218 HARTRIDGE HILLS DR

About this home

Virtually Staged. Some homes are built to follow trends. Others are built to stand the test of time. Welcome to 218 NW Lake Hartridge Drive, where timeless craftsmanship meets beautiful renovations in one of Winter Haven's established gated communities, complete with private access to the Chain of Lakes. Built in 1988, this custom home offers something becoming increasingly difficult to find: character, quality construction, and architectural details that make a home truly special. From the moment you step inside, soaring ceilings, exposed wood beams, solid wood doors, and matching wood baseboards create a sense of warmth and character that simply cannot be replicated in today's cookie cutter construction. Thoughtfully renovated from top to bottom, this home beautifully balances its original charm with the comforts of modern living. Luxury vinyl plank flooring, fresh interior paint, updated lighting, and smooth ceilings provide a fresh, inviting atmosphere throughout. The beautifully remodeled kitchen features custom wood cabinetry, granite countertops, and matching Whirlpool appliances, while both bathrooms have been tastefully updated with beautiful tile finishes, wood vanities, Delta fixtures, and Kohler toilets. The spacious split bedroom floor plan offers privacy and flexibility, while the primary suite features new carpeting. Imagine the holidays here. A Christmas tree beneath those beautiful ceilings, Thanksgiving dinner surrounded by family, and the laughter of friends filling the living spaces. This is the kind of home that invites you to slow down, gather together, and create memories that last for generations. A home that feels curated rather than decorated, where the character is already there and the next chapter is yours to write. And while the character may be timeless, the improvements are anything but dated! A NEW ROOF installed in March 2026, new double insulated windows, new water heater, fresh exterior paint, updated irrigation, and professional landscaping provide peace of mind for years to come. The home has also passed a recent four point inspection. An attached two car garage and generous laundry room storage add everyday practicality. Beyond the front door, you'll discover an established gated neighborhood with mature surroundings and a wonderful sense of pride of ownership. Residents enjoy a private community dock and boat ramp with access to Winter Haven's beautiful Chain of Lakes, offering endless opportunities to enjoy life on the water. Even better, the HOA is just $150 per month and includes lawn mowing and fertilization, allowing you to spend more time enjoying your home and less time maintaining the lawn. If you've been searching for a home with substance, character, and quality, without sacrificing the updates and conveniences of today, this may be exactly what you've been waiting for. Because some homes aren't meant to look like every other home on the street. And that's precisely what makes them special. Welcome home to 218 NW Lake Hartridge Drive.
