself is of generous size and quality, with ceiling fans overhead and carpeted floors stretching from the primary bathroom to the room’s pair of walk-in closets, complete with wall shelving. The primary bathroom presents a wide single sink vanity and walk-in shower to ensure your every need is met in this private suite. A second entry leads to a long hall toward the living room, where you may access the guest bathroom and two additional bedrooms. Each of the guest bedrooms sports windows for natural light, an overhead fan, and built-in closet for easy storage. The guest bathroom provides plenty of space, as well as a single-sink vanity and shower and tub combination. The living room’s windowed patio doors bring you to the property’s luxurious backyard, rimmed with wooden privacy fencing. Here you’ll enjoy the spacious pool deck and accompanying water slide, all hemmed in by a brick-lined garden bed that completes this private oasis. Located just East of Scott Lake Elementary School and North of 540A, this property combines the comfort of a private community with easy access to all Lakeland has to provide.
