Walk to everything from this cozy cottage located right in the heart of Lakeland's Dixieland Historic District! All three of the town's most popular and centralized lakes are just a short stroll from home, as are the iconic Frank Lloyd Wright-designed buildings on Florida Southern College's campus. Enjoy exploring the historic district while taking in the sights around town and making your way through charming cafes, shops, and eateries. Family-friendly Bonnet Springs is just a short drive away, and Tampa and Orlando each offer easy day trip opportunities if you're looking to hit the theme parks.

When you're not out and about, take a load off on the screened porch or stretch out for some leisurely outdoor living in the large, fully fenced-in backyard. A deluxe Blackstone grill sets the stage for family barbecues.

While vintage charm abounds around the home's exterior, the interior is a model of modern design and comfort. Unique touches throughout the home serve to showcase and highlight the city's local businesses and landmarks, adding an added depth of local flavor. A full suite of stainless steel kitchen appliances makes it easy to whip up all your favorite home-cooked meals. An updated sofa and smart TV are ready to welcome casual downtime. Updated bedding and a smart TV in each bedroom provide an added dose of private comfort and convenience. Home essentials include central air-conditioning, free WiFi, and a private washer/dryer.
