1896 Eloise Loop Rd., Winter Haven, FL 33884

This home, known as "The Pettigrew House" is located in Winter Haven, FL in the SE Area and has current effective life but 1925 old world charm. This is truly a remarkable creation of originality and restoration. The home features 4 bedrooms, 2 baths located on 2.2 acres, formal areas, wood flooring throughout, master suite on the first level, southern mansion porches and detached over sized garage. The original owner, the Pettigrew family, owned the acreage south and west of the property. The earlier home burned Christmas of 1924 due to a chimney fire and the current house is the 1925 rebuild, an American 4 Square picked by Mrs. Pettigrew, to remind her of the Texarkana mansion she grew up in. The fireplace upstairs was never lit (due to the 1924 experience), and the current owner has kept the tradition, never lighting the upstairs fireplace! This home has an abundance of documented history and tradition!
