Description

One or more photo(s) has been virtually staged. This Northeast Winter Haven home offers more of what matters in a three-bedroom, two-bath: more interior square footage, a true two-car garage, and durable concrete block and brick construction, all priced below the updated and newer-built listings nearby. At approximately 1,602 square feet, it lives larger than the comparable three-bed, two-bath houses currently on the market in the area, and it backs that space with an attached two-car garage that delivers covered parking and storage most competing listings can't match. Inside, original hardwood floors run through the main living areas and bedrooms, and a brick wood-burning fireplace gives the central living room a focal point that newer construction rarely includes. The layout connects the living, dining, and kitchen areas for easy day-to-day living, with a dedicated indoor laundry room and two full bathrooms, one featuring a double vanity. The kitchen retains solid wood cabinetry and a stainless range with genuine prep and storage space - functional as-is and an honest blank canvas for a buyer who wants to modernize on their own timeline. What sets this home apart from a typical as-is opportunity is the condition of the systems: a shingle roof less than ten years old, a new water heater, a newer furnace, and a ductless mini-split system still under warranty, with electrical and plumbing both confirmed in good working order. That combination takes the costliest unknowns off the table, so improvement dollars can go toward cosmetics rather than core infrastructure. Outdoors, the fully fenced backyard is framed by mature shade trees and finished with a poured concrete patio, all on a generous lot with room for pets, gardening, a workshop, or future outdoor living. There is no HOA and no CDD, and the home is served by city water and public sewer. The location keeps you close to Polk State College, downtown Winter Haven, the US-17 corridor, and the lakes the area is known for, with quick access to the wider Polk County market between Tampa and Orlando. For an investor, this is a clean value-add: solid block-and-brick bones, updated systems, and cosmetic scope you control. For an owner-occupant, it's the chance to own the largest, best-built three-bedroom on the block, add your own finishes, and build equity from day one.
