Located at 3450 Crews Lake Dr., Lakeland, FL, 33813, this unique property offers a glimpse into Polk County&#8217;s rich history. With 4 bedrooms and 2 baths, the house spans a generous 3,699 square feet and sits on a massive lot size of 2.04 acres.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"580\" height=\"326\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1110px) 100vw, 1110px\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/lakelandgazette.info\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/image-9.jpeg?resize=580%2C326&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-37580\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/lakelandgazette.info\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/image-9.jpeg?w=580&amp;ssl=1 580w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/lakelandgazette.info\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/image-9.jpeg?resize=300%2C169&amp;ssl=1 300w\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">What makes this house truly special is its fascinating backstory. Originally, a portion of the primary home was the First Baptist Church in Bartow, constructed in 1883. This makes it the oldest Single Family Home in Lakeland, according to public records. In 1947, the house was moved to its current location across from Crews Lake and underwent a transformation into an &#8220;English-style&#8221; home, as reported in newspapers at the time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Despite the passage of time, the house has been lovingly maintained and updated while still preserving many of its charming features, both inside and out. Approaching the main house from the long driveway is a breathtaking experience. Quintessential details, such as the mailbox, add to the overall allure of this historic property.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">While the house has already been sold, it is worth appreciating the unique history and character it possesses. This once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to own a piece of Polk County history is a testament to the enduring charm and allure of this remarkable home.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A historic 2-story house near Lakeland, Florida recently sold for an impressive&nbsp;$1,009,900&nbsp;on October 20th.
