This is a great property in so many ways. Basically a 1916 farmhouse that's held on to much of it's original charm and still has all the modern conveniences that allow you to live in it just the way it is. Huge room sizes plus 5 bedrooms gives everyone places to gather together but also find your own private sanctuary whenever you choose. Plenty of space to work from home if you need to or dedicate a space to a hobby or interest. Those of you who love the charm of older homes will love the wood floors as well as the high ceilings and the huge front porch. The newer counter tops add a contemporary design factor. I especially liked the wood trim around the baseboards, doors and room entrances. Conveniences such as an indoor laundry room, mud room, indoor storage, and kitchen eating space only add to the desirability of this home that will leave the right buyers eagerly anticipating settling into this home and envisioning anything else they may want to do with it. The 1/2 acre lot with no immediate neighbors offers privacy and seclusion while at the same time being only minutes from all the conveniences on Cypress Gardens Blvd, and SR 27 leading up to Eagle Ridge Mall. This property may be even more valuable in the future due to the fact that it is less than a mile and a half from where the proposed Polk Parkway extension will have an interchange. This means even more convenient commutes to Orlando, Tampa, & Disney while still enjoying the privacy and seclusion of a more rural setting. Great value & price.
BEAUTIFUL COUNTRY HOME on over a half acre of land with fenced in yard. Home is in excellent condition and ready to move in. Home features 5 bed/2 bath, granite countertops, hardwood floors. large front porch, detached 2 car garage with workshop! Home is located only a few miles from Legoland, mall, shopping centers, and highways. No HOA.
