Welcome to your own rural oasis in south Lakeland—where history, charm, and possibility come together on 4.82 picturesque acres. Nestled on a quaint road that ends at a cul-de-sac, this unique property offers a rare chance to create your dream homestead amongst the beauty of the open space. The centerpiece of the property is a historic 1938 farmhouse with a remarkable story. Originally located at the corner of Lake Hollingsworth Dr and Success Ave, the home was relocated to its current setting, and the proceeds from its sale helped establish Historic Lakeland, Inc.—the nonprofit dedicated to preserving the architectural heritage of the city. Today, this 3-bedroom, 1.5-bath charmer is full of potential, brimming with original details like hardwood floors, crown molding, picture rail trim, and a wood-burning fireplace that speaks to a bygone era. Outdoors, the property is well-suited for a variety of outdoor activities including outbuildings that inspire the property's potential. A creek borders the front lot and connects to a serene pond on the eastern side of the property, offering a peaceful backdrop and a natural water feature. The barn features an apartment upstairs with plumbing hookups, suitable for a guest suite, office, or creative studio. If you're looking to leave your mark and restore a piece of Lakeland history while also escaping to a more peaceful pace of life, this property offers the space, setting, and story to make it truly your own! *** Home being sold as-is, fixer upper, AC upstairs does not work *** Sale includes both parcels that total 4.82 acres: 23-29-19-000000-022140 AND 23-29-19-000000-022130
