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.

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.
