Virtually Staged. GATED COMMUNITY | NEW FRESH PAINT THROUGHOUT | PRIMARY SUITE ON THE FIRST FLOOR

Behind the gates of Tuscany at Tampa Palms: a 3-bedroom, 3.5-bath, 2,295 square foot two-story built in 2013 by Taylor Morrison.

Open the door and the living room lifts over your head with its TWO-STORY HIGH CEILING. Light comes down from the second-floor windows and travels across the room all day. Sliding glass doors open the back of the house to the patio and let the fresh air in with it. This is the room where the music goes on, the grill gets going, and everyone ends up in the same place anyway. NEW FRESH PAINT carries wall to wall, bright and clean in every room.

THE PRIMARY SUITE IS ON THE FIRST FLOOR, a wing of your own at the end of a long day, with a walk-in closet and a dual-vanity bath.

The entire second floor belongs to everyone else. Two bedrooms, two full bathrooms, and an open loft that grows with you: homework table this year, movie room the next.

Downstairs, a laundry room of its own, a powder bath off the foyer for company, and a covered front porch made for morning coffee.

TILE AND LUXURY VINYL THROUGHOUT THE HOME. NO CARPET.

Step out the sliding doors and the lawn keeps going. Open common grounds run alongside the home and sweep down to the community pond, association-maintained and simply there for you. Room to walk the dog, toss a ball, or take the long way home.

Then there is New Tampa, built around recreation. Tampa Palms Golf and Country Club sits two miles away with an Arthur Hills 18-hole course, eleven Har-Tru tennis courts, a junior-Olympic saltwater pool, fitness center and dining. The New Tampa Family YMCA is minutes up Compton Drive with an Olympic-size pool, a full wellness floor, outdoor conditioning area, playground, swim lessons and youth sports. The Tampa Palms park system spreads across the area: Compton Park with a heated junior-Olympic pool, tennis, pickleball, basketball, sand volleyball, playground and community center; Hampton Park with athletic fields, lighted tennis and a pavilion; Amberly Park with twelve acres of playground and jogging trails; Oak Park with ten conservation acres; and River Park, forty-five acres along the Hillsborough River. LA Fitness, Crunch and ESporta Fitness are close by. Access and membership vary by facility and are entirely at the buyer’s discretion.

Open to everyone: the Bruce B. Downs Trail runs seven paved miles along the boulevard for running, walking and biking. New Tampa Center offers a gymnastics facility with Olympic apparatus and a bi-level skate park, and New Tampa Nature Park adds more trail. Flatwoods Conservation Park opens seven more miles of paved loop plus off-road bike trails and picnic grounds under the pines, dogs welcome. AdventHealth Center Ice brings hockey, figure skating and open skate. The Shops at Wiregrass, Tampa Premium Outlets and Cypress Creek Town Center do the rest.

YOUR LAWN IS MAINTAINED BY THE ASSOCIATION, which mows, edges, trims, fertilizes and maintains the irrigation on your lot. Saturday belongs to you again.

Flood Zone X. No flood insurance required.

Minutes to Bruce B. Downs Boulevard and Interstate 75. About 11 minutes to AdventHealth Tampa, 12 to the James A. Haley VA Hospital, 14 to Moffitt Cancer Center, 15 to the University of South Florida. Tampa International Airport is about 35 minutes. Publix at Tampa Palms is a 6-minute errand.
