2016 SEMINOLE TRAIL LAKELAND FL 33803 Sold 10/15/2025

Overview of 2016 Seminole Trl

Built in 1926 and affectionately known as the floyd house, this historic lakeland treasure has been thoughtfully updated to preserve its timeless character while adding all the comforts of modern living. Fresh exterior paint and recent termite treatment mean it’s move-in ready, but what makes this home truly special is the story it tells with every detail. From the brick sidewalk that leads you to a wide, covered front porch perfect for rocking chairs and sweet tea afternoons, to the glass front door that opens into a grand entryway anchored by a stunning wooden staircase, the craftsmanship of the past is alive and well here. Original hardwood floors stretch throughout, accented by classic tile in the bathrooms, and the living room invites you to unwind with its cozy brick fireplace, coffered ceilings, and generous windows that flood the space with natural light. Just beyond is the florida room, a cheerful, window-wrapped space begging to be used as a sunroom, reading nook, or playful gathering spot. The kitchen blends old and new with sleek cabinetry, golden hardware, stainless steel appliances, and light stone countertops — all complemented by a charming laundry area with extra counter space and a backyard view. The formal dining room shines with natural light from its large window and built-in window seat, while french doors give it the option of privacy, making it equally perfect for holiday dinners or casual game nights. Upstairs, the master bedroom feels like a retreat with its own brick fireplace and updated en-suite bath featuring a walk-in shower with striking tile work, while guest bedrooms offer built-ins, dual closets, and plenty of sunshine. Outside, a spacious backyard shaded by a historic tree is the perfect spot for weekend barbecues or hammock lounging, and the detached two-car garage with double driveway and private gate adds convenience and peace of mind. Beyond the charm and updates, the home’s history is part of what makes it extraordinary — originally tied to laura t. Wiggins, one of the first women in the area to own property after winning a court battle in 1920, and later serving as a guest home before becoming part of beacon hill, this house has always been ahead of its time. Today, it stands ready for a new chapter, offering not just a place to live, but a chance to own a unique piece of lakeland’s past filled with warmth, character, and endless charm.
