DRASTIC PRICE REDUCTION!!! ATTENTION INVESTORS, FLIPPERS & CONTRACTORS: THIS HOME IS FOR YOU!!! This once-lovely GEM at 4631 Dakeman Rd, Lakeland, FL features 5 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, 2 car garage on nearly 1 ACRE LOT in a NO HOA & NO CDD zone! There is LIMITLESS POTENTIAL WITH THIS AMAZING PROPERTY! Key exterior features in this CUSTOM BUILT HOME are GORGEOUS BRICK front elevation & MASSIVE long driveway & parking pad leading to the oversized garage. In this FULLY FENCED YARD, you’ll find green grass for your furry friends to run & play as well as mature TROPICAL landscaping including MAJESTIC grandfather oaks, azalea bushes, ferns, bromeliads & roses. The OPEN FLOOR PLAN consists of the foyer, kitchen, living, family & dining rooms. The kitchen features newer appliances, pantry closet, stainless steel double sink with gooseneck faucet & breakfast bar that overlooks into the family room. Off the family room, there is access to the HUGE lanai through the triple French doors. The lanai sustained damage from Hurricane Ian with a tree branch clipping the corner. Some FABULOUS features of the home are the updated ceramic tiles laid diagonally in the kitchen, foyer, laundry, living, dining & family rooms as well as the BEAUTIFUL crown molding in the open spaces, plantation shutters for the front window in the formal living room & VINTAGE CRYSTAL chandeliers that are coming back to fashion. The master bedroom can easily accommodate king-size furniture & has a private bathroom with step-in shower, hexagonal tile floors, antique lamps & pocket door for privacy. In this split bedroom plan, the remaining bedrooms #2, 3 & 4 are found on the opposite side of the home. They each have a ceiling fan & ample closet space. A SUPER UNIQUE feature is that the front bedroom has a separate entrance from the front of the house. This is PERFECT for someone who needs a home office or runs a business & wants to invite clients directly into this office/bedroom without accessing the rest of the home. The second bathroom has a jetted garden tub & expansive vanity. This home is IDEAL FOR MULTI-GENERATIONAL LIVING because the GIGANTIC 5th bedroom is EASILY AN IN-LAW SUITE with direct access from the side yard. This BONUS ROOM has built-in shelving/closet, PREMIUM wood cabinets, desk & a WIDE OPEN AREA TO DESIGN YOUR ULTIMATE ROOM. From the bonus room, you can walk into the garage or use the other door to walk through the dedicated laundry room. Naturally, the LUCKY CASH BUYER needs to do their due diligence. The old roof is currently leaking as seen by the multiple ceiling stains throughout the home & the HVAC does not work. There is a 20′ x 18′ shed that is most likely a tear-down. The condition of the home is already reflected in this price. There is a LOT OF SWEAT EQUITY IN THIS HOUSE! Can you transform it to an ELEGANT BEAUTY? The location is SUPERB near sport complexes, restaurants, shopping, schools, places of worship, medical plazas, beaches & tourist attractions. MAKE THIS YOUR FUTURE HOME!
