Driving through the gated entrance of Cascades at Southern Hills, you’re immediately greeted by oak-lined streets and a sense of tranquility. This 55+ community is tucked within Florida’s natural beauty, offering peace and privacy while still connecting you to an active lifestyle. One of the unique advantages here is the optional social membership to the Southern Hills Plantation Club that is available. As you arrive at the home, the brick-paved driveway and manicured landscaping set a welcoming tone. Inside, soaring ceilings and tall doors immediately create a sense of spaciousness. The open-concept design blends the kitchen, dining, and great room into a bright, inviting space. The kitchen is both stylish and practical, with stainless steel appliances, quartz countertops, a gas stove, and a generous island for meals, prep, or conversation. Plantation shutters frame the windows, adding a timeless touch to every room. The owner’s suite is a retreat designed for comfort, complete with a walk-in closet and a beautiful, large walk-in shower in the ensuite bath. A flexible bonus room just off the suite is ideal for a home office, den, or hobby space. Guests will enjoy their own comfortable bedroom and nearby full bath, offering privacy for everyone. Perhaps one of the most appealing features is the enclosed and screened patio, already completed for you, overlooking the landscaped backyard with added palms and plantings. It’s the perfect spot to enjoy your morning coffee or an evening breeze without the extra expense and wait that comes with a new build. Additional upgrades include a power shade, ceiling fans in every room (and on the porch), custom lighting, self-closing cabinets, and a water softener system. A 5-ton Trane AC provides efficient comfort, and the 10-year transferable structural warranty offers peace of mind for years to come. The washer and dryer are also included, making move-in effortless. Living here means more than just the home itself. The HOA covers cable, lawn mowing, fertilizing, pest treatments, and irrigation, giving you time to enjoy the community amenities. Take a swim in the lap pool, join a pickleball match, or relax by the fire pits with friends. The clubhouse offers both fitness and leisure, creating a lifestyle as active or relaxed as you choose. This home combines the charm of an established residence with the benefits of newer construction, plus the advantage of thoughtful upgrades already in place. Come experience it for yourself and see why Cascades at Southern Hills is more than just a neighborhood; it’s a way of life.
