A Rare Gem with Endless Potential in the Lakeland Historic District! This 4-bedroom, 2-bath plantation-style home is a diamond in the rough, brimming with character and charm but in need of some work and updates to restore its full glory.

The exterior includes a detached garage with a loft and attached workshop, adding even more possibilities for customization.
