Welcome to a side of Florida you may not expect to find. Set among the rolling hills, mature oaks and beautiful surroundings of Southern Hills, this NEVER-LIVED-IN FORMER MODEL HOME offers 3,890 square feet of thoughtfully designed living space with 5 bedrooms, 4.5 baths, DUAL OWNER'S SUITES and a 3-CAR GARAGE. A welcoming covered front porch opens to an impressive wide foyer, immediately setting the tone for a home filled with architectural detail and designer-selected finishes. At the front of the home, the private second owner's suite includes a large walk-in closet and spacious en suite bath with dual sinks and an oversized walk-in shower, creating an exceptional arrangement for multigenerational living or extended guests. A second first-floor guest bedroom also enjoys its own private en suite bath. Wood-look tile flooring flows throughout the first floor, complemented by crown molding, tray ceilings, decorative wall treatments and distinctive model-home details throughout. At the center of the home, the expansive kitchen and great room are bright, open and designed for gathering. The kitchen features 42-inch upper cabinetry, quartz countertops, an oversized island, stainless vent hood over a gas cooktop, wall oven and microwave, large walk-in pantry and a separate butler's station that makes an ideal coffee or beverage bar. Two sets of sliding doors extend the living space to the covered and screened lanai, where sweeping views across the surrounding hills and toward the distant golf course create a beautiful backdrop. Privately positioned at the rear of the first floor, the primary owner's suite is a standout with a wood-inlay tray ceiling, crown molding and an impressive en suite bath featuring separate dual vanities, soaking tub and large walk-in shower. A convenient drop zone from the garage, dedicated laundry room and stylish powder bath complete the first level. Wood stair treads lead upstairs to an enormous 23' x 16' game room, separate private office, full bath with dual-sink vanity and two generously sized bedrooms, creating an entire second-floor retreat. Even the oversized three-car garage offers impressive ceiling height and excellent potential for elevated storage. Southern Hills offers a setting unlike so many Florida communities, characterized by rolling terrain, mature live oaks, winding streets and panoramic views. The private Southern Hills Plantation Club is centered around an 18-hole Pete Dye Signature championship golf course, with club amenities including dining, resort-style swimming, fitness, tennis, pickleball, spa services and a full calendar of social activities. The Manors offers an appealing low-maintenance lifestyle, with quarterly HOA services that include lawn care, mulch, irrigation, exterior painting and cable/internet. This is more than an opportunity to own the former Solstice model. It is an opportunity to experience one of Brooksville's most distinctive country-club communities in a home that has never been lived in.
