Active under contract - accepting backups. Do not miss out on your chance to get into one of Silverthorn's coveted maintenance-free villas with a private pool! Trim landscaping enhances the curb appeal of this charming 2 bed + den, 2 bath, 2 car garage villa home. This is one of the more spacious villas with over 1,700 square feet of living space and an open floor plan with a large great room. Imagine hosting your monthly book club meetings with friends, or casual family gatherings with everyone grazing off of the charcuterie board set on the breakfast bar. Cooks will love the kitchen - it's quite sizable with a center island, laminate counters, and cozy dining nook. Need flexible space? No problem, the bonus room would make an excellent den, home office, workout room, crafting area, or even a third bedroom. The master suite becomes your haven with lots of closet space and private access to the pool. The ensuite master bath offers dual sinks, a garden tub, and a separate shower. Never do your laundry in a hot garage again; the indoor utility room can double as a transitional entry from the garage. Grab your SPF, a towel, and your favorite beverage as you head through the enormous quadruple sliders in the great room out to the screen-enclosed lanai. It's the perfect spot to sip something icy while the shade keeps you protected from the Florida sun. And when you're ready to beat the heat, it's splashdown time in your very own in-ground pool! Silverthorn is a premier gated golf community. Cable and internet are included in your HOA fees, as are irrigation maintenance and repairs and landscaping. Additionally, you'll have access to some stellar amenities, which include a country club, full restaurant and bar, community center, fitness room, community pool, and so much more. The Silverthorn golf course, designed by Joe Lee, is award-winning, and poses an enjoyable challenge for both beginning golfers and pros, too. It's centrally located and minutes from the Gulf of Mexico; access to Tampa and the international airport via the Suncoast Parkway is quick and easy. There are plenty of dining and shopping options nearby. Anderson Snow Park, with its amazing sports complex, and Veterans Memorial Park, with its popular walking trails, are both less than 6 miles away. And don't forget to check out the world-famous mermaids at Weeki Wachee Springs State Park, which also has a canoe/kayak launch, and falls within a 10 mile radius, too. This is an absolute must-see home, make your appointment to view today!
