In real estate, they say it’s all about location—but this home delivers something far more powerful. This is Carrollwood Village Phase I! This is Golf Crest! And opportunities like this simply do not come along often. Carrollwood Village is among Tampa Bay’s most enduring and desirable communities, known for its tree-lined streets, established homes, pride of ownership, and timeless appeal. Within this coveted setting, Phase I’s Golf Crest enclave stands in a class of its own, offering space, character, and long-term value that newer neighborhoods simply can’t replicate. Set on a generous .33-acre lot, surrounded by mature landscaping and canopy trees, this 4BR/2.5BA home offers a rare and attainable entry point into one of Carrollwood Village’s most sought-after sections—at a value nearly unheard of in today’s market. Recent listings and sales within the past six months in this immediate area have ranged from the mid-$600,000s up to over $1.1M, making this wonderfully maintained home an exceptional opportunity for buyers who understand the power of buying well in a premier neighborhood. Life here unfolds effortlessly. Mornings begin in the climate-controlled Florida room, overlooking a sparkling pool with a cascading water feature. Afternoons are spent poolside on the paver deck—your own private retreat. Evenings are made for gathering, unwinding, and enjoying the kind of everyday moments that turn a house into a home. Inside, the thoughtful floor plan is both flexible and functional, featuring a downstairs primary suite with French doors leading directly to the pool and a comfortable en-suite bath. A second first-floor bedroom—ideal for a home office or den—adds versatility, while two spacious upstairs bedrooms provide room to grow, host, or create dedicated work-from-home spaces. Major updates deliver immediate peace of mind, including a NEW ROOF (2025), along with newer windows, HVAC, and water systems—allowing the next owner to focus on personalization rather than repairs. What truly sets this home apart, however, is the community itself. Carrollwood Village Phase I is defined by long-established homes, a well-run HOA, beautiful parks, cultural amenities, and a sense of place that continues to appreciate—both in value and desirability. This is not just a home... It’s a rare opportunity to secure a foothold in one of Tampa Bay’s most coveted neighborhoods—at a price point that stands well below recent market activity. Location draws you in. Value, lifestyle, and long-term potential bring you home.
