From the listing

TWO YEARS YOUNG in Hillsborough County's Only LAGOON Community: TRANSFERRABLE BUILDER'S WARRANTY Included! Built in 2024 and lovingly maintained by its original owner, this 1695 sq ft townhome gives you everything buyers love about new construction without the wait, the construction dust, or the builder's current price tag. Step through the front door into a bright foyer where ceramic tile runs across the entire first level--no carpet in the high-traffic zones. The entry opens into a dining area that flows without interruption into the heart of the home. And what a heart it is. The kitchen anchors the main level with a generous QUARTZ center island with room for bar seating along one side: the spot where morning coffee happens, where homework gets spread out, where guests gather while you cook. STAINLESS STEEL appliances, subway tile backsplash, deep cabinetry that actually holds what you own, and a walk-in pantry. Sightlines stay open across the island to the living room, so whoever's cooking is never cut off from the conversation. Sliders pour natural light into the living space and open onto your covered, SCREENED LANAI--morning coffee, evening wind-down, weekend grilling. Under the staircase, a bonus storage closet, and a half bath sits discreetly off the living area so guests never head upstairs. Up the stairs, a central landing opens to all three bedrooms, keeping the sleeping quarters private and separate from the entertaining level below. The primary suite sits at the front with a WALK-IN CLOSET and an ensuite with DUAL SINK VANITY--no more taking turns on weekday mornings--and a walk-in shower. Two additional bedrooms provide real flexibility: guest room, home office, gym. Both have generous closets and share a second full bath. A hallway linen closet adds storage, and the laundry room is right here on the bedroom level, where the laundry actually is. Built better, not just newer! All-concrete block construction on both the first and second stories, not just the ground floor like many townhomes. Pair that with low-E windows, a heat pump HVAC, irrigation system, and D.R. Horton's Home is Connected smart home technology, and you have a home built for Florida's climate and Florida's insurance market. And here's what truly sets this one apart: the balance of the builder's structural warranty is fully transferable to the new owner. New-construction peace of mind on a home already settled, already landscaped, already proven, with blinds, appliances, and washer and dryer in place. No punch list. No waiting. No thousands in post-closing extras! Southshore Bay is Hillsborough County's only Lagoon community. Five acres of crystal-clear blue water sit at the center of it all, with sandy beaches, a water slide, a swim-up bar, kayaking, paddleboards, and a resident events calendar that turns an ordinary Saturday into a vacation day. Beyond the lagoon: a gated setting, walking and golf cart paths, and dog parks. ULTRAFi high-speed internet and cable are wired into the community, and your internet, water, sewer, and grounds maintenance are all rolled into the monthly HOA. Just off State Road 674 and minutes from I-75, putting Downtown Tampa, St. Pete, and Sarasota within easy reach. The Bay is about fifteen minutes out, with golf, shopping, and dining close by. Two years old. Original owner. Transferable warranty. Lagoon lifestyle. Homes like this don't sit long--schedule your private showing today.
