Just two blocks from Lake Hollingsworth, this restored 1937 craftsman bungalow blends historic character with modern updates and a detached Guest Suite on an oversized 1½-lot homesite. Main residence offers 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms; the third bedroom and bathroom are located in the detached guest suite/ADU. New architectural details including a pitched-roof front porch with solid columns and handcrafted window boxes, enhancing the home's classic curb appeal while remaining true to its original design.
Inside, the home's original hardwood flooring has been lovingly restored, and a completely renovated kitchen showcases salvaged heart-of-pine floors that were carefully refinished and reinstalled. A whitewashed beadboard ceiling, exposed wood beams, custom cabinetry with crown molding, granite countertops, new appliances, a pot filler, and a distinctive half-moon island create a space that is as functional as it is beautiful and livable.
The home's historic charm continues throughout with original solid wood doors fitted with brass and crystal hardware, high ceilings, elegant crown molding, and two beautifully restored bathrooms featuring original tilework. The original fireplace is capped, but still functional. The primary bath includes a cast-iron soaking tub and an original marble-topped Eastlake vanity paired with a vessel sink.
Behind the home, a detached, fully equipped guest suite provides exceptional flexibility as guest quarters, an art studio, home office, home theatre, multigenerational living space, or private retreat. The suite boasts a third bath with toilet and shower. It also contains a kitchenette with refrigerator, sink and cabinetry. Adjacent to the bonus room is a sprawling patio surrounded by fig, avocado and other garden landscaping.
Rich in craftsmanship, history, and character, this is a rare opportunity to own one of Lakeland's beautifully restored historic homes just moments from one of the city's most treasured lakes.
