At 136 Whitman Road, the value extends well beyond the updates. LEGOLAND Florida Resort is only six minutes away, placing spontaneous park days, visiting family, and some of Winter Haven's best-known attractions close to home. Shopping, dining, schools, and major roadways are also nearby, helping everyday routines take less time. When the day is yours again, come home to a three-bedroom, two-bath retreat with 1,319 square feet and a 28-by-14-foot in-ground saltwater pool waiting outside. With the costly improvements already behind you: a 2023 roof, 2024 HVAC, 2023 water heater, 2019 new windows, septic service completed in 2020, and fresh exterior paint completed in April 2026. Imagine the laughter of a summer afternoon, dinner beside the pool, or a quiet evening after the crowds have gone home. Here, convenience creates more time for living, while the completed improvements let you enjoy the home with greater confidence from your very first full evening.
