Property Description
Rare opportunity to restore a three-story historic residence near downtown Bartow, offered at $299,000 and intentionally priced to allow for thoughtful renovation and long-term value creation. Properties of this scale, character, and location are increasingly difficult to find at this price point. The home features oak wood floors, tile flooring, central air with two A/C systems (upstairs and downstairs), a metal roof, and two full kitchens, offering flexibility for future use. Bathrooms with tubs are located upstairs, while the main level includes a welcoming entry with a built-in bar, a large pantry, and extensive storage-including an under-staircase closet. An exterior exit from the second floor adds functional versatility. The third-level attic offers substantial storage and the potential to be finished, highlighted by a distinctive window that enhances natural light and architectural character. The absence of a full bathroom on the main level reflects the home's historic layout and provides an opportunity for reconfiguration as part of a renovation plan. Conveniently located near US-98, downtown Bartow, shopping, dining, fitness centers, local produce stands, the courthouse, and approximately 5 minutes from the hospital. About 15 minutes from Polk State College. This property is well-suited for buyers seeking a renovation project with strong bones, historic charm, and upside potential. Cash buyers strongly preferred. Schedule a showing to evaluate the opportunity firsthand.
