1515 Camphor Drive

Description

Charming mid-century block home on one of the prettiest streets in Lakeland - Camphor Drive - and directly across the street from Dobbins Park! This home on a large corner lot has had only two families, and the seller grew up right here. With some imagination and a little work, this home could truly be a Mid-Century Modern gem! Cash only, as the original vintage kerosene wall heater does not work, and parts cannot be found to fix it at this time. The previous carport was enclosed to create a primary bedroom with an en suite bathroom and laundry room, plus there are three other smaller bedrooms. The two full baths have the preservationist-coveted 4x4 1950s tile. The circle driveway entrance leads to a breakfast nook, kitchen with a lot of pantry space and a breakfast bar, and a large combo dining/living room, plus a Florida room with sliders to the back yard patio area. The rolled roof was replaced in 2019 and repaired in 2024, and it has had a termite warranty since it was tented in 2020. The yard is almost a third of an acre and has plenty of room for a pool and/or your toys! The Camphor Heights neighborhood is located in central Lakeland, near both Dixieland and Beacon Hill Historic Districts, so it is close to the vibrant Dixieland corridor with all of its shopping and dining, and a short distance to Lakeland's burgeoning and beautiful downtown and all that it has for the Florida lifestyle. No HOA and conveniently located between Tampa and Orlando - Lakeland is the place to be. Call to see this great home and imagine the possibilities!
