Welcome to this exceptional 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom home offering 2,070 square feet of comfortable living space on a desirable corner lot in Bartow’s peaceful Oakland neighborhood. More than $50,000 in upgrades and improvements have been completed within the past two years, including a brand-new HVAC system and a Generac whole-home generator installed in 2024. Add the Vivint security system, private screened-in-ground pool, spacious fenced backyard, and no HOA, and you have a home designed for comfort, convenience, and peace of mind. Inside, you'll find soaring vaulted ceilings, beautiful wood and tile flooring, and a spacious living area centered around a brick wood-burning fireplace. The open layout flows naturally into the formal dining area and a versatile secondary lounge space that can serve as a home office, sitting room, playroom, or additional gathering area. With direct access to the pool, this flexible space makes indoor-outdoor living especially convenient. The updated kitchen features solid-surface countertops, white cabinetry, a breakfast bar overlooking the living area, and all-new appliances installed in 2025. A new solar tube added in April 2026 brings additional natural light into the kitchen and living space.
