About this home
1230 S ORANGE AVENUE
For buyers who value authenticity, craftsmanship, and legacy, this 1933 historic home presents a truly rare opportunity. Owned by the same family since 1965 and offered for the first time in decades, this property reflects generations of thoughtful care and stewardship and is expected to be highly sought after near Bartow’s historic district. Original architectural character has been carefully preserved while major systems—including electrical, plumbing, sewer, HVAC, and roofing(2016)—have been updated since present owners bought it, allowing buyers to enjoy historic charm without the typical concerns of older homes. Refinished solid oak hardwood floors, crown molding, and custom plantation shutters on every window, including the garage, showcase the home’s enduring quality and attention to detail. Generous room proportions, including two oversized bedrooms with walk-in closets, honor the home’s original design while providing modern livability. Offering 1,716 square feet of heated and cooled living space and 2,330 total square feet under roof, the home also features a fenced and partially pet-fenced backyard, irrigation system, monitored security system, transferable Terminix termite contract, a carport, and a detached two-car garage with a new overhead door. Ideally located near a city park with new pickleball courts and just minutes from downtown Bartow’s shops and dining, this legacy property blends timeless character with modern peace of mind.
