Overview

Under contract-accepting backup offers. POOL JUST HAD NEW PLASTER DONE! USE SELLER PREFERRED LENDER AND LENDER WILL CONTRIBUTE 1% TOWARD RATE BUY-DOWN OR POINTS. Tucked inside the sought-after Oakwood Golf Community in Lake Wales, this beautifully maintained and thoughtfully updated 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom home offers the kind of move-in-ready comfort buyers are hoping to find—but rarely do. Set on a manicured lot surrounded by mature landscaping, the property immediately welcomes you with curb appeal and continues to impress once inside.

Vaulted ceilings and abundant natural light create an airy feel throughout the home, while the well-designed split floorplan provides the perfect balance of openness and privacy. The spacious primary suite is privately positioned on one side of the home and features sliding glass doors that lead directly out to the screened lanai and pool, giving you a peaceful retreat with effortless indoor-outdoor living. A beautiful passthrough wood-burning fireplace connects the primary suite and living room, adding warmth, charm, and character to both spaces.

The main living areas flow seamlessly into an updated kitchen designed for both everyday living and entertaining. Highlights include Corian countertops, a newly installed backsplash and sink, and nearly all appliances replaced within the last year. Luxury vinyl plank flooring runs throughout the entire home, complemented by fresh interior paint completed within the last year and a half. Updated lighting, modern hardware, and ceiling fans in every bedroom and throughout the outdoor living space add to the home’s polished and cohesive feel.

Step outside and discover the true highlight of the property — an expansive screened lanai and pool area designed for relaxing and entertaining. The HEATED Pool was just replastered March 2026. The covered patio is wired for surround sound and includes a mounted outdoor television that stays with the home, creating the perfect setup for gatherings or quiet evenings by the pool. The second bathroom conveniently serves as a pool bath with direct lanai access.

The home also offers several valuable upgrades and smart features, including a sprinkler system on its own well with a brand-new pump and app-controlled operation. A new pool pump, freshly cleaned gutters, and recent exterior power washing ensure the home is just as well cared for outside as it is inside. Major systems provide additional peace of mind with a roof and water heater only four years old and a UV light installed in the AC system to help improve indoor air quality. There's also a Culligan Water Softener and the entire home is also wired for surround sound.

Location is another standout feature, placing you just 15 minutes from local shopping and dining, about 30 minutes from Legoland, and roughly 90 minutes from Tampa, Orlando, and the world-famous Disney theme parks. Many furnishings are negotiable outside of the sale, creating a rare opportunity for buyers looking for a truly turnkey home.

Homes this well maintained with a private pool, thoughtful upgrades, and a location in the Oakwood Golf Community don’t stay available for long. Schedule your private tour and experience this move-in ready home for yourself!
