About 5261 Waterwood Way
Beautiful pool home on 3/4 of an acre (.74) in the small,quiet,sought-after neighborhood of Waterwood in Bartow,FL. This house sits right on the borderline with Highlands (South Lakeland). As you enter this no-outlet community,you are impressed with the majestic trees embellishing the serene surroundings. It's like getting into another dimension on the shores of Lake Hancock. Away from the crowd,yet near the amenities you need for a comfortable lifestyle. This house offers 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms on a 2,237 sq ft split floor plan with dedicated office and dining areas. The open concept allows you to entertain family and friends indoors or out. For those cool winter nights (even in Florida),warm yourself with hot cocoa in front of the wood-burning fireplace for picture-perfect memories. The main living space leads to a very welcoming oversized covered lanai and the enclosed refreshing pool. This area is also accessible from the primary bedroom,the main hallway,or the secondary bathroom. You will love the expansive fenced backyard,a paradise for little ones and pets to play safely,with room for storing your RV,boat,ATV,and other toys for grownups. Boat lovers will enjoy having a public ramp to Lake Hancock less than 3 miles away. And when you're in the mood for a different kind of fun,Walt Disney Parks,Universal Parks,and Downtown Tampa are under a 1-hour drive. Ready for the beaches?

Around the Bartow area,you have access to not one but six walking/biking/hiking scenic trails,including the Fort Fraser Trail,which you can walk to from the house.
