About This Home
Don’t go see this home unless you’re ready to fall in love and write an offer. Welcome to this beautifully renovated starter home in the heart of Bartow. From the moment you arrive, you’ll notice the fresh landscaping and inviting curb appeal—but it’s what’s inside (and behind the walls) that really sets this one apart. This home has been thoughtfully updated from top to bottom, featuring a newer roof (within the last 5 years), brand new 2025 central A/C, and a 2026 water heater. The electrical system has been brought up to code, and most of the sewer drain lines have been recently replaced—giving you peace of mind on the big-ticket items. Step inside to find a completely refreshed interior with new flooring throughout, fresh paint inside and out, and a modern lighting package that ties it all together. The brand-new kitchen is ready for its first home-cooked meal, and a new stacked washer and dryer unit adds everyday convenience. Additional updates include termite treatment completed in 2025, making this home not just beautiful—but well-maintained and move-in ready. Perfect for first-time buyers or anyone looking for a worry-free home with major upgrades already done. Owner is a licensed real estate agent and the listing agent for this property.
