Seller is offering $2,000 towards buyer's closing costs for paint to make it your own! Built in 2023, this 5-bedroom, 3-bath home in Barrington at Sterling Hill offers 2,630 square feet of well-planned space. Just inside the entry, a flex room can be a home office, a formal dining area, or whatever fits your routine. The kitchen has granite countertops and stainless steel appliances and opens to the main living area, so everything stays connected. Upstairs, a loft/bonus room adds a second living space for a media room, playroom, or quiet retreat. Out back, a 15x20 open-air covered patio extension gives you a shaded spot to grill, host friends, or unwind in the evening and it leads to a newly fenced and private yard. With a 2023 build, the roof, AC system, and water heater are all just a few years into their lifespan, and the HVAC was just serviced. Sterling Hill is a gated community with two clubhouses, each with a pool and fitness center, plus pickleball, tennis, and basketball courts, beach volleyball, a splash pad, playgrounds, a dog park, and walking trails. Nearby magnet schools include Challenger K-8, Chocachatti Elementary, and Nature Coast Technical High School, and shopping, dining, and the Suncoast Parkway are all close by for an easy commute to Tampa.
