The inside is beautiful and the outside is amazing! If you are looking for over 1/2 acre in south Lakeland, no HOA, loads of parking, and an outdoor living area where you can enjoy the best of Florida living, then, welcome home! When you drive up to your new home you will notice the long circular drive, double carport and double garage situated on a huge corner, fenced home site in the heart of the shops and restaurants in the area. After relaxing on the cozy front porch, you will enter into a traditional foyer, one direction leads to the private rooms, and the other direction to the entertaining areas. Enjoy a movie night in the large living room, or read your favorite book in the study. If you love to bake and cook, you will love all of the countertop space in the kitchen, and the SLATE stainless appliances really pop. The dining room overlooks the kitchen, so it makes a great space for parties and casual get togethers. There is an office that could easily be a home school area, right off of driveway with access to the rear yard. Another private bonus room leads to the 1/2 bath and laundry area - perfect for a drop zone connected to the outdoor area (currently used as shampoo area). The master suite and bedrooms are at the other end of the home, making them quiet, private and secure. The master bath has an updated shower only configuration. Now, onto the outdoor oasis. You can have a great time watching sports or movies in the huge covered gathering room while sitting at the bar sipping on your favorite drinks with friends and family. Cool down and have a splash in the above ground pool, or sit around the fire pit sharing stories while cooking s'mores. The entire rear yard is fenced for your privacy and security.
