Property Description
Welcome to 704 Butternut Place, a spacious and beautifully updated home in the sought-after Christina Oaks community of South Lakeland. With five bedrooms, three full bathrooms, and a bonus room, this property delivers the space, comfort, and flexibility your family has been looking for.
Step into a light-filled formal living and dining area—perfect for holidays or quiet evenings. At the heart of the home, the open-concept kitchen features modern countertops, a large island with seating, a built-in wine fridge, and sleek gray cabinetry, all flowing into a cozy family room with a fireplace for easy entertaining.
The primary suite is a private retreat with a walk-in closet, an updated bath with a garden tub, and French doors that open directly to your pool and spa. Outside, enjoy an expansive deck, fire pit, and a fully fenced backyard oasis with two gated entrances—great for relaxing weekends and get-togethers.
What truly sets this home apart is its versatile layout. With multiple living areas and separated bedroom wings, it easily functions as a multigenerational or in-law home—ideal for a guest suite, home office, game room, or private quarters for extended family.
Thoughtfully maintained and upgraded: new roof (2024), A/C (2022), updated ductwork (2021), new windows (2020), and a brand-new pool pump (May 2025). Bathrooms have been remodeled, interior and exterior freshly painted, plus irrigation system, gutters, and attic storage.
Located in a peaceful, established neighborhood with a low annual HOA of just $310, you're minutes from shopping, dining, great schools, and the Polk Parkway—offering smooth commutes to both Tampa and Orlando.
