2801 BUCKINGHAM AVE Lakeland, FL 33803

Fantastic mid century modern POOL home located on a highly desirable street directly off Lake Hollingsworth! This charming split level is an absolute delight to show - and a refreshing change from the cookie cutters built these days. Upon entering, the foyer leads back to a main bonus room - perfect as a second living room, or a billiards room, or a family theater, or a hobby room, or an office, or where to send the teenagers to, or or or... with a bath and access to back deck and pool area - so great for guest use too! Or from the foyer, hop up a 1/2 flight of well designed steps with deep treads on your left, and you are on the main living level with a spacious living room, dining room (both with hardwood floors and plantation shutters), and a kitchen overlooking the back deck - compete with real wood cabinets and updated appliances. Head up another 1/2 flight of steps and you are on the bedroom level - all with gleaming hard wood floors as well and each bedroom boasting its own bathroom, so no lines down the hall in the morning! Outside is a nice sized pool, a fenced yard and a bonus - a backyard underground bomb shelter (popular in the 1950's-60's) that can easily be extra storage space for pool equipment and outdoor furniture during the winter months. Both tennis courts and golf course are steps away and the Common Grounds park is right across the street- so plenty of activities conveniently located close to you! Lake Hollingsworth, the premier lake for biking, jogging, etc., is just a block away - and shopping and banks and restaurants are only a few minutes away. A superb location! Recently professionally painted interior and exterior(June 2023), A/C - replaced June 2022, new roof and deck within the last couple of years.
