True 4-bedroom, 3-bath home with dual primary suites. Private pool. Detached workshop. No HOA. South Lakeland. Homes offering this level of space, flexibility, and freedom almost never come to market in 33813. This rare South Lakeland property features a true 4-bedroom, 3-bath layout with two primary suites, a private screened pool, a detached workshop, and no HOA restrictions—all in a location where convenience, schools, and commute times genuinely matter. Designed for buyers who need flexibility, the thoughtfully planned floor plan supports multigenerational living, long-term guests, or work-from-home lifestyles with ease. One of the primary suites functions as a true private retreat, offering separation, space, and independence well beyond a standard bedroom—an increasingly difficult find in this area. The detached workshop truly sets this property apart. With approximately 12-foot ceilings and electrical service, it provides functional space for projects, hobbies, storage, or work vehicles—an amenity that is increasingly rare and nearly impossible to recreate in South Lakeland today. Outdoor living is a defining feature. A large covered patio, private pool, and generous outdoor gathering space create a natural extension of the home—ideal for entertaining or everyday enjoyment. Unlike many newer shallow-design pools, this pool offers usable depth for real swimming, relaxing, and year-round Florida living. The home reflects an extensive six-figure investment in major system upgrades, infrastructure, and outdoor living improvements, allowing the next owner to move in with confidence rather than a repair list. Updates include windows, HVAC, plumbing throughout the home and septic lines, exterior doors, interior flooring, bathroom cabinetry, interior and exterior paint, stamped concrete hardscape, and a newly constructed detached workshop—addressing the most expensive and disruptive projects buyers typically face. Functionally larger than county records reflect. Although tax records list approximately 2,400 square feet, the home offers closer to 2,700 square feet of usable living and flex space, providing added value while benefiting from lower property taxes. Buyer to verify. Durable updated laminate flooring anchors the main living areas, while tile in the kitchen, bathrooms, and mudroom provides everyday durability and easy maintenance. Location is a meaningful advantage. Situated approximately 1.1 miles from the Polk Parkway, the home offers noticeably shorter commute times compared to more distant neighborhoods, with efficient access to downtown Lakeland, Tampa, Orlando, and major corridors. Nearby Publix, shopping, dining, and medical facilities are just minutes away, reducing daily drive time. A planned Orlando Health medical campus within approximately one mile highlights continued investment and long-term convenience in the immediate area. The property is located within approximately one mile of Highland Grove Elementary (buyer to verify school assignments). This is not a cookie-cutter home. It is a property built for buyers who know exactly what they need—and understand how rare it is to find it all in one place. Out-of-state buyers welcome. Virtual tours available. Some photos have been virtually staged and/or digitally enhanced. County records reflect a different bedroom/bath count. Home is currently configured and used as a 4-bedroom, 3-bath. Buyer to verify to their satisfaction.
