Virtually Staged. Why wait to build when you can move into a home that's better than new? Built in 2025, this beautifully maintained 3-bedroom, 2-bath home is tucked inside Sand Lake Groves, Bartow's newest gated community by Southern Homes, where only 61 homes will be built for a true neighborhood feel. Conveniently located just off Highway 60, you'll enjoy quick access to shopping, restaurants, churches, schools, and everyday conveniences-all with NO CDD fees. Situated on an oversized .26-acre lot, this property offers a rare level of privacy with no neighbor on one side, no home behind, and no house across the street. Instead, you'll enjoy peaceful views of the community playground and mailboxes right from the front of the home. The bright, front-facing kitchen is filled with natural light and features granite countertops, stylish gray cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, and plenty of windows to take in the open view while you cook.  Step outside to the screened, enclosed porch, then onto the open concrete patio that's ready for grilling, relaxing, or gathering with family and friends. The fully privacy-fenced backyard offers plenty of room for pets or play. Inside, you'll appreciate thoughtful extras like a hidden locking storage room tucked off the primary closet-perfect for valuables, seasonal items, or personal belongings-as well as the convenience of the washer and dryer being included. If you've been searching for a move-in-ready home with modern finishes, exceptional privacy, and a location that keeps everything close by, this one deserves a spot at the top of your list.
