Property Description
Discover this beautifully restored and extensively renovated Spanish bungalow, thoughtfully updated in 2021–2022 while preserving its timeless character. Major system improvements include a new roof, new electrical, new plumbing, new HVAC systems with ductwork, and a well-fed sprinkler system—rare peace of mind for a historic home. Additional upgrades include refinished hardwood floors, replastered and retextured walls, remodeled kitchen and baths, fresh interior and exterior paint, Tiffany-style fans, and period-inspired lighting. With city water and sewer, this historic property offers the charm of another era without sacrificing modern convenience.
Ideally positioned across from Lake Cannon and near Lake Mirror on the scenic Winter Haven Chain of Lakes, the home is surrounded by tree-lined streets, beautifully preserved residences, and refreshing lake breezes. Curb appeal shines with textured stucco, arched windows, mature palms, and an oversized double lot. A covered two-car carport, new concrete driveway, detached workshop, and professional landscaping complete the exterior setting.
Inside, warm and inviting living spaces are filled with architectural detail and authentic character. The formal living room features Saltillo tile floors, beadboard ceilings, and arched windows overlooking lush gardens. Nearby, the family room showcases original hardwood floors, a coved ceiling, and a gas-burning brick fireplace. A cozy computer nook creates the perfect work or study space.
The formal dining room highlights softly curved ceilings, arched transitions, and charming glass-front corner built-ins. The updated kitchen blends vintage styling with modern function, featuring wood cabinetry, soft-close drawers, granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and a walk-in pantry with laundry connections.
Three bedrooms and two beautifully remodeled baths include a private primary suite with French doors opening directly to the rear patio. Outdoor living is equally impressive, offering a secluded patio and expansive backyard ideal for entertaining, gardening, or simply relaxing beneath the shade of mature landscaping.
The detached 18x19 workshop with roll-up door, electricity, and concrete slab provides exceptional flexibility for woodworking, hobbies, storage, or creative space.
Located just minutes from downtown Winter Haven, shopping, dining, medical facilities, and major highways, this move-in-ready historic residence also offers convenient access to public boat ramps and the full Chain of Lakes lifestyle. A rare opportunity to own a thoughtfully restored Spanish bungalow where timeless architecture and modern upgrades blend seamlessly.
