Property Description
Welcome to true lakefront living on the renowned Chain of Lakes in Winter Haven, perfectly positioned on Lake Shipp with approximately 500 feet of waterfrontage, an extremely rare offering that creates the feel of your own private park right in your backyard. Built in 2021 with block-on-slab construction and a durable metal roof, this 3-bedroom, 3-bathroom home was designed to maximize water views and effortless indoor-outdoor living. Inside, you'll find soaring ceilings and an open layout that flows seamlessly into the kitchen, featuring 42-inch cabinetry, quartz countertops, a large island, pantry, and a dine-in area-ideal for entertaining or everyday living. Large 8-foot sliding glass doors open out to a fully screened lanai that spans the entire width of the living area, creating a true extension of the home and the perfect place to relax while overlooking the water. The split floor plan offers privacy, with a spacious primary suite positioned to capture lake views, complete with a large walk-in closet and a spa-style en-suite bathroom featuring double vanities and a walk-in shower. One of the additional bedrooms also features its own en-suite bathroom, creating a secondary primary suite-ideal for guests or multi-generational living. The remaining bedroom is well-sized and positioned for convenience. Step outside and embrace the lifestyle this property was built for. With your own private dock, you can moor your boat and enjoy direct access to the Chain of Lakes. Cruise across to local favorites like Harborside Restaurant and take in some of the best sunsets Central Florida has to offer. Additional features include plantation shutters on the front of the home, a spacious indoor laundry room, a detached storage shed, and a rare drive-through 3-car garage with access from the front all the way to the backyard-perfect for boats, trailers, or additional vehicles.
