Property Description

One or more photo(s) has been virtually staged. Welcome to a slice of Old Florida living in Fort Meade, where wide open spaces and quiet surroundings set the tone while still being centrally located between Tampa and Orlando with easy access to Lakeland, Lake Wales, Bartow, and Winter Haven. Set back on the property down a private driveway, this spacious 4 bedroom, 2.5 bath home offers a sense of privacy from the moment you arrive. Inside, you will find two inviting living areas and a rare dual kitchen layout with a completely updated main kitchen and a second full kitchen upstairs, making it ideal for entertaining or multi-generational living.The main kitchen features stainless steel appliances, leather granite countertops, soft close cabinetry, a breakfast bar with a barn tin farmhouse accent, and a custom walnut countertop with a river style epoxy design. The space opens to the living room, where a wood burning fireplace with a hand hewn mantle creates a warm and welcoming gathering area. French doors on the second level open to a deck overlooking the countryside, while French doors on the first floor lead out to steps that take you down into the sprawling backyard, creating a natural flow between indoor comfort and outdoor living. Recent updates include the fully remodeled kitchen, a 2025 well, and HVAC ductwork replaced in 2023. Out front, take in stunning sunset views across the expansive yard where the sounds of nature replace the pace of the city, while the back of the home offers both first and second story porches connected by a wooden staircase. The oversized, air-conditioned 3-car garage offers front and rear entry access along with a restroom, creating a great space for projects, storage, or a workshop. Outside, the oversized lot gives you the freedom to make it your own with mature persimmon trees, plenty of room to roam, and a steer pen already in place for those looking to bring animals or enjoy a more rural lifestyle. This is the kind of property that feels tucked away yet connected, offering space, flexibility, and that classic Old Florida charm.
