Overview

If you have been looking high and low for a rare piece of architectural history, check out this BEAUTIFUL HISTORIC LAKEFRONT home built in 1917. Take a step back into a more simple time seeing what this vintage estate has to offer. This stunning property sits on a sprawling 1.54 acres of land with a long grassy driveway leading you straight into unobstructed lakefront views of Eagle Lake, a 647 acre, sandy bottom lake with incredible sunset views and amazing fishing. The property is very secluded and surrounded by orange groves. Imagine taking off in your seaplane for a quick, scenic trip over the beautiful Polk County and landing right in your backyard only a few steps away from your own front door. Recent updates to the home include a new lifetime metal roof installed in 2016, updated electrical, and both AC units have been serviced regularly. There was also a separation installed dividing the two floors creating a private and spacious upstairs apartment with its own separate entrance. The upstairs apartment showcases beautiful French doors that open up into an incredibly spacious living room with a wood burning fireplace, one of 4 working fireplaces in the home. Additionally, the upstairs apartment has its own private kitchen, bathroom, and extra rooms for living or storage space. This extra space could also be used for additional income by renting out to companies like Airbnb or VRBO. In the separate downstairs living area, the specialty and original regional pine dark hardwood floors give a warm feel that flows through the entire room, accompanied by a stone fireplace, accentuating the historic story this home has to offer. The back screened in porch follows the entire length of the house, perfect for watching sunrises or sunsets over Eagle Lake, sitting in an oak tree shaded swing, or just enjoying the fresh breeze on a quiet summer afternoon. A detached 3 car garage sits separately from the house where you can store your favorite collector cars and all your water-play toys. The entire site has irrigation throughout to keep your landscaping looking great year-round.
