About 2709 Fairmount Ave

PRICED BELOW APPRAISED VALUE, this Charming Historic home in Central Lakeland has NO HOA and is nestled on a quiet brick street within coveted walking distance of Lake Hollingsworth, Lakeland Country Club, Common Ground “inclusive” playground, Beerman Family Tennis complex, and Cleveland Heights Golf Course. It’s also close to downtown with its local shops, restaurants, farmer’s market, community theater, botanical garden and free community lakes, parks, water-play and frequent events. Midway between Tampa and Orlando, it’s a short drive to two international airports, amusement parks, and college and major league sports such as football, basketball, baseball, hockey, and soccer. Spacious and cozy, enjoy both the classic original features and modern updates in this 100+ years old, 2,420 sq ft home. Traditional and timeless, you’ll appreciate the wood floors, glass doorknobs, and “sunroom” bathed in natural light. The renovated kitchen has custom wood cabinetry, plentiful stone counter space, stainless appliances and a 5-BURNER COOKTOP connected to the rarely found PUBLIC NATURAL GAS line. Relax and entertain in the large living and dining rooms or in the lushly landscaped backyard on two lighted patios off the kitchen, one covered and one open. FOUR BEDROOMS and 2.5 BATHS include a room on the main floor to use as a bedroom, home office or a 2nd flex room in addition to the sunroom. Primary bedroom has four bright windows, a WALK-IN CLOSET, and atypically for an older home, an ENSUITE BATH with WALK-IN SHOWER, GARDEN TUB, and private water closet. Like the rest of the house, two secondary bedrooms also have ABUNDANT NATURAL LIGHT and a connecting door to use or ignore as it suits you. INSIDE LAUNDRY room offers more space to customize for best use, and, like the half bath, is easily accessed from inside or out. Enjoy the nearly new HOT TUB behind the PRIVACY FENCING surrounding the yard and hiding the discreetly located STORAGE SHED WITH ELECTRICITY and space for toys, equipment, and other treasures. 50-YEAR METAL ROOF has plenty of remaining life, HVAC system is only ONE YEAR OLD, and for maximum efficiency and minimum cost, a 2022 TANKLESS WATER HEATER is powered by natural gas! CIRCULAR DRIVEWAY enables off-street parking at this historic gem...make an appointment to see it soon!
