Property Description
Enjoy true Florida waterfront living at 4742 Cypress Dr in Lake Wales. Available fully furnished. This home sits on a canal with direct access to Lake Pierce, a 3,700-acre Old Florida lake known for peaceful views and excellent bass and speck fishing. An updated seawall, covered dock with two boat slips, and quick access to the open lake make this a great spot for boating and relaxing by the water. The extra-large corner lot offers plenty of room for boats, RVs, or trailers, plus a rear concrete driveway backing directly to the canal and a storage shed for fishing gear, kayaks, and outdoor toys. Inside, the home features a bright Florida room with a new mini-split, an open living and dining area, and a kitchen with stainless steel appliances and breakfast bar. Recent updates include a new roof on the home and shed (2022) and a central A/C replaced in 2018. With a public boat ramp about a mile away, this home is perfect as a full-time residence, seasonal getaway, or weekend lake escape. Available fully furnished.
