Ready to build your dream home in this ideal Central Florida location? The property is zoned to allow a single family home AND an ADU (accessory dwelling unit) right on the same lot (or attached to) your house, such as: an apartment over the garage or a small cottage or tiny house in the back yard. This option lets the owner generate rental income or provide private space for friends and family when they visit! You could even live in the small dwelling and rent the larger home. Whether or not you opt to include an AUD in your building plans, this location is ideal! Residents in the area enjoy the small town lifestyle including the best of Florida’s wildlife and natural wonders. Many nearby lakes, parks and nature preserves provide excellent fishing, water sports, hiking, biking and more. Only a short drive takes you to historic Lake Wales, for dining, shopping and famous Bok Towers Gardens, or head west to Winter Haven, home of Legoland and the world’s first Peppa Pig theme park which opened in 2022, for more shopping, dining and entertainment. It's only a short drive to doctors and medical facilities. This lot has easy access to US Hwy 27 for commuters or travel to the Tampa and Orlando attractions, Florida beaches and more.
