This pool home sits a few blocks off Lake Shipp in Winter Haven, on a big fenced lot with a storage shed and a long covered porch. Inside there is an updated kitchen with stainless appliances and a den with a wood-plank ceiling.
Photographed for Tiffani Kline.
What We Shot, And Why
Ranch homes photograph best at their true height, so we kept the exteriors low and level — the long front porch, the pool with its wide deck, and the yard running back to the fence line. The drone added the two shots a sign in the yard can’t: the lot line drawn around the property, and Lake Shipp sitting just down the street. We finished with a twilight exterior under a Winter Haven sunset.
About the Area
Lake Shipp anchors the south end of Winter Haven’s Chain of Lakes, with a public boat ramp and open water minutes away. The streets around it are older, established neighborhoods where ranch homes sit on generous fenced lots. For buyers who want lake life without lakefront prices, this part of Winter Haven is where they look.
