    Virtually Staged. Historic Distinction in the Heart of Lakeland! Welcome to the William and Barbara Wright House, circa 1920—recipient of the 2025 Residential Historic Preservation Award for Outstanding Rehabilitation, presented by Historic Lakeland, Inc. and the City of Lakeland’s Historic Preservation Board. Originally built in 1920, this remarkable home was relocated from 717–719 Orange Street just over 3.5 years ago and has been fully restored inside and out, blending timeless charm with modern convenience. Every detail has been thoughtfully updated in 2025, making this residence truly move-in ready. Offering a split plan with 3 spacious bedrooms and 2 beautifully finished bathrooms, the home features an open living, dining, and kitchen design with 1,592 heated square feet (1,859 total). Light and bright interiors are enhanced by wood-look tile floors, 8” baseboards, a functioning non-woodburning gas fireplace, glass doorknobs, classic millwork, and fresh paint throughout. The stunning kitchen includes all-new soft-close cabinetry, granite counters, an island with seating, a huge walk-in pantry, and a GE stainless steel appliance package—washer and dryer included! The primary suite boasts a spa-like bath with granite counters, dual vanities, a spacious walk-in closet, and a large glass-enclosed shower. Additional updates include: new roof, new A/C, new plumbing and electrical, new ductwork, tankless gas water heater, pull-down attic stairs with abundant storage, and all new insulation. Curb appeal shines with a rocking-chair front porch featuring Trex decking, brick steps and walkways, and a brick driveway with rear parking. All this in the highly desirable Lake Morton Historic District—just steps from Hollis Gardens, Lake Mirror Promenade, Lake Morton, downtown shops, restaurants, and cultural attractions. This is not just a home—it’s a piece of Lakeland history brought beautifully into today.
