INSTANTLY RECOGNIZABLE - this iconic centrally located Lakeland home has been the source of wonder and curiosity for decades and is now available to the public for the first time. Situated on a lushly landscaped corner lot encompassing 0.77 acres you'll even find a brick footbridge across the creek flowing towards nearby Lake Bentley running through the property. Where else can you go on a nature walk and never leave your own yard? Built in 1953 this one-story brick & block structure features 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, a den/office (that could become a 3rd bedroom with the addition of a closet), plus a 2-car carport and circular driveway. There is an open patio in back plus a landscaping "shed" that will convey. New 3-ton HVAC system in 2024, roof replaced in 2013. This charmer needs some TLC but for those who appreciate the unusual, your dream opportunity is here! Furnishings and personal possessions are being sold at an on-site estate sale from Oct 24 through Oct 27th. No interior photos will be posted until after the sale concludes and the home is cleared of unsold items and cleaned.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
