3 Beds ⋅ 2 Baths ⋅ Star Farms SubDv. ⋅ 34211 Zip Code
The only villa for sale in Star Farms with a water view. Built in 2025, it backs to a pond, and the screened lanai faces southwest, so evenings end with the sun going down over the water. Inside are three bedrooms, two baths and an open great room that looks straight out to the view. Luxury vinyl plank runs through the main living areas, and the kitchen pairs Winter White granite with 42-inch white shaker cabinetry and stainless appliances. The split plan puts the primary suite at the back of the home — walk-in closet, tiled walk-in shower — away from the two guest rooms, and the third bedroom works just as easily as a home office. An attached two-car garage completes the plan. Three things separate this villa from the new construction down the street: a concrete tile roof instead of shingle, a screened lanai instead of an open one, and a 6,327-square-foot homesite larger than the standard lot. The refrigerator, washer, dryer and blinds all convey, and it's available now rather than months from now. Star Farms is a gated 1,300-acre village built around its amenities, and this villa's dues include the full campus: the Resort Club with its resort-style pool, poolside dining and fitness facilities, Junction Place, Taylor Park, sport courts, pet parks, and a three-loop greenway and trail system for walking and biking, with a year-round activity calendar. The villa neighborhoods also have the Adventure Retreat to themselves: a private amenity center with its own resort pool and resistance pool, hot tub, gym and yoga room, pickleball, tennis and bocce courts, a barbecue area, gas fire table and billiards. A K-8 school sits adjacent to the community, and reciprocal access to the Saddlestone amenities is coming. Low-maintenance living — the association handles lawn care, irrigation, mulch and sprinklers, so weekends stay yours. Minutes to I-75, shopping and dining, and a short drive to the Gulf beaches.
