About this home

Room for everyone — and income potential too — on nearly 2.5 gated acres! This unique Plant City property features a 1,792 sq ft bungalow with a brand-new roof, a beautifully renovated 492 sq ft detached accessory dwelling unit/guest house, for 2,284 sq ft of total living space, plus a separate hobby house with electric and a large storage shed. The detached ADU creates an exciting opportunity for extended family, multigenerational living, guests, a private office, or potential rental income that may help offset your monthly housing expense. Ask about creative financing programs that may make this one-of-a-kind property even more attainable. Create the homesteading lifestyle you've been imagining with wide-open spaces and room to make the property your own. The screened, enclosed porch was made for Florida's year-round lifestyle — morning coffee, evening breezes, and time to unwind while overlooking your own gated acreage. Peace on earth! This beautifully preserved 1940s retreat is filled with vintage character and has been genuinely cared for through the years, now freshly relaunched with a brand-new roof for even greater peace of mind. The AC is in excellent condition, the wiring has been updated, pest maintenance has been performed every three months, and recent improvements also include a new water heater and refurbished side porch. Surrounded by higher-end estates, the property offers AS-1 zoning, no HOA, no CDD, and no flood insurance required. That zoning gives you the freedom to make the property work for your lifestyle — bring your plans. The main home welcomes you with generously sized bedrooms, comfortable living spaces, and an oversized dining room anchored by a wood-burning fireplace, creating a natural gathering place for family and friends and the perfect setting for holiday celebrations. The renovated ADU is a standout feature, offering its own beautiful, functional living space and the flexibility to serve as an income-producing rental, private accommodations for extended family, or a separate work-from-home retreat. The additional hobby house provides even more dedicated space for projects, passions, or storage. Step outside to a peaceful oasis of mature landscaping, fruit trees, and an abundant supply of avocados, with fencing already in place for your furry Fidos. With nearly 2.5 acres, there's plenty of room for gardens, workshops, recreational space, additional storage, RV parking, and more. Conveniently located with access to I-4, Tampa, and Orlando, this property offers a rare combination of character, acreage, privacy, flexibility, and income potential. Whether you're drawn to the charm of bungalow living, the opportunity to generate income from the ADU, the freedom of acreage, or simply the privacy of wide-open surroundings, this is more than a home. It's a place to settle in, breathe deep, and live freely — with a brand-new roof overhead.
