Welcome to the Beacon Hill Historic District - one of Lakeland, Florida’s most sought-after neighborhoods! This charming two-bedroom cottage-style home boasts recently refinished hardwood floors, a covered and screened front porch, and an incredible fully fenced back yard - featuring a detached garage, an open patio, and a fire pit - all surrounded by lush landscaping and mature trees. As you enter the home, you will find a welcoming, yet spacious living room with a stone-detailed, wood-burning fireplace serving as the focal point. The thoughtfully remodeled kitchen blends functionality and tasteful style, with a breakfast bar overlooking the dining room to provide extra seating, granite countertops with ample surface space, stainless steel appliances, and custom wood cabinetry. A large window frames peaceful views of the back yard from the vantage point of the kitchen sink, and the adjacent laundry room provides overflow storage and a convenient exterior door (with washer/dryer included!). Use of space is optimized throughout this home. Both bedrooms have excellent storage with built-in California closet systems, while the updated bathroom includes both a glass-door walk-in shower AND a separate tub/shower stall. The detached garage also provides flexibility for use, as it currently is divided into a front area with bay door for open storage, and a back area with air-conditioning. The Windows were updated in 2015, ensuring efficiency and comfort, year-round. The central location and idyllic setting of this home will enrich your daily life, as you enjoy morning coffee on the porch while listening to the birds, take an afternoon stroll along the tree-lined streets of the neighborhood, and relax around the fire pit under the stars after a cookout with loved ones. Although it is just minutes away from the Polk Parkway and beloved local attractions, such as Lake Hollingsworth and Downtown Lakeland, here you will feel like you have stepped back in time and are tucked away from it all. This gem of property in the heart of Lakeland is truly one-of-a-kind!
