Sitting on one of the largest lots in the neighborhood, this North Lakeland home is a rare opportunity to own nearly half an acre (.44 acres) with NO HOA or CDD! Tucked at the end of a cul-de-sac in a quiet, well-established neighborhood, this home is full of character and potential — the perfect canvas to make your own. The massive backyard is truly the star — wide open, shaded in the front by mature trees, and private in the back with plenty of room to garden, build, host, or relax and watch the sunset. Whether you dream of a fire pit, pool, swing set, or all of the above, this yard gives you the space and freedom to do it. Inside, the home features a classic split-bedroom layout with real hardwood flooring throughout the main areas and tile in the wet zones. The spacious living room flows into a separate dining room and leads to the retro-style family room featuring a real brick, wood-burning fireplace, and wood paneling. There's even an extra storage closet in the family room, just before you step out through sliding glass doors into that incredible yard. Down the hallway, you’ll find all three bedrooms: two guest rooms on the left, an updated full bath and linen closet on the right, and the oversized primary suite at the end of the hall. The primary offers two closets, a large vanity space, and a private toilet/shower area. The two-car garage is another standout — perfect for storing toys, tools, or turning into your dream workshop, gym, or hobby space. Plus, there's a dedicated laundry area for added convenience. This isn't your average cookie-cutter home. It's got space, charm, and freedom — ready for you to bring your vision to life.
