Property Description
Charming 1923 Bungalow in Lakeland’s Historic Lake Morton District. This beautifully preserved and thoughtfully upgraded bungalow is a true gem in Lakeland’s historic district. Recognized with the prestigious "Excellence in Historic Preservation" award by the Daughters of the American Revolution Excellence Preservation Committee, this home seamlessly blends timeless character with modern convenience.
Historic Features:
Step through the lovingly restored original front door, complete with its original hardware, and into a space that exudes charm. The home boasts original wood floors, most leaded glass windows with original hardware, 8" baseboards, and an original picture rail. Decorative glass knobs add a touch of vintage elegance, while the original fireplace, though capped, remains a striking focal point.
Modern Upgrades:
Enjoy the comfort of modern living with a 4-season front porch featuring insulated, high-impact hurricane sliding windows. The floors have been heavily insulated, eliminating creaks and enhancing energy efficiency. The kitchen shines with quartz countertops, a vented microwave, reflective window film for energy efficiency, and LED under-cabinet lighting. Additional upgrades include a barn door to the bathroom, automatic blinds in the master bedroom, and natural gas availability. Systems have been completely updated with a new AC, roof, electrical (12-gauge rewire), plumbing, and a tankless water heater, all installed in 2021.
Additional Features:
The property includes a one-car detached garage/workshop, complete with electric and an AC window unit, accessible via an alley. Crawlspace storage adds convenience, while pest-proofing around the crawlspace provides peace of mind.
This historic bungalow offers the perfect blend of old-world charm and modern functionality, making it a rare find in the heart of Lakeland. Schedule your showing today to experience the timeless beauty and thoughtful updates of this exceptional home.
