3525 DOREEN DRIVE Tucked away in an area with no HOA, this 3-bedroom, 2-bath concrete block home in Lakeland checks a lot of boxes with 1, 323 sqft. Fresh paint and laminate flooring run through the main living areas, with tile in the bedrooms and bathrooms, giving the home a clean, updated feel throughout. The kitchen features white shaker cabinets, granite countertops, and stainless steel appliances. The primary bath is a standout — a walk-in tiled shower with a built-in bench and rainfall showerhead makes it feel more spa than starter. Out front, a covered porch with wood beam detail gives the home strong curb appeal. The screened back porch is the kind of space you'll actually use — large enough for a dining set and seating area, with views of a fully fenced backyard. A metal carport on a concrete slab adds covered parking and storage, and with no HOA there's plenty of room for a boat, trailer, or extra vehicles. Major systems are well maintained: roof (2017), air handler (2016), exterior AC unit (2021), septic serviced (2022). Close to shopping, dining, and parks in north Lakeland.
